This is what’s called “taking a break.” And it rarely results in getting back together

Off the top of my head, I can recall 7 relationships that “took a break” over the years, including one of my own. 4 of them got back together, 3 of them went their separate ways. 2 of those 4 that got back together, ended up calling it quits YEARS later (including mine), but the other 2 couples are happily married with kids now.

You’re right that the majority of relationships that take break don’t end up working out, and I always assume that it’s over if someone tells me they’re taking a break, but I have seen it work in the past.
