My husband and I (before we got married) took a break for about 6 months. We were living together and I felt like the relationship was going nowhere. So I got back from a trip and we broke it off. I moved out on my own...and did a lot of thinking. I realized that he was the person that I wanted in my life and vice-versa. We were engaged 6 months later(april 05) and married by the end of 2005. I honestly feel that if we hadn't split up, we wouldn't be married today simply because we had both gotten far too comfortable with the crappyness we were in together. Did he date others? No...did I? No, but it gave us both time to think about what we really wanted.

Well, now that you're married, there are no breaks for real. You've got to work out whatever it is you two go through, unless someone cheats or verbal and physical abuse is involved, God forbid that happen in your marriage. I only wish you two the best and hope you stay together forever, the way it should be with NO breaks this time.

Well duh, you don't get to take breaks during marriage...except for maybe my trips to France with my students that my husband refuses to come on because he doesn't want to chaperone teens in Paris. LOL
