My boyfriend told me he wanted a break after a year of dating. He said he felt like I wasn't trusting him and nagging him. And I admit I had been different. I also found out that he had a dating account that he said he hadn't been on.

He said he needs time to think. I don't even know what to do

Out of my own experience with someone wanting a break, it leads up to me being single, but that's just my own experience, people on here might have or say differently.

 

I also struggled with trusting my recent ex, but, I will say this, going on a break usually ends up with feeling pain, anxiety of all sorts and just wondering what's going to happen. You could be in the limbo if you want to or you can cut ties. I'm not telling you what to do or anything, just saying my own experience. :) while you're feeling that pain of being in limbo you could be healing from your relationship.

Honestly this happened to my friend. His girlfriend wanted a break, they stopped dating for 3 weeks and she slept with some other dude. So honestly I don't see it ending well with a break.

With those two bolded statements, there's nothing to do here but let him know you don't want a "break" but rather, you're going to end the R/S now and then wish him good luck. Anytime someone wants a "break" it means there to chicken to simply end it right then but want to gently ease out of the R/S. Breaks ALWAYS end up breaking up. Couple this with catching him on dating site, the writing is on the wall.

 

 

If you want to handle this like a veteran person who's been around, you'd send that FINAL text, letting him know YOU'RE done and wish him luck. You'd then immediately vanish from his life, block him on social media and have no further contact with him while ignoring him IF he contacted you.

You'd heal from this and then move onto dating others until you find your next connection.
