do u think that a couple should take a break and work out problems or stay together and work it out?

Answer 1

Stay together and work it out...that's the idea, if you take a break, unless ya'll are freakin swingers, ya'll might as well just end up going back into the single's pool. Taking a break isn't taking a break, it's lookin for someone else that will make you happier, or seeing if the idea of you don't know what you have until its gone works. Ends up in a fiasco either way...rarely would it be, okay i've had some me time, let's get back and have a great relationship. Most the time its..."who's that you're talking to!" or "I want us to be together again....what..what do you mean you've found someone else?" or time was taken but when ya'll got together you still got pissed off the same sh*t and decided to make it 'routine' to have 'time outs.' While if you do like the old traditional relationships have done....which is probably why they LAST....and work it out TOGETHER...then you can either: find a compromise or solution, deal with it, and just make your bond stronger....or realize that whatever it may be, can reveal that a genuine bond or relationship just will NOT work, and whatever was is practically and LITERALLY dead (this is if problems last for months, weeks, not just a damn few days....or 4 hours....patience is a virtue.) and THEN break up.
People nowadays say oh yea, casually date, see lots of other people, relationship bad? Take a break and go look for what's better....this is AMERICA....and yet....we're the only damn country with the HIGHEST divorce rate in america, probably the most adultery-loving, and FORNICATIN country too.....so honestly that whole free-willed f*ck everyone until the perfect d*ck or p*ssy fits concept is obviously WHACK....and you notice lots of OLD couples been married what? 50 years, 34 years, anything above 20.....STILL TOGETHER....and for some STILL HAPPY? Yea if it ain't broke, don't fix it....and apparently what my parents, my grandparents, and my great great grandparents had i'll keep as tradition, and STAY happily married with someone who shares the same tradition.

Answer 2

A couple creates a stronger bond when they work out their problems together. Working things out seperately does nothing. Because they get back together only to encounter another problem and have to take another "break". The relationship will be off and on again every time a problem comes up.
Couples who work together, stay together. ;)

Answer 3

Taking a break can be disastrous, second-hand experience: just look at Ross and Rachel from Friends... Stupid reference, I know, but really, if there's a problem between two people, the only way they'll fix it is if they're working at it- presumably while they're together. Taking a break means stepping back from the problem and the only time it's likely to work is if one or both of the parties need time to cool down and reevaluate their stance. Other than that short period of time, taking a break just means walking away from the problem and hoping it will go away. Not healthy.

Answer 4

Breaks in my opinion are excuses. A strong couple cna stay together and work out their problems, thats how married people do it. They get in arguments and then work it out, not get a divorce or separate because of every issue.

Answer 5

It depends on how long the relationship has been going on if you consistently tried to fix a problem for example: communication and it has not been corrected. Can it be fixed working together, since you need to communicate to work things out. It depends on why the relationship ended.

Answer 6

staying together is better because breaking up or taking a break isn't really working things out....they should work them out together....not apart

Answer 7

Stay together and pass through the problem together to help bond the relationship...

Answer 8

I think you should stay together when you are trying to work through things, it shows you're commited to finding a resolution.

Answer 9

depends on the problem ,but I think that taking a break will bring anger and resentment from the partner that doesn't want it and councillors do think its better to deal with problems before you break up ,after is sometimes to late.
