I had a long break from dating over the past year and a half or so, until recently, and it honestly did wonders for me. I went back into dating from a much more authentic and relaxed place. I’ve never dated so well! No pretense and no trying to figure out where the relationship was going, just being myself in the moment, until it went where it went. I know we can’t often orchestrate a long break and maybe shouldn’t try (or maybe should!), but I wish I could bottle and share this feeling.
