The best way to inform your boyfriend of your intentions is to organize a meeting with him and explain exactly how you feel about the situation. Doing such thing via social media is not the correct way to do so as the person who you're dealing with will come to the conclusion that he didn't matter to you, which may or may not lead to depression, suicidal thoughts and more. Once you organize a meeting with him, you must be sure to be as clear as possible and explain to him, without hurting his feelings, that the relationship is simply not what you expected it to be. Additionally, you may list the reasons behind your conclusion to end the aforementioned relationship.

Talk to him about it. Sit him down, face to face and tell him that you feel the relationship isn't quite what it was before. You don't share the same burning passion, or happy days that you did once before. Tell him that you loved him, but you need some time apart. Ask if you can give him a hug and then ask him if you want to be friends.

If you are in a relationship with someone you no longer have interest in its easier to just be honest! It will cause you less stress in the long run and make things easier for the other person the less time you waste. If you are concerned about your safety let an adult you trust know about the situation and be cautious! But don't deprive yourself of a happy love life.

Face him confidently and affectionately. Try to be as clear as possible so that he doesn't get ant wrong idea so that there is no miscommunication. Once you decide and confront, don't be weak and go back. Stop talking to him, block him on every social media site and from your life if you can.

1. Choose the appropriate place, probably 1 to 1 quiet environment will be the best. 2. State your reasons Most importantly, try not to let your emotion drives the conversation and be sure to give him the time to talk also.

Be open and honest with him. Tell him how you feel, and why you don't want to be with him anymore. If he doesn't want to understand that, it will only prove something you didn't see his character before. But also, see if you can rekindle something that was missing before. You never know what can go from there :)

As respectfully and self-respecting as possible. Be sincere, unambiguous and firm but polite. Offer no justification for this preference if you are certain about your decision. No one wants to be told they can turn things around when they can't.

Be as honest as you can with him. Tell him the reason why you choose to break up with him. Try and avoid sugarcoating how you feel just so you don't upset him because then it seems like your unsure of feelings and you're decision. Let him know that you don't want to end of bad terms.

Be honest, explain that this relationship is no longer what you want and you don't think it's right for you anymore. You're not being rude by telling people how you really feel and looking out for yourself so it's best to be honest. Explaining to him that this isn't what you want and it isn't right for you is being honest while not blaming anyone for the situation.
