Taking a break on our relationship?

Lately I’ve been really confused about my feelings for my boyfriend and I am tired of feeling this way, we have been dating for almost 9 months but it’s gotten to the point where I really don’t want to talk to him at all and I’m not really sure why so I’m trying to figure it out. Would it be okay to ask him for a break? What do y’all think? Any personal experiences y’all would like to share?
