Yes I know, it’s not and easy thing because you are thinking that this is your go-to person and he/she is having doubts about you and the relationship and this and that…. shut up! Stop seating on the negative side of life ‘space’ is not always about breaking up. This could just get better, you just never know.

Try and maintain your sanity, no matter how difficult it gets, while your partner is having their time out to breathe. Your partner is not trying to hurt or push you away.

2.This is also an opportunity to rethink your life…. ‘me Time’ will do you good

Being in a relationship consumes up most of your time and you barely have your time alone. The break is also likely to feel long and lonely, you will have to get immersed in something to be able to pull through. During the break can be your perfect time. Follow up on a hobby and go holidaying alone and get your mind completely off the break. Focus on making you a better person and love yourself more.

3.Give them the space they asked for 

Try not to think about being with your significant other. Take time to connect with friends, try new sports, stay late at work or do those things that make you happy. Take this as the time to prove to you that you can actually hold yourself together. You have to completely free yourself from your partner for as long as they need it.

4.Don’t obsess over the break

Other than spending your time thinking about space, try thinking about other things. If you get obsessed over the relationships or the time you guys are taking apart, you will end up wanting to get back even before the time is right. If social media will be an issue then you can turn them off for a day or two if that will help you maintain your maturity during the break.
