"Guy Weekends

Dating over a year and we do not live together. Is it wrong for the guy to have a "Guy" Weekend every 3rd or 4th weekend?

regret is full of missed opportunities.......

No!!! i think it is healthy to have your own space, one weekend a month to have his own space and see his friends what is wrong with that? maybe you should do the same?? too many people devote ALL their time together never having free time alone and this cause's friction. i think at least this guy is straight with you and you know where you stand, once a month is good i think you should take that time also and plan some stuff for yourself too, not sitting waiting for him to get back..

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. 

No way! It's the best thing you can do for your relationship! It allows you to miss him and want him more.

Nothing is wrong with your guy having weekends with his friends every one in awhile! Having your own friends and spending time apart is not only a necessity for a healthy relationship but helps you grow as an individual within your relationship. If you don't let him spend time away from you, he may begin to feel smothered and controlled/manipulated by you, and that is not healthy.

yes! thats totally fine. i have a friend who's completly psycho with her boyfriend and doesnt ever let him hang out with just his friends, and that actually pushes him away from her more. He starts a lot of fights with her because of it. He loves her and loves spending time with her, but he needs his own personal time to keep relationships with his friends too.

After a year, it is still tough sometimes to spend time apart.  Your boyfriend should spend time with his friends.  Trust me, when you hit year two, three, etc., you will look forward to guys night.  It's the perfect opportunity to have girls night!

A guys NIGHT is ok. I would worry about whole WEEKENDS...especially on a regular basis. I've been two-timed very thoroughly by someone in a similar situation!
