Guest Posted October 29, 2006 Posted October 29, 2006 I have already seen alot of posts about taking a "break" in the relationship. I just want to find out what people think about my situation. My boyfriend..or I guess ex, not really sure has changed his mind numerous times about "us" and our "relationship" we have currently been dating for over a year and I am in love with him but he doesn't believe me. I have treated him like crap throughout most of our relationship, mainly because I have had problems dealing with his past. I now understand what I did wrong now that he is gone and I am going to get the help I need. I realize there are deeper issues. The first time he told me that we were in different places in our life and he didn't think we would ever be happy together. He told me that he does love me but isn't sure if it's real love although we have talked in the past about getting married, etc. He continued to tell me that there is nothing between us and he just can't go on in the relationship. He also told me that he hasn't been happy and he wants to be happy again. Instead he has been depressed. Now he tells me that he needs to find out how he feels. Well after him breaking up with me. Today we talked and decided to take a "break" this means that me and him will not talk for a total of 2 weeks and he can go and hang out with whoever he wants, talk to whoever he wants during this time. I told him I am not going to see anyone but am going to start going to a counselor. We are also not going to talk for the whole 2 weeks and after this period of time we will get back together and see what should happen with "us." When we decided on this idea he told me that this is what he wanted from the beginning. He said he doesn't know if we will stay together or what not but he just needs some time to himself and find himself again. Any ideas on what you guys think would be appreciated. Thank you for reading!
