Break
My bf of 3 years confessed that he isn’t sure if he loves me romantically anymore. I’ve known something was off for a while now but it’s still devastating for me. He said he needs a break to figure out where his feelings stand. I suggested a week or two, but said it would be longer. He couldn’t give me a timeline but from what I gathered, anywhere from 1-6 months.
During this time he said he doesn’t expect me to wait for him because he knows that would be unfair. I know that many relationships don’t survive breaks, and that they’re just excuses when someone isn’t brave enough to actually break up, but I truly believe he’s confused and that is why he suggested a break instead of a break up.
I love him so much. This is the person I genuinely thought was the one, and I’m not a hopeless romantic type of person. I know relationships go through trials and I so want to believe this is one of them and that we will come out stronger but I also know that I can’t be giving myself false hope.
I don’t know how long this is going to last. I’m just assuming he will let me know when he knows either way. But I’m so heartbroken and I can’t describe how much I wish for us to be where we were a few months ago, when we were so in love and happy.
How do I get through this? I can’t help that I’m just hoping for him to come back so should I convince myself it’s fully over?

If you figure it out please share........ i recently within the last year find i am not feeling anything close to what i once did for my spouse........... i have worked out almost every scene in my head and i do not see a road back ..... once love has faded or is gone i do not see it relighted but i suppose there are exceptions .....plan for the worst but hope for the best.
I am in the same boat as you. But my ex wanted a break because he doesn’t know what he wants. He’s like we can still talk and we may or may not get together again.
after a week of not seeing him he came by and all my emotions came back. I need space from him.
I have my own business and I am trying to only focus on that and myself. But this is so hard! Let me know if you need support I understand.
I thought my ex was the love of my life too we were together 2.5 years
Sorry to hear about this. I hope that you guys get everything figured out, if you do I’m sure that it’ll give you guys both peace of mind. For now always remember to take care of yourself and your mental health.
Hey,
I can understand the situation coz I'm also going through the same situation now, but the difference is he still love me but with no commitments, and we took brk for 2 yrs. I don't know what kind of brk is this. He don't want me to wait for him but he can't say break up to me. Actually I'm stuck in between waiting and letting go. I don't know what to do. Anyway don't worry, don't be sad, don't make too much hope, think about yourself. If he come back that means he is for you. If he doesn't then it means time to let go. You are not alone🤗🤗.
