There truly is no easy way to break up with someone. The only thing you can do is be compassionate as possible. It's something that takes a lot of courage and strength to do. Take a deep breathe and be sure what you want to say before you dive into it. Be prepared for all out comes. When all else fails ask someone for advice and come up with the best way to approach the situation. Take the breakee's feelings into consideration. It's okay to be feel an array of emotions. We are all only human after all. You got this!

The thing about relationship is that it is some sort of a trial test on whether you can live with this person for the rest of your lives.
When you find out that person is not suited to you, or you feel like you are unable to handle being with that certain person, we break up. Why would you stay with a person that does not make you happy?
When breaking up with someone, it is crucial to know that the feelings may be still there, the feelings of guilt and shame that lingers due to the past love you had for this person, and that is okay, that is human.
When you attempt to break up with someone, it is important to know that it is not a negotiation, relationships are like open doors, you can leave on your own accord without the permission of the other person. Meaning you do not ask for permission, you are merely telling the person that you want to leave.
To note that to make it clear that you are not giving any more hope for the other person, especially if that person is unstable / immature emotionally.
Giving hope will only make them cling to that hope, to the thought of getting back together.

I think it's best to talk to the person in real life. Be honest with them and tell them how you feel. You could also remind that that you appreciate the relationship that you had together. Be confident in the choices you make. If you believe it's best to break up with this person, don't hesitate. You could also tell someone you trust that you will be going through a break up. This way you will have someone to confide to. Relationships can be hard, but I am sure you have the strength to break up with someone and get over them.

To end any kind of relationship, be it romantic or from a social group or work situation, demonstrating honesty and respect for oneself and others enables the parting of ways easier for all. Remain mindful of how you convey your need to end the relationship with words that do not cast blame. Making “I†statements, is owning that this is something that you need to do for yourself. “I feel the need to end this relationship because I cannot continue this any moreâ€
For personal safety, do this in privacy and also in a public place, where there are other people around but at a distance. This will enable you to leave in safety.
The person you are breaking up with may be accepting of this decision you have made. If not the other person may want to bargain with you and may even harass you. If this happens, take measures to protect yourself.

The easiest way to break up with somebody is to them straightforward. You can not beat aroud the bush in these situations beause it might hurt the other person. Even if you have been dating them for a long time you should still communicate your feelings and them directly. Also be calm in the situation and do not attack them. Talk about if you guys can remain friends, but if not completely walk away. Do not contact them because it could be misleading. During the break up tell exactly the reason because sometimes we question the whys to so many things.

Breaking up with someone is never easy and shouldn't be treated that way, as someone is bound to get hurt. It's really best to do it as gently as possible, have a conversation face to face for one. With social media its easy to fall into the trap of "Ill just text them" but that wont give any closure to either party involve. Face to face so theres no miscommunication or misunderstanding of tones. No matter what, there was a reason you two dated, there will always be a bond there in some way, be respectful of that.

Breaking up with someone can be a difficult time and process for anyone. There is no easy way to do because usually one of the two parties gets hurt in the process. At the same time when one realizes that they are in a relationship that is not right for them, they need to do what is best for them and their happiness. Honesty is the best policy. You need to just sit with the person and explain where you are coming from. Giving them a reason will be the best in the end for parties and the emotions involved.

in my experience, the easiest way isn’t always the best way. of course, dropping a text and blocking someone from your life is seemingly very quick. however, to allow both of you to heal and move on, it is best to have a mature conversation (in person) where any questions can be answered and then you can go your separate ways and try and maintain and respect that boundary. it might get emotional as relationships often have a lot of time and effort invested in them, but it is probably the most healthy and loving way to end things. just remember that regardless of the situation now, you pursued a relationship because you really liked, perhaps even loved this person, and therefore you most likely still want the best for them.

To be honest, there is no "easiest way" when it comes to break ups. It will always be kind of hard to find the courage to break up with someone, but you could always try having a face to face conversation with them on how you feel. It could take a lot of courage to open up to them and risk heartbreak for the both of you, but at the end it is worth it. And remember, if you are unhappy with the relationship, then it will most likely cause more harm to stay in such a relationship than to end it.

Honestly? just tell them. Don't lead them on, and explain how you feel. I had a boyfriend who continuously hit on the girl who i wasn't supposed to worry about, and he broke up with me for her by saying he needed to "focus on his work and music." It would have hurt a lot less if he had been honest with me from the start. I'm not saying it won't hurt for the other person, but it will save them a lot of confusion and anger. Sit down with them, gently tell them, and give them the room they need to heal. This isn't a fun situation for either of the two people, but when handled properly, it will be a lot less painful.
