"HOW DO I PERSUADE MY WIFE THAT I NEED SOME "ME" TIME?"

My wife and I have been married for 12 years. We have had a very good relationship and were good friends prior to our involvement romantically. However, we have never been able to agree on one issue - and despite my naive notion that time will heal, the problem is threatening to destroy our marriage. She does not understand that I need some "my time", because even if we are together, I should still be able to practise sport, take a walk, cycle or any activity, obviously considering that a healthy balance is maintained. She feels that if I really loved her and the kids, I would not require this time alone.

This situation is aggravated by the fact that I travel quite a lot, however this is never "my time" either. Always tied up with customers and colleagues. I feel that I am giving all I can to my work and family -leaving myself unattended. I need sport - and I have always understood that this is important for any human being. We tried doing this together, however we have not got the same physical ability - so I can't see how this could work. We are at serious crossroads and I don't know how to proceed.
