When it comes to relationships, people need breaks, and that's exactly what host Bridget McManus discusses in this episode. With the advice from a blog post -- appropriately titled "Taking a Break" -- by PeopleJam member Tara, Bridget helps explain why people need to focus on themselves after getting out of a relationship, rather than jump into another one.
In this episode:
These vlogs are cool. I know for one, I need to spend a bit more time on the ol' self improvement. It's good to have them introduced so well. Thanx Bridget.
I love Bridget!
best online self-improvement show...ever!
Mmmm, and of course hot!
I know exactly how it feels to desperately need to take a break. I have been in a relationship for the last couple of years. We have been together every waking moment, and have been having the whole totally smothered feeling. I haven't had the heart to tell him that I needed a break, but I know that if I do not tell him soon, that I will go insane. So after seeing this video I know that I need to tell him as soon as possible. Maybe work out a schedule of date nights or something.
I completely agree, especially if you are coming out of a very serious relationship like marriage or civil union. You need to discover why that relationship broke and what you really want in a relationship and in your life in general before you bring a new person into it to share it with you.
Taking a break after a relationship might be a good idea. But there's always rebound relationships that don't last too long (and are fun and might be a break from a more serious one!)
Bridget makes my want to go and read the blogs she comments on. Focus on yourself? What an idea! Why is that usually the last thing we want to do? But how can we get what we want if we don't know what it is?
