What's the easiest way to break up with someone?

The easiest way is taking them to a public place, like coffee shop or bookstore, and telling them exactly how you feel and thank them for this learning experience.

Sometimes the easiest way is not always the best - do it face to face, be gentle and kind. Reason with them and make sure there is a mutual understanding.

Letting them know gently why it isn't working out would be best. It would make them hurt less and a mutual understanding would be great.

After falling in love with my best friend, i knew my boyfriend had to go. i called him and asked him if he was still happy, to which he said yes. it broke my heart, but i deserved to be happy to. i told him i was struggling and that it wasn't working for me anymore. he understood and we hung up after saying "i love you" one more time. after that, i cried into the arms of my soon to be lover. i'm so happy i made the decision to leave my ex.

You just need to be honest, straightforward and empatheitc towards them while it, don't keep going around it just be straightforward!

The easiest way to break up with someone is probably just simply telling them and just move on so yes

The easiest way for you is probably over a text, but honestly that isn't fair to the other person. The best way to break up with someone is to their face in person.

Explain to them how or why you think it's best if you guys break up and try comforting them if they need it

Be honest and direct. Keep it simple and make it absolutely clear that this is what you want. Don't leave any doors open today that you don't want to have to board up tomorrow.

To be honest and tell them how you feel. Avoiding them will not help. Give them the respect they deserve!
