Do you believe in ‘taking a break’ in relationship?

Question

I personally don’t believe in ‘taking a break’. You either talk about the issues and stay or you decide to move on and break up. There’s no in-between.

Answer

my ex wanted to take a break... I ended it

Answer

It depends on the circumstances. Sometimes people need space and distance to figure out who they are and what they want. It's like the old saying if you love something let it go, if it comes back it's yours and if it doesn't it never was. Cheesy but there is some truth to it.

Answer

No breaks in life. Can't pause school for a week or a job for a week. No breaks in relationships. Relationships take work, you work them together otherwise work on yourself solo.

Answer

It depends on the situation between you and your SO. Sometimes a break is healthy. It helps you reflect on yourself and where you’re at, you time.

I believe in it in a long term relationship. if there are issues and you still love each other, working it out apart can work

Answer

Taking a break is code for the man wanting to have sex with other women with the option to get back with you if he can't do better

Answer

I agree. Taking some time and distance to think and breath can be healthy but I wouldn’t consider myself taking a break from the relationship. A break means break up.

Answer

We did after 3 years. Got back together and we are stronger then ever. A year has passed since then and we are expecting a baby.
