On weekdays, I’d like to spend an hour or less together in the morning before work, then an hour or less together at lunch, then a good hour together in the afternoon after work, and a few hours together at night before bed. But overall, I’m still getting most of the morning and afternoon to myself. On weekends, I’d be free anytime before noon and anytime at night. But overall, it is a must that I have 10-12 hours a day to myself for 7 days a week (unless we’re having a sexathon). Otherwise i might start to feel trapped and want to break things off. What would likely be your available times for spending time with a partner?

I'm retired and she doesn't work, so this might be a typical weekday...
She normally gets up around noon, which gives me time to go to the range with my shooting buddies or play a round of golf- this time with my golf buddies (men have buddies for every pastime). After lunch, she and I will normally spend the afternoon relaxing at the pool. It would eb even more relaxing if she could stop talking for 15 seconds.
Due to hours of prep-time she requires, our going out to dinner following the pool is impossible. Going out to dinner requires I give her three days' notice so that she can plan her bath, her hair, her makeup, her outfit, etc., etc., etc. I can cook, but she much prefers that we sit around in her house, which is where she feels the most comfortable. I get that. Unfortunately, she has an annoying little dog which sheds constantly and whose breath is lethal.
She doesn't cook- she Ubers. She has every restaurant app within 100 miles loaded onto her phone. After a two-hour discussion on what to eat- by which time I'm ready to cook-up her dog, and order is placed, and food arrives. Dinner follows, with her drinking a bottle of white wine. After dinner, conversation continues, only now of a different nature.
As to what happens next, you can put to and two together.
The huge advantage to my being at her house is that I can leave whenever I'm ready. If she's at my house, I won't get rid of her until lunchtime the following morning.
Now, don't get me wrong, she a great lady, and for being age 55 she looks fantastic. Even so, she's high maintenance and requires a lot of attention.

We usually spend maybe 5 or 6 hours together at night. He has a consistent schedule, he leaves early and gets home around 6-7. I’m a server so my schedule is different every week, I also get out at a different time every night depending how busy it is.
The earliest I get home is usually 4 or 5 if I’m just working a lunch. If I work a double, I’ll get home at 8 or 9. Sometimes I close and don’t get home until 11:30 - 12 am. he’s asleep by then if I work that late. So it sucks, sometimes I don’t get to spend time with him at all.I have a random week day and every Saturday off every week. Sometimes he works Saturdays for overtime but he’ll get out an hour earlier so I get to spend Saturday nights with him.
he always has Sundays off so I try to get them off when I can.
If I don't live with them then 2 - 3 evenings a week (2 hours each evening)
Then afternoon onwards on the weekends. Sunday is for myself, rest day
Living together i would see them in the evenings after work probably in the morning briefly depending on our work schedules
Weekends most of the time if we are not doing our own thing. I enjoy my space so I'd have things to do away from him on weekends too
Weekdays - mornings to myself. I don't mind having my partner there and I'll make breakfast but don't start serious conversations. After work, I need a couple hours to chill and get myself back into the social mode. Then I can hang out with my partner for the rest of time, unless one of us has something to attend
Weekends - ideally we mix hangout together as a couple at home and trying something new.

Weekdays 7pm to 10pm or whenever I go to sleep.
Weekends would be different. I'd prefer Friday after I get off work to be my me time until Saturday around 3pm. We would both be expected to be ready/presentable for each other by then even if we were going to stay home that time. Showered, shaved, dressed up how we normally would be if going out regardless. Then we spend the rest of the time together on Saturday after 3pm and wake up together Sunday morning. If we had kids together, Sundays would be family time days until 4pm. We'd have a few hours to ourselves until dinner time.

I do have certain flexibility... so I'd be able to make some time during the morning, the afternoon... and mostly at night hours
I'm sure I could adjust it to her needs or her available time... could also manage to arrange two days off every week, at least Well we aren't living together obv but ig there is nothing stopping us from meeting up every day as I have virtually no responsibilities. usually its once or twice a week for rougly the whole afternoon.
Is that picture if you guys lived together?Late evenings and a weekend day. My schedule is crazy busy
6:00 am up and to the gym
7:00 shower and breakfast
8 to 5 work at day job (I often come home for lunch but its only an hour)
5 to 7 work on the other job
7 to bed cuddle time.
I’ve really never pout so much thought in to it. Like I want time together in most things. But I also totally understand self time. So I might shoot for more time together in the evening and maybe a bit in the morning. Like get coffee together maybe chat a bit but the real time together comes in the evening. And weekends. And even then like I can see making it more of an every once in a while thing where we actually spend the whole day together. But it doesn’t have to be.
There is no one set time. My life is constantly in flux. That's why scheduling is something that needs to be DISCUSSED.
Note to general public: don't just start talking to me. First ask me if I'm busy or not. I guarantee you that you will get a much better result that way.Probably at night cause you know everyone would be busy during the day but during the evenings/nights available. Weekends if both available absolutely and probably will use that whole day doing something either outside or inside
I don't have specific times like that, maybe mostly at night/before bad, or anytime on the weekend, but i feel the same way.
Spending too much time with someone can feel exhausting, so alone time is needed, but my partner/date would have to to know that i'm not pulling away or cheating/dating someone else, i'm just doing my alone time.. time and i still really like them/want to be with them.
Hmm I think everytime after the life's priority like study, sleep, care about kids hmm after that I got the chance to say for him hi I'm back then I told him about my day how was is it and start our favorite time then we sleep 😅
I'm of the mind I'd be perfectly happy with seeing her all damn day everyday but I don't know I guess that's too much and I'm only going by the feeling here. For the reality I could see it at some far off moment being too much but like she gets potty breaks n shit so. I think that's enough.
I usually work weekends in the afternoon and me and her schedule don't really line up but we always have one day a week where it's just us and have a date night usually in the middle of the week. My schedule is always different at different times while her job is 9 to 5 so we always most of the night together.
If we’re staying together I’d wish to workout, prepare and have breakfast with her in the morning before we’re off to work and I’d wish we spend the entire evening together post 7 pm and retire to bed early. In the weekend’s I’d be completely available for her so that we can do whatever we want including steamy cardio sessions 😉😉
We live together and work together. Luckily, our appartment has two small spare bedrooms, so we each have one as a bolt-hole. Where we escape from each other in the evenings.
Well, I have spent so much time with myself and my family that when I was in a relationship, I like spending time with her whenever I wasn't at work or the gym.. So not really a schedule but as much as possible..
I like my me time but I would love to spend time with them at night if I'm not busy.
For me it would be in the evening after about 4:30 PM and during the weekend, rather on Sundays. But if you love each other you make time of course ❤😄
Looking at my past relationship, we both had time for each other the whole fucking day, everyday, besides the times we had to be at work of course or hang out with friends only
My fiance and I work at the same place but anytime we are not working we are together for the most part
Never bc I am single single. The only person that calls me faithfully everyday is scam likely and the only messages I get are from clothing stores telling me they have a sale
No specific time. Depends to each task at hand or lack thereof.. my time js also flexible more-or-less sometimes
