I was unsure of what his intentions were for this break, so I asked him how long he was thinking.

and after seeing his therapist asked if I was willing to take a break. But, now, a month later, he is feeling stressed, confused, depressed. There was an "attempt" to break up, but we did not, and worked things out. I am in the same situation with my b/f of 9 months. It might turn out to be the best 3 weeks you ever spent alone. So please try and respect his wishes at this time and take advantage of it yourself to really evaluate where your at in life and where you are headed. It is imperative though that you do respect this time alone and keep it that way.Ĭalling, text messaging, emails etc will just hinder the process of thinking. It may be hard and you will spend a lot of time crying and hurting, but it might just be what you both need to do some clear thinking. Of course you should not have to sit around waiting for months but I think going 2 or 3 weeks without any contact and doing some serious thinking is not unreasonable. So I think you should respect his wishes ans give him some time. Right now everything is too emotional and things could be said that harm each other that may be avoided by having time to calm. You need to evaluate the whole relationship from things that you don't think you have done well to things you aren't happy about with him.Īfter the designated time apart you should be able to discuss it like two adults.Įven giving him 2 weeks to think and taking this time for yourself is OK. I think you should give him his week to think about it and then arrange a day to come together like adults and talk about things you have mulled over in the week that past.Īlthough you don't realise it, right now after him dropping this on you, you need this time to think as well. So we beg and plead and cling on for dear life. This is understandable to some degree as we desperately want to make sure we don't lose them. Usually it is hard on the person wanting the relationship to continue (in this case you) and they fail to respect the wishes of their partner. Don't play his games or let him dictate everything but if he has asked for some time to think then I think it is in your best interests to give it to him.Īsking for a week or two to think about things seems to be a common thing when couples are having trouble. I think at this time the best thing you can do is dive him the space he has asked for.

We all appreciate here that it isn't easy and you must be hurting. We are both in our 30's and I am 5 years older than him. I do love him and he says he still loves me. There of course is a lot more to the relationship issues like him being jealous about my sexual past and us having bad arguments also. I do miss talking to him as we talked at least once a day, but I can't take this anymore and want a decision from him. He said that maybe I be the one to make the decision and I said you aren't putting this all on me now, it was your idea to do this and you need to make the decision. I told him he had to give me an answer yes or no by Sat. He said no but hypothetically if he did what would I do.Īnyway. Tonight I asked him if he had meet another woman and that's why because of a few things he said. For the past month or so he hasn't been interested in sex and I have accused him of cheating but he said he isn't. He also asked if we did break up if we could still remain friends, of course I said no way. Tonight he said he didn't know if a week or two would be enough time that it might take months. I have called and talked to him a few times about pertinent stuff in our lives but then I start in about he really needs to decide and not leave me hanging.

My boyfriend of a little over 2 years has decided he wants at least a week without talking to me to decide if he wants to be in the relationship or not.
