Taking steps back...

Hi everyone...new to the board, here. I just wanted to pose a question to everyone...do you think it's possible for two people to take a step back to work on unresolved issues before getting back into a serious relationship? Here's some background on my situation. My bf and I have been dating on and off for 2 years. Mostly on. Recently, we have had a HUGE fight and didn't talk for 2 weeks. After having talked at length for the last two days, we decided to "take a step back" and resolve all the underlying issues that we have before we get back into a serious relationship. There is no doubt in either of our minds that we love each other very much and we want to be together. Is this a reasonable solution to our problem? We both feel like the issues can't be ignored and must be dealt with, but in order to do that we don't need to be deep into a serious relationship with each other... Are we crazy??

How are you going to resolve the issues?
What are you doing proactively?
Unfortunately, therapy isn't really an option for us financially.
