what should I do?

Question

So last week Wednesday, my boyfriend told me we needed to take a break from each other for a while... I was absolutely devastated but he made it clear that a break is what he wanted so I told myself that a break is what he’s gonna get. I haven’t called or texted him since that day, but he has made a point of contacting me everyday since, and when he does, he still talks to me like we are together, but he hasn’t said he wants to get back together... I love him and want to be with him but I don’t like not knowing where I stand with him and it’s really stressing me out. I would live it if we could try to work things out but if that’s not his plan I don’t want to continue sitting around waiting for something that’s never gonna happen.... I’d really appreciate any advice you guys can give right now because I really don’t know what to do.

Answer

Honestly a “break” means he wants to fuck or see other people. I don’t want to come off negative or mean but in my experience a break never works out in getting back together and if it does there’s something off about it. I guess it doesn’t ALWAYS have to mean that or end up that way but maybe talk to him and be like why a break? Or find out his intentions.

Answer

Just ask him, does he have intentions of getting back together or not. Just so you don’t waste each other’s time.

Answer

I’ve never agreed to a “break” - I think they’re BS to be honest. You’re either together or not - none of this in-between shit. You either sit down and talk through your issues and figure them out as a couple or you break up, see other people or gain independence or WHATEVER you want to do and if you stumble across each other and want to try again, so be it.
Spending time apart doesn’t solve the issues - it either makes it easier for him to say he wants out because he’s too much of a wuss to just say it straight up or he wants an excuse to string you along while he tries to find someone else to mess around with. Don’t fall for this boy-drama nonsense.

Answer

A break with a good man is like a probation, you should always set parameters at the beginning. Like anything that you do for the first time proceed with caution. A break where you keep talking and doing your normal things is the best way to go. Don’t act like nothing has happened because that’s ignoring the problem. Don’t ignore him because that’s isolation and doesn’t bring you any closer together. Yet, don’t freak out either. It seems he is the only one who needs to think and needs the break. So remain calm let him know with your presence or verbally you are there for him and when he is ready to talk you’ll talk. ( Make sure u are ready though too) If you are 100% resolved that you want to be in a relationship with him it is ok to tell him while you are on the break so he knows where you stand.
