Cupid’s Advice:
Sometimes space is needed in a relationship, but too much space can hurt your relationship. Cupid has some advice on some things to consider before having an on-again-off-again relationship:
1. Time: Having a permanent on and off relationship is never healthy. You can’t spend most of your time broken up because it poses the question of why you are even together in the first place. When deciding to break up, make sure you pay attention to how much time you are spending apart. Remember, when you are apart, you are teaching each other how to live without each other. Be careful; you might end up falling in love with the single life instead of your partner.

2. Respect: If you and your partner anticipate getting back together, make sure you both respect your relationship. A break is not meant for one or both of you to be out partying and hooking up with other people. Remember, a break is because things aren’t working and if you are considering getting back together, then you need to spend the time working on yourself. Sometimes space is needed, but don’t do anything you will regret.

Compromise: Being in an on and off relationship is hard enough, but remember to work through the issues. Relationships are two sided so as you’re working through things, keep in mind that sometimes you have to negotiate. While you shouldn’t have to put up with disrespect or cheating, simple things like communication and quality time problems can easily be solved.
