writes: I was with my boyfriend for just over 17 months before we broke up. I broke up with him because I needed time alone to sort things through with myself, and during that time neither of us had a relationship with another person, and we still talked to eachother almost every day. About 3 weeks later we got back together, right on the day of what would be our 18 months. So my question is, what happens now? Do we still say we've been together for 18 months and pick up right where we left off, or does the relationship start over, so we've only been together a few days?

You two know you had a little break, neither of you got with anyone else in that time, so I would class it as just time apart.

Well whenever I've taken a break from my relationship it continues as if nothing happen, but that all depends on the people in the relationship. You could ask your boyfriend about what you think about it or just start from were you left off..
