A female United States age 36-40, *ilentPerfection writes:

my boyfriend of 4 years decided he wants a break. i respect the fact that he wants it because i hear when other people take them the relationship is so much stronger in the end if they stay together. but its easier said then done. all i do is think about him. i am 22 he is 26. he never talks to me i always talk to him. the other day i sent him a text asking him why he cant make me understand and if he thinks being mean to me is going to make me end it he is wrong this is what he said "i am not being mean to make you want to end it. i say i need some space and you talk to me everyday. thats not making me want to stay with you" i sit here and tell myself everyday that things are going to work out...i understand i need to give him space and not talk to him...but i dont want him to forget everything we have had i am not worried about anyone else because he is not that type of person he said we might as well see if we are right for each other now before we move on to the next leave such as moving in or marriage...what should i do! i want to be with him so bad!

I can see Twist of Fate. Just doesnt like the idea of breaks. Im on a break but with my g/f. Its hard for me to. Just dont txt him, call him, or anything.. U never know what can happen.. He may come back to u when he is raedy.. or he will stay gone and not come back, but i think 1 month is good.. I just wish breaks wernt so long. As u do probably. But in the end who knows it maye be stronger.. Would be that u waited.. So do so it can be to your advantage :) Look at the bright side of everything.. Dont be negative u only feel worse and make urself depressed..

I am going through the SAME thing right now. I learned that I HAVE to stop talking to him. It just gives me false hope and makes me seem desparate.

It is SO hard to do but you HAVE to do it--no text, email, calls, etc. Let him REALLY miss you and come back to YOU.

Give it ONE month and then talk to him. You can't hold on forever.
