My long time boyfriend has bp and there have been several times throughout our relationship that he's asked for a "break" from us. Only until recently have I considered this may be something he resorts to during an episode. When things get bad: we start fighting or he's under a lot of stress. This subject comes up. It is absolutely devastating. I've complied with it about two or three times before and it takes a huge toll on our relationship everytime. I cannot and will not do it again. I am desperate for insight.
