There's no scripted way of breaking up nicely but you can do so respectfully and remember you have a right to do so and remember NOT to feel guilt. Speak to the person face to face, not via a phone, not through instant messaging and not by e-mail. Tell the person you appreciated their friendship but prefer to not be in a relationship with them. Don't bring up anyone else, don't give specifics as to why you are ending it which they likely will confront you. You will more than likely get questioned to no end, will see an emotional response if feelings are hurt so expect it. The other person often is controlling when they see an immediate loss and panics when they get such news, so be prepared for some type of demand for a concession and/or promise from you to rekindle what is now gone.
Instead, hold your position, don't argue, be brief and polite. If they get abusive or threaten you, walk away and notify an authority if it is life threatening. Don't allow yourself to be intimidated or reversed if this is what you truly want. It is your right to move on. Good luck and be strong.
Hi, However you do this, it will be upsetting so dont beat yourself up over it and dont waste time, do it as soon as possible, dont prolong the agony. Just say that you dont feel ready for a long term relationship yet and that you just wanna be friends, say its your fault not theirs, hope this helps
Erm if i were you i would just see him or her face to face and say yuo are sorry but you dont want to be in this relationship anymore.' If the reason for the break up is something that you think would hurt him or her e.g he or she isn't attractive dont say that. Because that can be so hurtful. Just try to be as nice and gentle as possible but make sure he still gets the point that it is completely over.
