Answer

How can couples talk about needing space without creating distance?

Be specific about the kind of space you need and when you expect to be available again. You might say that you need quiet after work but would like to talk later. A walk along Passeig Mallorca or sitting side by side at home can make reconnecting feel easier than trying to have an intense conversation straight away.
