Taking a break in a relationship and breaking up are two different things.
Lois didn't ask for a break to think things over. She said they were breaking up.
That means that she desided that the relationship is over. She no longer cares to be a couple with Clark.
To me that was a 180 degree turnaround on what she has been saying.
I guess she can add Clark to the I have done the dating thing wrong so many times List.
Alright Clark was being insensitive and Lois doesn't know how much Clark has on his mind. Namely world war 3.
All of us have had our partner be insensitive at some time in our relationship. Sure we get angry but we air our feelings. If we care for the other person we work though the problem not throw our hands up in the air and say that 's it we are breaking up. Game over.
Lois can not have strong feelings for Clark if she can give up so easily.Last edited by supercatmom; 05-12-2010, 08:43 PM.Comment

Yes, if you care for the other person you work through the problem, which exactly what Lois was asking Clark to do with her at the start of the episode. Clark, unfortunately, didn't seem very interested in working through anything. He had good reasons to be distracted, but Lois didn't know that. From her perspective, Clark was not going to put in any effort to work on their relationship. He just wanted to pretend they didn't have any problems; and the types of problems they were experiencing as a couple can't just be ignored or wished away.
.
Also, the tad bit of regret we saw in her statement at the DP about running away from her problems also prove that even she thought that she may have made a hasty decision by breaking up at the dinner table.Last edited by Cloisdestined; 05-13-2010, 02:08 PM.Comment

Clark did assert that he believed in them later on and that he did want to work out their problems. He just wanted to delay it for the time being because he had guests over for dinner. It's not like the problems were so darn pressing (as in a matter of life and death) that she couldn't wait to talk to him in private first. IMO that was a extremely hasty decision on her part.Comment

while the breakup is sad and no matter what the reasons are, i agree that sometimes taking a break/time apart can be good for a relationship. my own parents had a "breakup" over a summer (now granted i believe they were in later high school) and they've been married for almost 41 years.. I've known other couples where the same thing happens and the time apart makes them stronger...

The thing that seems out of place in this episode is how easily Lois ended their relationship. She didn't seem to be sad at all about it if compared to breakups with Oliver, Grant and even AC. It does seem like she doesn't really care about Clark after all and their relationship was not a big deal like her past ones.
Seems the writers really screwed this one.Comment
