Your Boyfriend wants to take a break – What does it mean?
As this is man you’re dealing with the chances are you shouldn’t immediately assume that the relationship is over. It’s unusual for a man not to tell you to your face how he is feeling. Men in addition will not try to hide their feelings and don’t have a hidden agenda.
Women do tend to read too much into situations, but you shouldn’t as things will smooth a lot better if you just believe what he says.
He wants you both to take a break from things. He most probably needs to distance himself for a while to work out what he wants. That’s really about it.
He may well come to the conclusion during his thinking time that he loves you more than he thought. It’s entirely possible that the split for a while can make you both stronger and better as you value each other’s company more.

It’s important that you talk to your boyfriend if he is still dead set on the break up happening. If he wants to re-evaluate his life then after you’ve spoken to him and told him your feelings, let him to just that and respect this.
It’s important to try and set a trial period of say a month when you will be apart and see how that goes. Meet for a coffee maybe at the end of this month off to see if there is any change.
Don’t worry during this time about your relationship or what state it’s in. Re-evaluate the direction your life is going in by utilizing this time off as well. Make an effort to work out whether you are better off single or in a relationship.
