because from what I hear when they say they just want to break what they really mean is I want to break up but im too chicken to actually say it...

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

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

but isnt quite shure about it,and want's to find out..

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

maybe he actually wants a break from the relationship and he wants some time by himself
but yeah I doubt that is it, it sounds to me like he's trying to take the easiest way out, maybe you should try asking him is that just a way of him trying to break up with you??
I dunno...I havent had a relationship in 2 years so I woudnt really know much...!!!
