If someone says "I need space" it means that they need to take some time away from the relationship in order to decide how to articulate their needs, wants, and expectations. Someone's need for space doesn't mean you did anything wrong. A need for space may not exclusively be relationship based, it can also be because of stress in other areas of a person's life. Sometimes, separation is required in order for growth.
