How do I tell my boyfriend that I don't want to be with him? (anymore)

If you're not happy while being in a relationship, you do make your partner unhappy too without really aiming for it. Therefore, you could say that he deserves a healthier relationship with someone who will appreciate and love him and that you just don't feel like you're the right one for him anymore. In my opinion it's necessary that you don't let him feel like he did something wrong, if he was all nice and sweet to you. Making him clear that both of you deserve a happy ending could help you breaking up without breaking his heart. I said "could" because based on my personal experience he will be heartbroken anyway, because boys have their ego... Anyway, ending relationships is a normal thing and you shouldn't feel bad about it as it's your right to be happy too. The key is to end things without hurting someone deeply.

You have to organise your thoughts. Start with asking yourself 'why' and then proceed and maybe write down the reasons you want to break up and frame it in a really nice way so that you avoid hurting him more.

If your boyfriend loves you, I don't think there's a way for you to make the process pain-free. However, personally, this is how I would like to be broken up with:- 1. I would like them to be honest with me and not sugar coat things to such an extent that I don't even get the reason why they are breaking up with me. 2. I would like to be given time to heal myself and not forced to be friends with them immediately. The time could be a week or two months. 3. I wouldn't want them to discuss our break up with people behind my back, especially before actually breaking up with me. The best person you can approach about relationships is the person you are in a relationship with. Nobody pours your cereal. 4. I wouldn't want them to be rude if my reactions are overwhelmingly sad. Being straightforward yet polite, and giving them time are the MOST crucial things. Apart from these points, you should do what your heart thinks right! Cheers. :)

Gently explain what made you take that decision; explain the feelings you had, or lack of feelings, maybe, that led you to this point in the relationship. It definitely won't be easy, but delaying it will just hurt him more in the long run

you can be honest and clear about your decision. tell him how you feel about your relationship now and ask for a break. without confusing him, or blaming him you can tell that you need a break.

"Your happiness is my happiness too, I don't want you to feel lost and I don't want you to think that my love isn't enough. I love you so much I'm willing to let you go."

First of all are you sure you wan to leave him? You can't exactly tell him directly, try to leave hints and signs that you are not happy and if you feel that nothing is working talk to him, sit him down and try to day things little by little but ofcourse try to make your message clear. I know its not easy but nothing in life is easy so you have to learn to push yourself.

Just tell him that. Suppressing your self by being with him more time without wanting it, is very bad for you. If you are no fit together things are simple. He will find an other who fits more with him. You don't have to worry about it but about your life that is very worthy. He also can take care of his life.

First of all you need to have a valid reason. Tell him in person not over he phone or text, to do it person shows you aren’t scared to tell the truth. Be as nice as you as you can, don’t provoke an arguement.

Shoot it straight away. Tell the guy its not gonna work anymore. That you need to be free of him, or if its a flaw, work with him to alleviate it. Good relations are just like good recipes. They need an investment of time and willingness to improve life. If the two of you are failing in translating your good intentions, or finding a lack of intent, then address it straight away.

It is difficult to end a relationship, and no matter how you communicate with your boyfriend that you want to end it he will probably be upset. This is okay - many relationships end. The best way to do this is to be honest, but empathetic with him and his situation. Let him know that he was an important part of your life, but the relationship is no longer working for you. Remember, staying in a relationship that you are not invested in isn't healthy or fair to either of you. Get him in a relaxed, casual setting and have an honest dialogue with him.

Sit over coffee and remind him of all the good memories between you both and then tell him about the bad ones and finally get to the point and spill it out......hopefully both of you won't be hurt.

You should ask him to sit down with you because you really need to talk about something. And then tell him how you feel.

Let him down easy. Don’t be too harsh about it. It’s good to have an honest relationship. Don’t stay with someone that you don’t have the same feelings for anymore. Don’t lead them on. Let them go while you can. The sooner you do so, the better. Again, don’t be too harsh. Just let him know how you’re feeling.

Tell him frankly inspite of showing off and not texting , say to him you don't want him anymore and and provide him reason for that

Be honest and try to formulate your words with respect and empathy. You used to/still care for this person and you both deserve to be honest with each other and do not take each others time anymore.

ending relationships are not easy for any one but if you don't feel same as earlier its better to end that ,so if you need to stop that you need to talk with him and you have to ssay how you feel about him and you need to ask some time or break with that relation ,and that time of period he and she will understand what they miss ,and what they really need on each other

you can just say that you have tried to make it work, but you believe deep inside that you are not best for him and he is not best for you. let him know that you still want to be friends and you care for him, but you don't love him in a way that you would be comfortable with staying together. say something like "I have the love a close friend for you... but I'm not in love with you".

I have been in this exact situation instead of beating around the bush tell him directly what you feel about this relationship and you are not happy being with him keep it short and on point.I am sure he will understand you

Honesty is the best policy in a situation like this. It may seem harsh, but it is true. I recently broke up with my partner of over 3 years. I spent at least half of that time debating whether or not I should, that maybe it would all just 'work out'. In the end I just ended up hurting him more. If you truly do not feel love for him anymore, and if you truly do not want to be with him, you need to be brutally honest. Yes, it may hurt, both you and him, but it will be for the best in the long run.

You have to straight to the point, you have to be happy in the relationship, if he cares he will understand that, it may be hard and you may not want to to hurt him but you cant hold on to something that you think is clearly not working anymore.

Being honest takes you far. Tell him how you feel right now and hopefully he understands. Remember, you are living this life for yourself, you can't stay in a relationship just for the other one's sake.

Be honest and tell him exactly how you feel in a calm state. Honesty is the best policy in any situation.

I recently went through a similar experience and the best thing you can do is be honest. Tell him how you feel

This is a tough question without a lot of serious background and knowing at what stage both of you are in life. The best general answer is that unless you have been misleading him for a long time, he probably already knows how you feel...and if you have been misleading him, likely in an attempt to spare his feelings, it may be best to start by telling him that you haven't been being honest with him or yourself, and that you don't think its fair to either of you to be in a relationship that just doesn't seem to have any traction left in it, and that he deserves to be with somebody that feels that same way about him, that he feels about you. Sometimes people just don't click, its not necessarily anybodies fault, but the longer you try to make something work that isn't for you, the worse it is when you finally make the break.

I think that the best way is to be blunt. From personal experience on the other end, it made it so much worse when the other person was being vague because it gave me a lot of anxiety about what was going to happen. It gave me false hope and in the end it felt like I was being led on. If I were you I would talk to him in person and explain to him why you don't want to be with him. This can be a really hard thing to do and even though he might not appreciate it at the time, being blunt will help him accept the situation quicker and will make the breakup as clean as possible. Because no one likes messy break up. Good luck!

I'm a big believer in 'honesty is the best policy'. I don't really think you could ever go wrong with being honest, however being honest and being too forward within this kind of situation would be slightly different, in which taking into consideration of their feelings would be best in how you phrase that you 'don't want to be with them.'

The best way to approach him would be in a calm, public setting. Like a diner. Tell him that you don't have feelings for him anymore. Tell him how you feel and respect his feelings. If he asks what you two do now, then tell him what you are wanting to do. Smile, and bring positivity to the table. The both of you will move on, and better things are yet to come.

Theres never a perfect time, and you have to do what is best for you. It is best to just be honest and polite about the situation and be careful not to lead him on by not telling him.

Tell him, directly, personally. Better say it than leave it that way and both of you getting hurt as one doesn't want to be with the other.
