I never thought I'd say these words but -- I feel seen, I feel heard. I'm more into going to parties but I guard my alone time as a sacred duty.
To add my own twist to both of your stories: I just had an amazing date yesterday with someone who thinks like us. Of course it's only been one date so I could be misunderstanding them.
If both parties value their alone time it means scheduling time together is drastically simplified; you both do it only after each other's batteries are recharged, and you won't feel bad if you say no to a meetup :)
Wow, good luck! Hope the dates continue going well, but I bet it's refreshing to be on the same page about that. It's a highly underrated quality for both people to respect each other's time.
Too many go into relationships assuming all of their time will be consumed with each other. In the honeymoon phase, maybe; but not for long after that.
