Boyfriend wants a break?
My boyfriend of just over a year says he wants a break and that he doesn't want to break up yet. He also insists on still picking me up from work and for us to IM. Some of the things he has said that lead up to this is how I don't talk about it when I'm upset and I take forever to change. He has also been hanging out with single friends and admits that he is jealous how they can go and talk up a pretty girl. Before the break he seemed more interested in our female friends and kept trying to hang out with girls, inviting them camping, ect. I don't know how to react to this, and I realize no one can tell me exactly what to do because everyone's situation is different, but some help would be much appreciated.

On the show, "Seinfeld" breaking up in a relationship is likened to tipping over a vending machine; it isn't just one push that will do it - it takes many repeated pushes until the darn thing finally falls down. It sounds like your boyfriend is making that first push. You can expect a lot of literal back-and-forth, he-loves-me/he-loves-me-not. More often than not, the thing eventually tips over. More often than not, you are both, eventually, thankful it did.

Translation:
I do not want you. I will never marry you. I do not even want to have kids with you, but hey, if you are willing, I would love to call you whenever I want to have sex and we can get together. Is that cool? Let me know. I will be waiting and when I find someone else better than you, I can say I told you so.
