Maybe you should start seeing other people. It maybe best for you two.
It would be great to give him or her some time to think.

I had the same experience. I felt like something bad was going to happen so I left him for a few days to clear my head.

Hi Marissa,
There are times when taking a time-out or a cooling down time helps both of you. Usually it helps you shift from feeling energy to thinking energy. Feeling energy is highly personal and focuses on how you are feeling toward one another making your liking each other the highest priority. Thinking energy is rational and focuses on your goal or goals for the relationship. While you are taking a time out it can help to clarify your goal(s) for the relationship.
My best wishes to you.
