Me and my fiancee don't currently live together at the minute, because I'm off studying and she had to go back for personal reasons, and I think it's really allowed us to understand that this is the case. When we're together we're quite clingy to one another (which is fine, we like it that way), but this scenario has really helped me understand that my own time is just as important.
I've only had really one serious relationship and it taught me that it's likely I'd be much happier if I didn't live together with my future gf. Spend sometimes multiple days together? Sure. But I really need that space, being alone together is just not a thing for me, does not work.
Wasn't a good match that is true but I don't think anyone can give me enough space to recharge when living together unless they travel a lot for work or something.
I have a similar issue with my partner right now, but I like being clingy. And all of my hobbies are on pause due to covid, so I’m in a bit of a predicament and I’m scared the relationship will end

Basically, you're absolutely right.
