I Don't understand why they needed to break up with each other?

It's going to be harder if they're in a ldr because they would always put each other on priority and be afraid to upset each other while the anxiety grew larger, it can hinder their relationship with each other, with other people and their career but with them breaking up they can focus on making themselves and their career grow with the slight assurance that the other is waiting for them.
I swear they were made for each other....... huhuhuhuhuhuhuhu
