Gotta do it when you're traveling.

Which is what they're doing.

The van they are building is a travel van. When you travel, you sacrifice personal space while traveling.

What does that have to do with the sacrifice of personal space being a negative for most couples? I am just confused what you mean I guess.

He's the one who said it. Not me.

I said liking someone doesn't mean you're immune to resentment and emotional stress - even if you like them a lot. People need their personal space, and they're allowed to have their own boundaries. You shouldn't have to give those up just because you like someone. And refusing to give up your boundaries doesn't mean you dislike someone. It means you have self respect.

Right.

Which are why first vacations or road trips are a big test for new couples.

Because you need to sacrifice some of your personal space to travel.
