Fact: Break-ups hurt.
Be a man and tell her you don't want to be with her anymore.
There's nothing worse than that thing of "I stayed with her because I didn't want to hurt her"....It's going to hurt no matter what.
If you stay with someone who you don't feel anything for, you are insulting her and denying her the chance to be with someone who DOES want her.
Put yourself in her shoes and decide if you'd feel like a chump to find out someone had been stringing you along for days, weeks, whatever then you find out they didn't want you? Burns doesn't it?
You start asking yourself if EVERYTHING was a lie. You start feeling embarrassed that you gave so much of yourself.
The list could go on. It may hurt once but in time, she will see that it is the best thing when a guy comes along who wants her.
Be sure of your decision and don't decide a bit later that you made a mistake. Personally, I never give a guy who dumps me a second chance. Way too many fish in the sea.
Make sense?
Good luck.

You know, I'm not sure there's really any way to break up with a girl without hurting her feelings, though if you're not sure you want to be someone, it's better to do it sooner than later so that they can heal and move on to find a better match. That's the honorable thing to do.
I do know that it helps a lot to be honest and to do it in person someplace where you have time to talk. I'm sure she will have plenty of questions, and given how much we women like to analyze things, I think she'd appreciate it a lot if you gave her some answers, so that she can be at peace about why it's ending. Don't tell her "Let's be friends" unless you mean it. Don't tell her you're going to call her unless you will. It's not nice to give someone false hope.
Good luck!

If she really cares about you there is pretty much no way that you could end it without hurting her feelings. However, the long you wait to be honest with her, the more it is going to hurt her. You should talk to her right away and be honest about how you feel. She will understand and respect you a lot more by being honest rather then making up some lame excuse or bogus reasoning as to why you no longer want to be in a romantic relationship with her. Good luck and take care...

It's very sweet of you to care about her feelings in this. I wouldn't tell her it's becuz of the whole "virginity thing". It must not have bothered you to much in the beginnin so she probably wouldnt understand that reasoning. Just tell her you 2 have grown apart and you just dont have to much in common anymore. Tell her you are sorry and you will always be her friend. But no matter how you say it-Its still gonna hurt, there is no way around it. If you really care about her, just make sure you dont tell her this through a text or email. Be there. Let her cry or get angry-she'll respect you for it and you wont loose the friendship. Good Luck!

The only way for you to break up with a girl and not hurt her feelings is to uhhh....ehhh......uhhhh.....hmmm....i'm thinking here....uhhhhhmmmm...SORRY it's not possible! unless the girl secretly hates your guts and can't wait to break up with you too and is only stalling coz she's still asking people's opinions about how to break up with a guy without hurting his feelings :) ...but if u really wanna break up, you definitely have to do it ASAP!!!! Just do it quick, be sensitive and kind but firm (even if she starts crying, begging, hyperventilating or all of the above), and don't make the mistake of thinking you need to go into the gory details of why you wanna break up, just a quick summary will do (for you, NOT for her, coz she'd wanna know every little thing that got you to the point of breaking up with her so she could psycho-analyze you, men in general, and the death of your relationship.... with the help of her closest girlfriends of course). It wouldn't hurt if you give her an honest compliment after you state the fact that you are or wanna start dating other people, coz i'm sure despite the fact you wanna break up, there's some qualities in her that are very attractive (that's why you ended up dating her in the first place right?) but after giving her an honest, sincere compliment, say your goodbyes, call her a cab (if you're breaking up with her in person and that's the better way to do it than leaving her an e-mail or a message on her answering machine), and don't be wishy-washy after the break up just coz you're all alone on a friday night without any plans for the weekend and you really miss the sex or late-night cuddles or her cooking. Move on and don't torture her! :) Good luck :)

There is no "best" way to break up with a girl because either way her feelings will be hurt. So do it quickly and cleanly as possible so she can get over the hurt.

There's no way to do it nicely. Be honest and straight to the point. Tell her it's not working for you, you're sorry things haven't worked out and you feel that you should call it a day. Keep it quick or do it on the phone if you want to avoid having to cope with the tears. She'll be upset but there's no avoiding that really.
Personally, I'd rather be dumped than do the dumping. Good luck.

You cannot break up with someone without hurting their feelings. Personally, I value honesty in relationships and if someone wanted rid of me I would want them to say they wanna end it, give me the reason rather than string me along.
But be gentle cos this girl could be seriously in love with you.
Make a clean break and dont give her any reason to think they you may change your mind soon cos stringing her along like that will,in the long run, hurt her more.
But, like I said there is no way of breaking up with someone without hurting them.
Good luck tho.

There is no way to avoid hurting her a break up hurts unless she doesn't have any feeling for you or she is made of ice. Be direct and straight forward on your reason for breaking up with her. Don't sugar coat it (it not you, it me) and don't be cruel or harsh (you're too fat for me). It will hurt for awhile, but she'll get over it.
