She can be playing games and you can be reading a book. She stops playing and you ask her "how was the game?", "pretty good, how about your book?", "it's cool, not that great though. Wanna eat something maybe?", "sure".
One of the reasons couples don't last nowadays is because nobody knows how to be alone and how to leave people alone. You're a couple, not siamese. They believe it is about being on top of the other party like a growing cancer when it's about the simplicity of keeping company in your solitude.
And I blame extroverted psychopaths for this.
