Did Asuna and Kirito take a break from each other, before season 4 started?


In season 4, when Alice asked Asuna "Just how long were you and he together?"
Asuna replied "I was his partner for two years. Then we dated for probably a
year and a half."

If they were still dating, wouldn't she reply something like "We were partners
for two years, and for 2 weeks we lived together, and Kirito and I are still
together."

I know that they love each a lot. It's just the way she replied, that made me
think that they aren't together anymore. I would understand if maybe, they are
taking a break from each other because both sides' life is a bit hectic and
they need to sort things out before being together again.

It seems like that was a sloppy piece of dialogue. It also seems like the math
is pretty bad from that line of dialogue. If Ordinal Scale is considered
canon, and it takes place in 2026, and they're together at that point, seems
more like 2 years partners in SAO, 2 years dating after.
