For some people this works well. I am an introvert, and my alone time is necessary. Having a part of the day only for me is helpful. My partner feels the same way. Our schedules are mostly dictated by work, so we sometimes move closer together schedule-wise on the weekends. It's a good balance for us, and we complement each other more because of it.

I am an extreme introvert and I desperately need time alone. Fortunately Sundays are very slow where I work. I use that time to recharge my battery. Isn’t always enough, but with small children I don’t have opportunities at home. I’d feel guilty sitting in a room alone while she deals with all that chaos.
