[Always *]

To me, when some one says they want a "break", ok, lets face it, that's a "break up" and to me it sounds as if she is aiming for a full fledged break up but just wants some a chance to clear her head and reevaluate and see if it is official. So you should prepare for the worst. Don't assume you'll get to keep her and be nice and all when you see her, try to make up for what ever you did wrong. It takes 2 to fight, so what ever part you have taken in the problem, whether your the victim or not, be responsible for it, and try to lead it back to a point where it's positive but don't force it cause it might already be to late
