Hate to say it but the best thing to do here is to break off with her and move on. I think I've only heard of one relationship that went better after a "break".

Most of the time, that's true.

It can be different if the couple is married, but two people who are just on and off dating...it typically holds to the rule. When not talking about a married pair, what the dating partner asking for a break actually means: "You're useful, so I don't want to officially dump you just yet. I want to keep you on the backburner in case this other partner doesn't work out better ".

When they say they want a break, stop investing. Pull back, focus on yourself. They have already decided on taking that break regardless of your response. Telling you about it is just to keep you on the line to maintain a commitment for their later convenience. Cancel that commitment, consider them an ex and date someone else. They likely already were.

You can take breaks with each other without being vocal about it. When you have to be vocal and blunt about it then it's a problem.

If she wants to take a break it's time to stand outside her window with a boombox. This will fix everything.

However, there are such things as heavy implication and knowing how to take a hint. You don't want to be the "So there's a chance" kinda guy.

If you are not married and only dating this means you are no longer together and need to find someone else to date.
