To talk to that person face to face. I think it's a mark of respect to do that. You could tell them why it didn't work, so they will be able to know why and maybe work on that for their future relationships. You have to do it in respect, like how you would react if someone would dump you like this. Of course they are going to be sad, but they don't have to hate you for being mean or whatever.

The easiest way is this : talk to them face to face, tell them what's going wrong, tell them the reason you want to break up, and get out. Hopefully they'll understand. This way is the easiest way, rather than plotting and planning a lot of complicated ways of breaking it to them that you want to move out of the relationship.

It is always good to talk face to face. It is important to show that you respect this person enough to say it to their face, but in a nice manner. One wants to be gentle and watch the way they speak because they do not want to sound harsh. Always be honest when breaking up with someone.

Take them to a private place and tell them calmly you don't think things are working out and you'd like to meet other people

Be upfront and honest. Do it in person too! Don't blame them or insult them, be calm, be honest, and be kind.

I feel that it is best to speak directly to them and get everything out in the open. That way there is no misunderstanding

I don't necessarily think there's an easy way to break up with someone, but there is a respectful way to do it. The last thing you want to do is blindside your partner, by breaking up with them out of the blue. Even if you have reasons why, breaking up so suddenly, when your partner isn't expecting it, will only blindside them, and make the entire process even worse. Talking to your partner beforehand, about your relationship and how you feel it's going, is the best place to start. Then you can get input from your partner about where they see the relationship going too. Communication and honesty are the keys to any relationship, and even though it can be difficult, talking things through beforehand can save a lot of heartbreak in the end. I can't stress it enough -communication is the key.
