If you're planning on taking a break from your bf/gf what happens? How do breaks work? DO you talk to your bf/gf? Do you see your bf/gf? How do you cope while you're in the break?

I agree with the previous answer that there are no ground rules for a "break" and it is all relative depending upon your relationship. From what i understand a "break" from your partner simply means that you need some time and space apart from each other to re-evaluate both yourselves and your personal relationship. I believe that often this is just what some couples need to get back on track from a difficult relationship. With this in mind i do not reccomend that you date other people instead focus upon your individual and your relationships flaws. A break certainly does not mean the end.Good luck.

Taking a break means that you both are free to date other people, there are no real ground rules that fit everyone, that should be discussed with your partner...depending on how long you have been together, a break is not a great sign if it is not announced and does not have a time limit on when it is over and when you you will be back to seeing each other again....it is often a beginning to the end....if that is not what you want from this relationship then you may want to end it and move on yourself.
