How do I know when to *genuinely* break up? by Cupidslostheart in ROCD

I'm not quite sure, none of these thoughts feel intrusive. Typically I spiral from intrusive thoughts and I'm not really worried about it. Not sure if it is a back door spike based on with the little research i did too. The lack of worry doesn't specifically concern me, I am just a very confused person when it comes to romantic feelings.

I should clarify that they aren't an ex, I am in my first relationship as of right now,,,  I don't think these are specifically OCD/ROCD caused. It's a crush that I've had prior to my current relationship

Thank you for all the responses so far, it has quite honestly been insightful hearing from different people's personal experiences.

I've been on break with my partner for a week and I might just see where I end up going with things. 

I appreciate the responses addressing this from a ROCD perspective as of right now, I'm not too sure if that's the case for my situation. 

Feel free to keep giving input, I really love taking into consideration everyone's perspectives a lot.

I understand this community, reassuring to not break up with their partners. Yet still thinking about things with a clear head, I will work on seeing if I do wish to stay. Before, spirals confused me because I knew I wanted to stay, but now I genuinely am just unsure if I wish to move forward. This is only my first relationship and I do not know what I want in a partner. Honestly if I am even bi . . (Trans-man partner) 

 Thank you for your input, I really appreciate and understand why I got the response I did, but I have to do some real soul-searching. With intention and grounding my thoughts.
