Answer 1

If that's the way you really want to do it, than try avoiding him a bit. Don't call him, and don't agree to hang out. Say you're to busy. Eventually he will realize you no longer want to be with him and might even break it off himself, or confront you, in which you can say your feelings have changed, and that you think you guys should move on.

In my honest opinion, you should just be honest with him, because sometimes it hurts more to just watch someone slip away...= /

Answer 2

Well, I broke up with my boyfriend almost a month ago. We'd been together for a year and a half. Sadly, I didn't have a chance to do it face to face, because honestly I probably would have slapped him. Truthfully, the way we did it was the best, and I did it over the phone. So, since you don't want to do it face to face, I would suggest not answering his calls, texts, ims, emails, snail mails, visitations, etc. Just cut him off.. now if this doesn't work, and he persits the best way will be leave him a message via the phone when you know that he will be unable to answer. That way you can go, "Hey.. It's me.. Sorry I been so busy.. Look I've been thinking about it and since I'm so busy right now, I don't think I can do this right now. I'm sorry that I couldn't have told you before hand, but I had no idea how conflicting our schedules etc would be." If you want to remain friends with them, this would be the best time to say hey we need to slow it down, maybe just be friends for a while until everything settles down in your life. Just depends on if you see yourself being friends with them still. I hope this helps :).

Answer 3

i have never had a boyfriend but i will try and help alittle. Since you dont want to say to his face maybe you could try writing him a note saying that you need some time for yourself and that maybe you two just need some time apart. OR you could just try getting enough guts up to tell him face to face since that would be very direct and possibly wouldn't hurt as much.

Answer 4

Just of the next couple week period, Just slowly stop doing things with him and then tell him you feel like you are drifting apart :) AND that you would like to end things

Answer 5

just do it face to face. most guys prefer that over a phone call or having a friend do it for you. drifting apart will hurt him more than just getting it over with, even if it doesn't seem like it

Answer 6

i understand not wanting to say it face to face but that is the best way to do it however if you still decide to try to drift away when he wants to do something with you tell him you have plans with your friends or family eventually he'll get the hint

Answer 7

write a really short letter and let him know that you guys are through. That way you are not telling him face to face and you don't have to worry.

Answer 8

Best way is face to face. I realize you either don't want to or fear this but it really is the best way. That way there is no misunderstandings........Best of luck to you.

Answer 9

complain, complain, orchestrate diners with other beautiful girl all the time, complain, go on his nerves, he might take a bite on the other girl... and also: do everything in the opposite way then what he wants

here is another one - black mail yourself - take a pix with another man and send them to him

Answer 10

personally i'd tell him face to face in a public place so he doesnt kick up stink. make it short and straight to the point. no "we can stil be friends" crap.
