Always remember it's important to consider the other person's feeling when letting them go. Remember when someone really loves it really hurt to lose that love. Let him know that you have just grown apart. Your feeling are not the same and that you care that's why you are caring enough to say it and not just walk away. So many people walk away without saying anything. And leave the other person feeling like they did something wrong. When many time it's not that the person did anything it's just that time have changed you. It's okay to leave someone but it not okay to do it in a mean way. Everyone has feeling. Think about if this was you on the other end how would you like the other person to tell you it's over. Then, do it that way, the way you would want it done to you. Sometimes we do have to love a person enough to leave them. So they can go on with their lives and find someone who will love them in a way we are not able to. Don't waste anymore time tell him now. The longer you wait the harder it will become. Everything will work out for the best.

Here's How:
1. Get alone with him. Don't do this on the phone!
2. Relax. You are doing the right thing...he needs to know the truth.
3. Tell him that you feel this relationship on its current level needs to end.
4. Give him some time to let it sink in.
5. If he tries to convince you to give him another chance, listen to him.
6. Tell him that you've made up your mind.
7. Tell him at what level you would like to keep your relationship (acquaintences, never-seens, friends, etc).
8. Listen to his response. Respect his feelings about this new level
9. Let him go when he feels he needs to end the conversation.
Tips:
1. Be honest. Although breakups can be really hard on relationships, honesty will salvage any possible future friendship.
2. When you've realized that you are no longer interested in this person, let him know. Don't drag out a pointless relationship.
3. Look at this like taking off a band-aid. Would you rather do it fast or slow? Which one hurts more?
Expect:
# Question -- He will want to know why, and whether there was anything he or she could have done to prevent the breakup. Answer the questions as honestly as possible.
# Cry -- He will likely be upset, and it will show. It is okay to comfort him, but don't allow yourself to be manipulated into changing your decision.
# Argue -- He may dispute anything you've said during the breakup, including examples you used in your reasons for breaking up. Don't get dragged into a fight, and don't split hairs. Let him know that arguing isn't going to change your decision.
# Bargain/Beg -- He may offer to change, or to do things differently in order to preserve the relationship. If the person didn't change when you've discussed your problems in the past, it is too late to expect him to truly change now.
# Lash Out -- Whether it's as simple as saying "You'll never find anyone as good as me" or as scary as saying "I'll make you regret this", he is usually just trying to make himself feel better.

Just tell him how you feel. Tell him you don't think the relationship is going anywhere and that you want time apart. And let him know that that is your final decision and not to try and talk you out of it b/c that is what you want.
Oh and play Chris Brown's song Goodbye in the background
"There's never a right time to say goodbye
But I gotta make the first move
'Cause if I don't you gonna start hating me
Cause I really don't feel the way I once felt about you
Girl it's not you, it's me
I gotta gotta figure out what I need (oh)
There's never a right time to say goodbye
But we know that we gotta go
Our separate ways
And I know it's hard but I gotta do it,
And it's killing me
Cause there's never a right time
Right time to say goodbye"

Its not mean to dump your boyfriend. Its actually more mean to keep him hanging having him think you still have feelings for him. Tell him face to face how you feel. It may be hard in the short term but in the long run, he'll thank you. This way he'll be free to possibly meet someone else that will care about him.

The easiest way is to say NICELY, "look i love but u kno this thing ain't been no walk in tha park 4 us. I don' wanna tell u this but I don't feel tha same way about u no more. I think it would be best 4 us to go our seperate ways. I hope we can still keep in contact and we just might be able 2 get back together. But untill then, its over" U can say it to his face or u can call him, it would be better for u and him if u say it to his face

There's just no "pretty" way to do it. That's what means being a heartbraker. Just don't brake it in a million pieces, so, he won't have to spend months to put them back together. Be nice and don't "dump him", anyone can understand that it's no longer wanted without feeling like a tanker hit you in the *** at 200miles/hour. Good luck.

Whatever you do, do it face to face. Don't do it over the phone or computer or something, that's just cold. Just tell him straight up "We need to talk, I don't want to be with you any more because (insert reason here). Let him vent his anger or shock or whatever and then just say, "I'm sorry you feel that way, but I think it's for the best" and then just leave it at that.

The best way is to be honest and mature about it. There is no easy way to avoid hurt feelings. There is no sense in staying with someone if you do not like them, you both deserve better. Just tell him how you feel and part ways. Best of luck to you.

Child I have been trying to dump mine for mths, but like the poltergeist he just keeps coming back, I do love him but I no longer have any passion for him. I am still trying to figure out how to let him down gently. We have been together for 4yrs.
