Ask him round to your house/apartment/flat.
Tell him that you "need to talk". Then explain kindly why things aren't working out between you.
Don't tell him at a restaraunt though, as he will leave early (and that would be embarrassing) or there will be an awkward silence for the rest of the meal.
Hope this helps!

Be open and honest. Sit him down and say that you think he is a lovely bloke but for you the relationship is no longer working for you and that you are sorry but you are going to have to call it a day. Do not make any silly excuses as he will just try and combat them. If he argues with you simply repeat that it is not working for you any more. If he gets angry or weepy just say you are sorry he feels like this but it cannot change the way you feel. you will always have good memories of the time you had together but it is over. Don't worry ; sooner or later he will get over it and when he does be pleased for him. Do not promise to keep in touch or anything like that as you will give him false hope. take care and good luck.

What a nice person you are!
I'm intrigued to know what your fellah has done wrong now, and why he doesn't meet up to your standards?
If you have to ask this question then he's done nothing wrong - I suppose you think he's done nothing right either.
Best way is to sit down, have a chat and say you're not interested any more.
Other ways are by texting - but that can be harsh.
Or just stop replying . I'm busy - I'm Busy - I'm busy - eventually he'll get the hint.
Just don't whatever you do leave him hanging on!

Come on people. Don't just tell him cold turkey, and "he'll get over it." I've been through some pretty painful break-ups. The worst ones are the ones you didn't see coming at all. You should at least sit down with him and be like, "Look..." and explain your reasoning for why you're breaking up with him. Don't be a jerk about it. Try to go easy on him. Unless he's a jerk, then do what you want, but if he was good to you at all, go easy on him. Do it how you would want it done to you.

I'ts never easy, but th truth is the best, sounds corny but if you drag it out or put it off it only gets worse. He is going to be hurt either way no one likes to be rejected but the sooner the better then you will both have more time and energy to meet someone else.Not fair if he meets a nice girl today but dosn't pursue it because he is seeing you.

Just tell them you are sorry but you don't think it is working out and you think it might be best for both of yo if you end it. Don't succumb to emotional blackmail, if you mind is made up then let him vent and cry and then walk away. Don't keep in touch though unless you think he is ok with the split as most blokes want to keep in touch merely so they can try and get back in with you.

To his face, or if he's abit volatile over the phone, there's no BEST way of doing it but that's the kindest, at least you'll be giving him some dignity, just say you're sorry...n you really care for him but not in the way that would be good in the relationship, you care for him more as a friend and a boyfriend.....

very directly. maybe say "i don't want to go out with you anymore. I want to be single right now. i hope you don't feel to bad, and good luck in the future." and don't let him argue with you or beg.
also, don't communicate with each other for a month or two. he will need some time to get through his crappy feelings, and you might have some bad feelings of your own. best not to get them intermingled.

Tell him face to face. I once ended it by text and I felt so bad , but I couldn't face him. Imagine getting a text when you're playing a round of golf telling him you've met someone else and don't love him anymore.......not nice.

Speaking for me I prefer the straight and to the point method. Don't beat round the bush about it.
