*They're too busy. Perhaps with work etc.
*Something happened with your relationship and it's necessary to take time away from each other. Basically, it's make or break time. If you miss each other and want it to work, you get back together. If not, it's over.
*Personal reasons such as death for example. Someone will need time to get over this and alot of people like to be on their own during that time.
Breaks can do couples good.. but the way I personally see it is; "If you want to be in the relationship, don't run away from it." Stay together and work whatever you need to, out. If you need time away to do that, it's hard to get back to how you were etc and I think it's rather pointless unless you 100% know you will get back together and everything will be great - but if that's the case, there's no need for the break in the first place. If that makes sense.. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]
EXTREMERACERX02 answered Wednesday October 24 2007, 5:17 am: The term most used would be "Taking A Break". I think that "Taking A Break" doesnt work most of the time. Once a relationship hits that point where the relationship needs a break it's pretty much over. It's possible though to not talk to one another for like a week though to allow one to think about things. [ EXTREMERACERX02's advice column | Ask EXTREMERACERX02 A Question ]
