You should just be able to do that anyway. Your partner is someone you should be able to tell anything to. Just go ahead.

You can do this with multiple ways, One of which is sighing a lot and looking at the floor or at a downwards perspective. This usually indictates you are not happy about something. If this does not work, you can just straight up telling him that you are feeling down and what your problems are. If you think he will dump you for this, your most likely wrong. A good boyfriend would never do that ;)

I know this can be hard for you to tell your boyfriend, but it's best that you come to him and tell him how you feel. Being honest about how you feel in the relationship will help you and you boyfriend solve the issue

The best thing to do is to remain honest and forthcoming, yet kind and respectful. You should never sacrifice your happiness for the sake of someone else's, but you should also remain considerate of how you might feel if the roles were reversed. Overall, being open is the key to a trusting relationship, and it could be as simple as saying to your boyfriend, "I'm not happy," and explaining.

The exact way you're saying it here. If you're not happy, you can't expect him to guess. He needs to know what's going on. It will help you both

Be honest, Honesty is the best policy, find the right time to sit him down and talk to him. Tell him how you feel and why you feel that way. Also let him know how he can help to make it better for you.

Honesty and directness is usually the best policy. If you are not happy, it is compassionate to both of you for you to be honest and direct.

Sit down with your boyfriend and tell him the reasons you're not happy. Do you think you can work through it? Relationships can be quite difficult but it is up to you and how you feel about him. I hope you find you're happiness.

If you are sure you are not happy with the relationship, then I think the best thing you can do is sit down and spend some time and talk to him. Be completely honest and let him know that whatever time you had together was amazing and something special for you. I know it can be hard, but its better to take care of it earlier than let is just go on like that. In the long run, it will all be fine. Time heals everything.

Simply tell him, as you're doing now. If you can explain him why, do it, be very clear and upfront about your feelings and relationship. Men are not generally as "smart" as women: they struggle with showing sympathy and sometimes they just don't know how to help, even if they would love to.
