What do guys mean by "I just want a break"?

well its better by saying “ its over “ and making things clear then by giving us false hope and making us think that we still have a chance

I’d rather have some guy say that to me other than my ex breaking up with me in front of all of friends..

but yea they mostly mean they dont like you anymore,or maybe he kinda loves you but isnt quite shure about it,and want’s to find out..

maybe

well when they think they are not hurting our feelings by saying I just want a break but really they just make it worse

Thank you girls your the best

I think if you want to break up with someone you should just say it instead of being a chicken

They’re just cowards, it isnt about hurting you but about protecting themselves… Any guy who does this is def not worth it…

That is what I have heard too… they’re just too chicken to make a clean break of it…

I hate it when guys say that…If I they want to break up with you they should be man enough to say “its over”

I think they want to be able to mess around with other girls, but still have the benefits of being with you

Maybe be they we just don’t want to hurt you much by saying “its over”
