She said she loved me and it wasn't a permanent break and that she'd contact me, she just needed to sort her business.It's been four weeks now, which isn't long I guess, but it's killing me not seeing her or hearing from her. I've text a couple of times, to which I've had a response; this is surely a good sign.I know you guys will never know, but how long should I be expecting this break to last/ be waiting before seeing her? Should I ask to see her soon? Would I appear needy doing this?I'm welcome to any views

 "If you love someone let them go"
Which is exactly what you have done, it's hard giving people space when your missing them so much, but when she has finished working on her buisness I'm sure she'll be grateful of the space you have given her.
I wouldn't keep my distance totally, send her a couple of texts a week, keep them light and fun, as I'm sure she's pretty stressed right now.
Maybe you could send her some flowers?, just saying something simple like, "thinking of you, call me soon"
Keep your own interests going and make sure your having fun for you too, going out with your mates etc.
Hopefully she'll be calling you soon wanting to see you.
Hope it all works out.

 Hi. Breaks in a relationship are a real hard time for one or both parties concerned, I know how you feel. We want to contact the person we love and can't understand why they don't want to be with us! But putting pressure on her will certainly seem needy and only make her pull further away. Let her do her thing and you do yours, go out and enjoy yourself and be very cool with her. Make her know what she's missing. Don't chase her it will only chase her away! It's hard but you have to do it! If she loves you she'll come back. Breaks can last one day to a few years so there is no telling how long. I hope things get back to normal for you soon. Take care.
