Hell yes. At least for me, it has worked at least once.

But it requires you to really take the break seriously and look at it as a time when you are both living your separate lives and whatever happened during the break, you don't hold it against each other.

With that being said, when I did it, it wasn't like we said "we're taking a break". We just stopped communicating and started doing our own thing and eventually came back together several months later.

would be interested to hear people's opinions
my personal opinion is that they dont work and are usually only offered as a means to cowardly and passively break up by slowly drifing away.
i tell every girl I am with that I treat breaks as break ups. If you wanna come back cool, but best believe I would have been getting it in with other hoes during the "break" and there is a good chance I will have found your replacement too

Nah. It's just a workaround. Women use it to break up permanently or go fukk with someone they've been wanting to fukk with then try to come back to get some love. Also sets a bad precedent in terms of commitment.

Hell I'm still on an 8 year relationship break at the moment :lolbron:

I personally don't think so.

I think what happens is, people take breaks and they adapt to being alone and out of the relationship. And they realize they don't need to be with that person.
Now maybe that's good. But if that's the case, just break it off to begin with.
