It works ! A little bit of break sometimes helps to gather our thoughts and resume the relationship is a good way :)

I hate when some one says that.. just break up with the person and thats it. If you tell 'em its just a break they'll hang on the thought you'll come back when most of the time that's not what they intent on doing.

Taking a break means taking a step back from a relationship that isn't meeting one or both partner's needs, and reviewing how the relationship fits into their life picture over the long term. It's about re-evaluating or redefining the relationship without the stress of the relationship itself.
