If you decide to take a "break" with a relationship, how long should it last?
Because I want it to be enouph time to allow thinking and time for ourselves, but not too long so that we dont fall out of love or just something like that
Any advice??
Thanks in advance!

There is a such thing as a break. This is our second one, it just gives you time to re-evaluate your relationship and makes you appreciate it more!
Please just ask if u actually have an answer about the time limit, thats all I want to know
thnx

We arent taking a break to see other people.
The break is mainly to just think about the relationship and make sure its what we both want.

Breaks in a relationship can be a little weird......and painful. But I think in the long run they can be a great thing. My boyfriend and I have been together for 7 years now and 2 years ago we took a break. Ours lasted about 6 months but we still talked a lot and hung out, just not as much. I just went and stayed with a friend for awhile. I think once you're apart for awhile you realize how much you really love and care for the person and when you do decide to get back together you appreciate things more and don't take each other for granted nearly as much. I don't know where we'd be today if we hadn't taken our break. Good luck!!

No such thing. Each of the two times I took a 'break' from a relationship, when I came back to it we had the same problems. If you feel like you need a break it's time you say "check please" and get the heck outta there. Regardless of who asked for the break, it's time to go.
These things happen unfortunatly to a lot of people. My advice to you is to never settle. If you're unhappy the get out of there. No amount of counsling or therapy can fix these things. As the saying goes "there are plenty of other fish in the sea" :)

If you'd consider taking a break, you need to just break up already. It's apparent that you aren't in love if you think it's that important to take a break. Or, alternatively, you've been spending too much time together . . . I mean, you're always hanging out together or talking to each other on the phone. That can be fixed by simply restricting the time you spend on the phone or together, etc. I mean, don't just say "we're going to talk on the phone for no longer than 30 minutes" . . . I mean say "let's save it for the date, so we have something to talk about". But I think it's more likely that you just need to break up. Good luck!

I think no more than 2 weeks. A month is too long. If you can be away from each other for 2 weeks and not miss each other, then you should rethink your relationship. If you love each other you will be dying to get back together before the 2 weeks. Just my humble opinion. And while your apart I think you should have some kind of contact even if its just texting or leaving messages.

Why take a break at all? All that usually means is that you want to try other people for a while and pretend that you're not cheating. Either commit to the relationship or don't. Stop playing games.

a million. It replace into an undesirable courting. It lasted 3 and a nil.5 years, and it ought to have lasted a summer season. 2. My pal, or rather my boyfriend's maximum suitable pal who I had began to think of of as my pal, ended his friendships with us over unhappiness and harm. rather, we did issues he seen hurtful, and he feels that no acquaintances ought to ever harm one yet another, even with the help of twist of fate. I say he's unrealistic, knew what he replace into entering into, did no longer stay as much as his end of the coolest purchase, and ended 2 friendships without even lots as a talk approximately it. So, no longer lots of a chum first of all. 3. Um . . . never rather had one. i will good say that i do no longer undergo in strategies a time as quickly as I ever subscribed to any faith. 4. mastercard . . . enable's no longer bypass there.
