So after 2 years of being together with my girlfriend, we are now, as of 10 minutes ago, officially on a break.

I've never been one to understand exactly what this means. Having sort of seen this coming for awhile and after asking some close friends what it means to be on a break, I'm no closer to understanding the exact intricacies except for knowing it's an "opportunity to find yourself and what you want from a relationship and how you can better contribute to the relationship". Personally, I think a person should call it what it is...breaking up!

And normally, I'd suck it up and move on, except for one glaring detail of our relationship....

WE LIVE TOGETHER!!!!

Now, for the time being we've agreed that neither one of us has to move out, unless it proves too much of a strain. However, I can't possibly see how I can live in the same apartment, be in love with her, but yet at the same time, not be able to act on any kind of feeling.

Does anyone think this arrangement can possibly work?

On the plus side, I can make sure she doesn't bring any guys over...or kick his ass if she does
