I've never heard it called "breaking up" before. I guess it's a UK thing? o.o
I think Sammi meant she doesn't use break as a verb in that context. You have to have rocks for brains to not know break is a verb. XD
Here we call the holidays "break" and ALSO use it in the context of girlfriend/boyfriends, as Sammi described. And, yeah, good point Kevin XD;
