She wants to take a break. Ate there any ways I can balance and find a middle ground?

[Anonymous]

She wants to take a break for 5 years, which I think is a extremely long amount of time. Is there any way I can find a middle ground? She says she's not feeling like herself right now and wants to find herself, but I want to be with her along her journey. She's going to cut the relationship form her life but not from anyone else like her friends or family. What should I do?

Assuming this is a legitimate question. . . NOBODY asks for a break of five years! This is just her way of breaking up and trying to avoid some of the drama of a break up. She isn't being honest with you.

She says that she needs a long time to find herself again, and that she hasent lost feelings for me, like I talked to her about it but she says she genuinely wants time for herself and not with me, cutting the relationship from her life but nothing else

[OlderAndWiser]

So she is trying to be convincing.

[Asker]

Is that a bad thing?

How do you feel about your partner being dishonest with you? She is just looking for the easy way out!

5 years? Yeah man that relationship is over. Don’t stick around where you are not wanted, even if it’s hard for you. Start focusing on your own life, wish her the best and move on.

I would say it’s over. Nobody suggests taking a break for five years.

[Asker]

I asked why 5 years and she says because her uni degree will take 5 years

[dustybiker]

She doesn’t expect you to wait that long. She’s just can’t bring herself to be honest.

Omg, even she ask for 1 week it means she want to break up. Don’t you understand?

5 years? Move on and find someone else.
