Hi Mohinder,
I don't think 'breaks' really work. The fact that you need to have a 'break' spells trouble.
Whoever initiated the break doesn't matter. Look at it this way, nobody is at fault, you are just not compatible with each other.
I am going to sound like an old git now, but when you are younger, people tend to think much more short term. You only tend to meet people who are truly compatible with you for a long term relationship every few years (yes years).
I would recommend:
Finish your current relationship.
Enjoy your free time in the meanwhile.
Bide your time until you find the right person.
When I was young, I used to think I'm a bit of a Saddo if I'm single, and worry about what other people thought.
Don't think that way, just wait till you meet the right person. Meanwhile feel free to have casual sex
