Should I take a break?

Hey! M25, thinking about taking a break from dating, I have good success on dating apps and in person in the last year and I’ve been going on dates a decent amount. That being said, it’s starting to become draining! I’ve noticed that I’m not someone who can just hook up and cut ties easily, even though I thought I was but I don’t like the idea of being a complete stranger to someone I’ve hooked up with. Second I feel like I need to focus on myself and grow as a person alone. But I still have FOMO, like when I hear others go on dates etc. Has anyone here taken a year of dating and focused on themselves? If so was it the right thing to do? Please let me know!
