You should be polite but straight about it. There's no easy way to do this, but you can choose to be honest as a token of respect for the man you've been with for a time.

Simply be honest with him. If you are no longer happy in this relationship, you need to be sure he knows.

You need to be open and honest. You need to make sure he understands even if won't accept it at first. It is far better to take your time and make sure he knows the reasons than to just offer and excuse and leave. You may not love him anymore, you may not have feelings for him but try to picture if this was happening to you and what you would need to hear in order to move on quickly.

Hey there, you can tell him that you thought about a lot of things and finally you understood that you need to be alone in this period of time. That you want to break up because it is the best for you and you know that he will feel better too after you break up. Tell him the reasons why and maybe you can still keep in touch sometimes... don‘t be scared of what he will say, if he truly liked you, he will also accept your decision.

Let him down easily, but be truthful when explaining why you decided to break up with him. One thing that causes confusion in breakups would be lying to them to keep from hurting their feelings. Just be as honest as possible. Also, be clear on the reason why. If it’s not his fault, make that known. If he did something wrong, also make that known.

In my personal experience the best way is to be upfront and tell him exactly what you are feeling and why, remember to stay calm throughout it all and realize you are hurting him but also remember you are breaking it off for a reason and stay firm in that reason. I hope this helps you in any way!

Breakups are never easy, but unfortunately it’s one of those things... if you know it’s what you want... you just need to take a deep breath and do it. Be honest, Write out what you’re going to say first if it helps you process... but don’t ever be that person that breaks up with someone through text or email. You’re better than that.

It’s best to reflect on your feelings and ask yourself if this is really what you want. If it is, then you have to do it immediately. Tell him that you need to talk, and don’t be vague about it. Tell him exactly what you feel. Do not be afraid of sharing your thoughts.
