If  a guy say he "wants his space to do his own thing" does that always mean he wants to go off and f#$%

No, it's a guy thing.  Read Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus - it explains a lot about how men live (mentally) in a cave and like to go back there regularly!

If you are not in a relationship, then the line has already been drawn.  He's overstepping his boundaries, and needs to be put in his place.  If he's possessive and you're not in a relationship already, please don't get into a relationship with him.

sounds like he wants s*x with you,  the decision is yours   if you dont want to jsut explain to him that you dont if not...have fun ;)

It means he doesn't want to offend you I would imagine.  No offense but girls get mad about the stupist things (yes I know men do to)  A guy that is saying what ever you want to do is usualy trying not to make a mistake.

yea it can mean something is on there mind or they just did something bad and there concious is bothering them. Or maybe they don't want to be bothered sometimes females can be smothering and need to know a man likes to be alone sometimes. Don't call him as much show that its not stressing you . When he wants to go out say have fun.. Me and my baby are like that and his friends say we have a best friend relationship rather then a couple relationship

well it depends on the situation. if they want space for an extended amount of time and they want to see other people, you absolutely shouldn't. if they just need some space to think about stuff but fool around with others, and you care about this person, and where it's going, then yeah. basically, keep it at the same level that they are. you know?

Guys aren't the only ones who do this.  I think the reasoning is that they want to feel wanted.  This way they kind of broke up but can still claim a relationship while they seek or commit more time to another relationship.\n\nI had an ex girlfriend tell me whs wanted to "take a break".  I gave her a break, I dumped her.  There are no "breaks" in relationships.  You are either in or out.  But that's me personally.  If you want your space, I'll give it to you, and I'll find someone that wants me in their space.  Not anymore though, I'm married.\n\nHope that helps.

Ive had the same problem. The way I would handle it would be to tell her as it is. Just say "listen, im not tryin to be mean just please let me have my space, stop copiing my style and get your own please" And walk away.

Sounds to me like hes had enough of your fussing.  How often do you do this.  Maybe he sees you as a nag, and hes just had enough. I think the taking the key of the key ring is a sure indicator that hes not happy and asking you to pick up your stuff is another sure indicator that he has had enough.  Sure, he may need his space, but it sounds to me like its more than that.  The fussing bit makes me a bit suspicious and I reckon hes just had enough of the fussing.  Maybe he still loves you, I dont know,  maybe hes just sick of the "fussing".  Maybe the simplest thing would be to talk to him....ask him what the reasons are he want you to pick up your stuff.  If its because you nag at him all the time and you want to keep him, then youve got to find a way to stop nagging and assure him you will stop doing it.  It may not be that reason at all...but he is the only one who knows the reason, so it is him you need to be asking.\n\nGood luck

See, I never understood how people always ask for their space.  My wife and I share the same space, and do not yearn to have our own time.  If she wants to go shopping or work out, she asks if I want to come...I will go if I feel like it, but she doesn't force me to go or not go.  Just do what you want to do, and if he wants to participate, let him.  If he doesn't, then you have your time.  Is he right for you if you don't want him around for some of your activities?  Anyways, if you want him to realize that you want your space, tell him "I need a bit of space."  Simple

Sounds like he meant it, he just wants to prove it to you through his actions .... guys just don't know what to say .... wouldn't you want him to show you through his actions or would you rather he just said 'Of course I meant it' and not really mean it.

That's normal.  He could get the job done on his own, take matters into his own hands, if you don't want to.\n\nWould you rather that he didn't want to touch you with a ten foot pole??\n\nI would take advantage of it while you can.  Don't you like too have sex with him?

They *always* want it, but it's not the *only* thing they want.\n\nBut, in many cases it may be the only thing some of them want from you, so that's what you need to separate out, and spend your time with the ones who want more from you.

Honey, at the risk of sounding mean, you have to get a life! You both do! If you tell him that you need some space, he will think he did something wrong.You should probably back off slowly and encourage him to hang out with his friends or do other things, while you do your own thing . Good luck!

maybe he feel a little cluttered just give him a little space and maybe his friends be saying he "whipped"
