Ponle punto y coma

What is the English equivalent idiom?

I'd understand if it was just put a period, but put a semicolon? Really? What does that even mean.

It's talking about a relationship, by the way.

Punto y coma in Spanish is like putting a pause to a thought. So in this case it would be putting a pause on a relationship or Taking a break from a relationship. Hope it helps. If it is punto final, well, that'd mean that it is over.
