Hi ladies! My boyfriend of 5 years just broke up with me last Monday. He insisted we needed to take a break to think things through. But when I asked break or breakup... he said it’s the same thing. At first I was a disaster. Now after 11 days, I am still very heartbroken, but I’m seeing that maybe it’s not such a bad idea to have taken a break. I haven’t heard from him since then. I got a little drunk and texted how much I miss him but he didn’t reply. Do you any of you have experience with this? Do people track breaks or “break up” for a while and then get back together and are happier and stronger? Would love anyone who has been through this to give me some advice!
