My boyfriend wanted a break does what he is saying means he never wants to see me again?

[Anonymous]

I asked him a few days after he wanted a break when he wants to see me next and he said Just want time alone I said ok why is that? how long is that and he said he just want to be alone I said I don’t want it to be forever where I can’t see you he said he don’t have a timeline of when he will see me it’s up to him when it’s ready. Does this means I will never see him again?

A break? Assume it's over. Don't wait for him, date other people if you get an attractive invitation.

But he said there is no timeline on when I can see you again what does this mean?

[slatyb]

It's not your job to interpret his tea leaves. If someone says "I want a break", and you aren't living with them, assume they mean "I'm breaking up". Tell them "OK, but I'm not going to wait for you." And don't wait.

It means he wants the freedom to fuck other girls guilt-free and have you wait around for him.

[Asker]

Really? How?

[beenherebefore]

If he decides not continuing seeing you he needs to communicate that. You should not put your life on pause indefinitely. But for now as he said he needed some time I would leave him alone and wouldn't initiate communication unless he does, I would probably give him a couple of weeks for him to settle his mind if he doesn't say anything I would start feeling disrespected and break things off myself.

People that are deeply attracted to each other don't want breaks.

Breaks are proof you can't sustain a committed relationship with someone. You may as well dump him.

[FreyaRed]

Maybe he just want to see if he misses you?

[Asker]

What do you mean about that?

[MasterKS]

sounds so.

[Asker]

How? If he never wanted to see me he would say never call me again right?

[MasterKS]
