You will need clear parameters of what this break means. Can you date other people? Sleep with other people? Unless you typically engage in an open relationship or are polyamorous, it’s best to remain monogamous during the break. Seeing other people will only add jealousy and insecurities to the pile of problems you’re already addressing during the break.
Some other parameters might be: are you speaking on the phone? Texting? How often? You’re laying down these laws so you both know what to expect, and don’t read into whatever level of communication is or is not happening.
