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

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.

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 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

It will be very difficult but you have to end it. If you are not happy in the relationship than it's not worth continuing.

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!

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.

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.

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.'
