This is interesting. I never really thought about it.
My husband works 7-4 and I work 9-5, so I don't see much of him in the mornings. He's home when I get home and we'll spend time together cooking, doing an activity or just lounging on the same couch while he plays video games and I browse the internet on my laptop. I'm out for a few hours Tuesday nights at agility classes and my husband claims that he gets bored and lonely without me around. However, it's just one day a week so as far as I'm concerned he can cope. I normally walk the dogs on my own and that can be for 30-60+ minutes each evening. We go to bed together each night.
Weekends are whatever. We normally shop, play and see friends together. It's an unusual weekend when he goes off to see friends without me. A couple weekends a month I'll go off on my own to attend a trial or demo for one day out of the weekend. I used to be away doing demos almost every long weekend but my husband wasn't happy with us being unable to go out of town for them so now I try to keep it to a minimum.
I consider us both laid back and independent. But then I think about how we almost literally never run errands without the other and I think it's kind of excessive. But we've been best friends for over a decade and we enjoy each other's company. I think my husband could use a few more local friends and some more hobbies that keep him busy when I'm not around, but to date it's been fine.
