Assalamu Alaikum dear ladies. This article explains what the majority of men mean when they say “ I need a break! - To clear my head or put things in order. I want you to have this information so you’d not live in denial if ever you find yourself in the situation. Men are the most intentional beings on earth especially when it comes to their emotions. Men know what they want. A man can be a serial flirt but a man is hardly puzzled between two ladies. Trust me, he knows who he wants. Even when he is exposed to other options, he knows what he wants. Highest, He’s going to have a bite and then go back to his original choice. She may not be as pretty as the other girls he’s been with but where a man finds peace and loyalty, he builds his tent. Women on the other hand are intentional about every other activities in life but their emotions. A woman can know what she wants and still be confused when exposed to variety because women are always scared-conscious of making a mistake. That explains why even a decent girl in a great relationship can easily generate cold feet when she’s exposed to other options. For example, a marriage proposal from a financially stable man can inadvertently interfere with a woman’s initial choice or interests. This to say that women are never truly convinced of any promises you make to them until they see themselves in a wedding dress. So when a woman says : I need a break “ There is every possibility that it is harmless. She probably needs you to reassure her that’s all. I need a break for most women is just an attention seeker. She wants to see how much she means and if you are going to fight for her. But when a man says he needs a break, trust me and give him that break because there is a 99% chance that the decision is intentional. Men hardly ever needs attention or reassurance, all they need is loyalty and submission so if you are loyal to a man and he says that?? Grant him! When women use the word break it’s probably an attention seeker but when a man uses it, It is definitely a deal breaker. That is usually what we say when we do not want her to know we are actually breaking up. It is tactical manipulation. I need a break up sounds harsh and makes them the enemy so men would rather say “ I need a break to clear my head/ put things in order” Dear ladies, Don’t wait up. Note to take home: When a man truly loves you, he doesn’t chase you in his moments of trials, that is when he needs you the most. I am a man. I know this is hard pill to swallow especially for ladies who are blinded in love. No one wants to accept the truth because of the pain that follows so you’d rather bind yourself with false hopes that he’s going to have a rethink. Well, May you are right but I don’t think you should stick around to find out. Men don’t chase women who give them inner peace away so if truly that man loves you he will never shut you out especially when you have done nothing wrong to him. I am sorry you have to go through this tactical manipulation from men but I need you to have this information. Many of you have not been able to move on because you are waiting for a break to get over. Please do not wait up!
