hello sutanhartanto, here are my thoughts about your discussion based on my own experienced. if my hubby says "leave me alone" i have to feel if he is serious or not, consider his tone and body language coz he is such a playful guy and it will be hard to tell just based on his words. if i couldnt feel it based on my senses, sometimes i will ask him if he is serious or not BUT often times i will just leave the room and let him do what he needs and wants to do. he is a busy man and he works at home and i know stress can make him want to just focus and dont want to be bothered by me and even our dog. i believe that we all need our own time and space as it helps us to rejuvinate and or focus to what we are doing. sometimes my hubby will shut his office door and that is my signal that he needs to be alone and not be bothered coz of his work. i will just wait till he opens the door and talks to him. sometimes he will tell me before hand that he needs sometime to be alone and just let him be, pretend that he dont exist and i will just give in. i do the same to him and it helps our relationship to be stronger and understand each other's needs and wants in a deeper sense. btw, if he say the word leave me alone in teh middle of a fight (which is almost never OTHER than me) i am not leaving the room coz we need to talk and fixed our relationship. he always tells me that hiding and ignoring a conflict is not the answer so we always talk and figure the why's, how, what and other questions that causes the arguement. have a good one!

She probably does. But whether you do it or not depends on you and how well you know your partner. Sometimes they mean it because the want to cry. It helps if you give your shoulder and just keep quiet. But if you are the cause of saying leave me alone, than you probably should.

For me it depends on the situation and reason for the fight.I think there is no need to worry mush about it if our partner is good and understanding some times this type of incident happens in every ones life.Little fight and quarelling is good for bonding the love and good relationship.If it exceeds the limit,then marriage life fails.

Oh no! women are full of mask sometimes. Once she said "Go away, leave me alone" but deep inside her heart said "Don't go, please stay, i dare you when you go, you pay for that!"LOL. How do we can know she is lying or not just look into her eyes or her attitude. Don't see it with emotional feeling. Breath...breath.. sabar.. (patient)

hi dian sinta. thx for confirming that's a great information. it will stops me from making a big mistake. actually my girlfriend have a special idiom if she feel hurt or angry; maybe because i wrongly say something, she will say "sorry for disturbing" or something like that. thx for being here
27 Jun 08
He or She may mean it,depending on what has happen and which may warrant such a statement from her. But,there is need for you to confirm from her if she really meant what she just said,if not,you might likely assume she meant it,but she just said it at of annoyance of what transpire between both of you. SO.THERE IS NEED FOR YOU TO CONFIRM THE STAMEMENT FROM HIM/HER BEFORE YOU CONCLUDE WHATHER SHE MEAN IT OR NOT. I got this idea from my former lover b4 we finally broke,she said it over two times and later said after her anger has come down that she never meant that.

Yeah may b she does, for that moment. If she is upset or not in a good sdtate to have conversation with you, she can say that, better be off when she says off, or else, you could end up fighting. When i say my husband to leave me alone, i really mean it, at least for the time being.

people can be stubborn sometimes,, I'll admit I get stubborn at times lol, but it all depends on the situation, there's been times when I say 'leave me alone' but really deep down I want to be comforted, but other times it comes to the point that I need my space and time to think, usually my partner can tell by the tone of my voice.

i think it depends on the person.. in a fight some one might say that in their emo state but really needs to be talked to to fix it and then there are others that if you dont you get punched so you really just gotta figure it out based on each person
• Indonesia

of course i will let her alone to avoid getting punched. thx for responding...

Hi sutanhartanto, If he is going to say that i will be gone for a second.BUt i dont think that it is seriuos.That defends on hos he is saying it.Like me if i am really mad.I mostly said Leave me alone, But that doesnt mean to leave me alone w/ his whole life. I asked to leave me alone so we avoid more irritation to each other.To stop the fight already or sometimes i just cant take fighting anymore so i rather tell him leave me alone. ASking him to leave me alone make me more calm and back to normal again. Greetings from Che!

It just depends on the situation both of you are in. But most of the time, saying "leave me alone" means "come back to me later and comfort me". Maybe she just needs some time to sort things out or compose herself. You yourself could even tell if she really means it or not. If you are a good partner, then you would know what your partner is trying to say or what she needs.

yha in my opinion ,everyone need some private place and time which can not share with anybody besides herself,there she could reflect on her own thoughts and feelings, this do not mean others .....haha,i think some time you also would like stay alone...haha ,is only my own view.

Most likely no she does.. if she is mad and tells you that she wants you to approach her in a calm and and soothing way and comfort her
