Hi,
Of course I always have to take a break if there is a big problem that bothers me. For problems that occur in your marriage, I think you have the right to do that. As far as it can make you calm and clear thinking to the future of your marriage. Whatever your problem, I hope you can come out. I pray for it.
Nice day

My household problems never finished. Sometimes, I want to go, and leave the house. I want a break from all my problems. However, leaving home, do not make my problem be done, but it will make increasing. I am now, trying to enjoy a problem that I experienced. If I'm very tired, I am trying to find entertainment for me.

Hi ifa
A break is advisable when a couple is mutually in agreement to at the break time work towards strengthening one another. The break will only work if both agree upon getting back together the new way of how to handle the relationship.
By breaking away you now have put a condition and that condition is telling your husband that something has to change. However if you and he upon getting back together do not discuss what is is that needs to change I am afraid that the break may only have done harm then good.
It is good to take a break, but do keep in mind if you and he discuss your return that there is a goal the both of you will be working towards. I understand the feeling of wanting a break away from the issues, but do keep in mind that anytime you do so to a sense, upon returning and nothing has changed it is stating that all is quite alright the way things are.
Do take care of you ifa, and I will continue to pray for you and your children.

Hello HWG,
i hope after this short time of break, he have some time to think of what we will working towards too.
this time i think i don't mind if we just work a partner to grow our child. there is nothing important than that. i am ready to make sacrifice and just take away my feelings.
thanks you so much for the pray

Ifa whatever break you take or anywhere you want to go you wont achieve much if you did not put it down on paper what your problems are and write also what you want in life. Dont forget Calculate your age also. A stalker will always know that you are in some kind of trouble if you are out alone out there at the wrong place and the wrong time, understand?
U want to consider divorce wait at least your children are 12 years and above, its being wise......

Always husband right coz he the head of the house, he gives rules he know what ahead, u just make him happy take care of his belongings always must not ashamed him in front of others in what ever way. Unless if he married you with wrong intention than u feel like yo yo....at the moment just stay at home, write down your need, pros and cons, better still you plan good picture for your marriage, friend also have own problem after you might get wrong advise. Run if he beat you...if he not faithfull fight for your man.

Separation hurts regardless of why it was there.
I've always got each separation as a life lesson, to my shame that lasts long enough to deepen all the lessons from it and I can open again, no heart, because heart heal but the mind.
With time you learn that life does not stop in place for love, no matter how much it hurts, learn to live with pain, you put your order in right thoughts, regain your confidence.
After all life is beautiful and deserves to live as if tomorrow would be the last day, because if you do not take single moments in life, she will not put on your tray.

hi ifa yes sometimes in even the best marriage you need
a break from each other to sort out the problems and
work out how to fix things. I never run across that in
my own marriage as we took care to handle any problems
while they were just little ones. But I know that for a
lot of people its better to just separate for a short
time and figure out whats wrong and mend it.

yup, it works for me...taking a break just to give myself some time to cool down and think clearly helps me a lot in making decisions. i make wiser decisions and i can control my temper or control myself from acting stupidly and later on regret the things i've done. it always takes time to think and figure things out... depending on how complicated things are. anyway i wish you good luck and i hope you'll find the best solutions to your problems soon.

Well ifa..
i am not involved in a serious relationship, so its hard to say from me but if any problem arises like you have mentioned, then definitely i shall seek a break to refresh my mind and continue the relationship again. Hope for the best for you.

It's better to have a break rather than hurting each other that soon.
When we are sad,or been depressed with so much emotions,it's good to have a break.
Get some rest and relax to clear your mind.
Think of a better ways to save everything.
There are up and downs in our lives,could be in our marriage life or even with friendship or siblings relationship.
Taking a break is the best solution...not to ruin a good relationship.
have a good day and keep smiling

Oh... It is quite serious here. So you did not try out that weekend cafeteria idea. I know, it is always best to talk out and work out a solution to the problem. There is no problem that cannot be resolved. (Maybe we dont get to see the solution at times).
Going by your earlier discussions, this step of taking a break away will work for good no doubt but I also see a small sense of risk involved. I think, you already are having a distance between you and your hubby... and somewhere I feel that this step of going out for a break may just have its impact on the distance... But still I think taking that risk is better as you will see the problem from a distance and maybe a third person's view.
Good Luck.
for me, I think we need to go out on some travel as I am quite sick of staying all alone at the house for so many hours and I think this will help us get more close.

Definitely, that is a good idea for it. My ex and I had this communication problem while we were together, and I hold it up for while, until one day we both had this big argument. So, I decided, and she also decided, we should take a little break from it. When I come to think about it, I just knew that we might not be the one for each other. Clear your mind, and think about the future.

Although I'm not married, I know that for me, taking a break from someone or something helps me calm down and not get so wound up. I think you're doing the right thing. Take as much time as you need to figure out what you want to do next, if anything at all.
