So we both agreed that waiting it out and setting ourselves straight may help make the relashionship stronger.I've known him since i was 5, and i've always been his bestfriend. But now that we are just friends again it seems better like this, however it feels like i'm hurting him a lot and thats the last thing i wanna do.Help please what should i do?

How do you know it's hurting him? Couples who take a "break" rarely get back together, it just sounds better and less hurtful to say that than "we're over". Fighting is something you're going to do no matter what, some fight more whereas others just have a few spats. If you were fighting 24-7 then a "break" was the best choice. Talk to him see how he's doing with being friends, and tell him that you guys seem happiest this way, you want to be happy and you want him to be happy. It's going to take some time to sort each other out, in which you need to focus solely on you and for him to do the same. Think of it as you're both taking the time to do a bit of soul searching.
