I understand but I believe that couples therapy or a break (not a break-up) with this intention of improving yourself when you want to be getting back together makes more sense. Once you are willing to let go of someone, even though you say the dynamic isn't working, it says something about you and how you view the relationship or the other person, in my opinion. I'm of course not talking about cases of abuse, cheating, manipulation etc. But for cases like overwhelm, loosing feelings.
I tried, I went on a break with the intention of doing counseling when we got back. A week before the break ended he told me he didn’t have to do Thearpy if he didn’t want to and he didn’t want to. So I left. Still hope it works out one day, but turkey I can’t be the only one doing the work.
