I'm currently on a break. The last relationship I was in was back in January and as of the time of this writing that was about three months ago. I haven't really attempted to "talk" to anyone in that time because of one simple reason: I'm burned out. But I'm getting close to being ready to hop right back into the dating scene.
We all know at least one person who is always, and I mean ALWAYS, in a relationship. They'll date someone. They'll break up. And then, pretty soon they're dating someone new and it's a revolving door of new people coming in and out.
I'll admit that for a while, that was me. During my freshman year through some of my junior year of college, I was dating just like that. And I found out if I kept going the way I was going, then I would not only burn out badly but I would get sick and tired of dating altogether.
So, I got smart and took a step back for a few months.
And now that I'm near the end of my dating sabbatical I can see one thing clearly.
Everyone deserves time away from a relationship to observe what you want and what makes you happy.
So, whether you want a break from dating for a month or a year, just remember that everyone has someone made just for them and a dating sabbatical is just another step towards who you're meant to be with.
