Saint Santo Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 first, I don't believe in taking breaks. a few years ago my now-ex asked if we could take a break for a couple weeks. I told her I would leave her permanently if that happened and she quickly backed out of it. we ended up breaking up a year or so alter. what is a break except a way for someone to cheat on their partner without it officially counting? I can understand a partner asking for more space but the idea of a temporary break seems so ridiculous. this isn't the same thing as breaking up and then getting back together, btw.
Jayerjay Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 I see where you're coming from, but I don't think it's ridiculous. People get confused and suffocated in relationships, a break is a way of taking space and figuring out their feelings objectively without clouded judgement from seeing their partner constantly. I do think it's a sign of a confused and possibly immature individual, but some people need it for clear judgement.
CaliBabe Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 I think you are exactly right where it is a chance to hook up with someone else while not techincally cheating. Having your cake and eating it too if you ask me. 1
