You can apply in December if you meet rest of the requirements.

Which issues do you find confusing?

Masalli,

The breakup of the relationship will not affect your British Naturalisation. You can apply 1 year after getting your ILR(i.e being free from Immigration Restrictions).

You can apply to naturalise after being settled for 12 months, the easiest way to show this is 12 months after being granted your PR card. However, if you can show evidence (perhaps the same you used to get the PR card) that you attained PR before this point, you can apply earlier.

thanks for the replies. i was hoping to apply sometimes in december but i came across a solicitor recently who seen my passport and advice me that i am due to apply for naturalisation now if i can afford the fee. that where the doubt comes from as am not sure of what he met
thanks once again

I think I've explained it to you. There is an additional English language requirement coming into affect from 28 Oct 2013.
