How bad does it hurt to break up with your boyfriend?

i think he has no idea. i'm just not ready for the type of comitment he wants. this is my first time doing this....please give me advise!How bad does it hurt to break up with your boyfriend?
you dont have to break up with him. just tell him exactly what you said.. that you aren't ready for the type of commitment he wants. if he doesn't want to back off, then go ahead and break it off, you shouldn't stay in a relationship you dont want to be in.

    I Still Love Him, He's my best Friend, But He can be Such A Jerk Sometimes?How to Break Up With Your Boyfriend?
    This is how i would do it..



    start nit picking.. at everything, get angry if he's a few minutes late.. tell him to stop wearing his favorite shirt.. just show that you are annoyed with him.. he'll either dump you at this point or..



    one day create a huge fight over something stupid.. make sure he gets angry and mean.. (i'm sure he will if he's a jerk) then just say ';fine this is over'; and hang up..How to Break Up With Your Boyfriend?
    Just call him and tell him that you need to talk. Maybe what you really need is a break from each other so you can have some breathing room. If you really want to break up with him call him and see if you can meet with him. Do it face-to-face in a safe place, don't let yourself be alone with him if you know he is going to be upset. You want to make sure you are safe though. Don't be demeaning or rude about it, just be straight forward, and tell him the reasons you are breaking up with him. Do not let him manipulate you into going back out with him if you are truly unhappy. Good luck and remember to be safe.
    I don't have boyfriend and I am very thankful for that.
    you should explain yourself more in detail because my girlfriend and i have been together for 3 years now and everytime we have a fight she wants to break up and yeah she has called me a jerk numerous times but id dont know why really but i love her a LOT and she loves me but i know she hates me A LOT more than loves me thats how you and your boyfriend are (similar but not the same ) to us in a sort of way just imagine for a long time how you life will be without him? and then make sure you make the right choice will you feel better or worse with him bieng with you ? yes or no?

    Would you break up with your boyfriend if...?

    you were talking to him on the phone and he started talking about strip clubs and how it's popping tonight? even if he was kidding (which he wasnt because he was trying to clarify breaking up with me). he's trying to call me back, im not answering. do you think he feels bad?Would you break up with your boyfriend if...?
    break up with him, he sounds like the player type, answer the phone and dump himWould you break up with your boyfriend if...?
    yea i would lol plz answer mine http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;
    DITCH him JAZSY, he is not worth the mind games and find you a real man. Remember, white boys need lovin too....lol
    DUMP HIM! Guys like that don't appreciate good woman like you.

    Its sooo clear. He's not the firm kind.

    Talking about strip clubs to girlfriends??! Not cool!
    idk he might talk to him and see how sincere his voice is
    Don't break up with him immediately. Next time you see him (in person), talk to him about how it makes you feel that he goes to strip clubs. He's probably not aware that it hurts you. The important thing in relationships is communication.



    If you explain to him that it hurts you and he doesn't care, or if he refuses to acknowledge your opinions, then you can make the decision as to whether or not you'd like the put up with that.
    i would be kinda mad....

    i guess you should give him another chance but let him know that pissed you off.

    if he keeps doing it, you know he doesnt care about how you feel.

    Would you break up with your boyfriend if...?

    you were talking to him on the phone and he started talking about strip clubs and how it's popping tonight? even if he was kidding (which he wasnt because he was trying to clarify breaking up with me). he's trying to call me back, im not answering. do you think he feels bad?Would you break up with your boyfriend if...?
    I don't know all of your situation but this is a ridiculous question. He is a guy guys joke about crap like this all the time even to their women. You need to grow up, sounds like you're very insecure, he's your man he's with you you're the one he is with not some woman on a pole... to us it like entertainment. Even if he did go to a stripclub who givesafuck i mean seriously. I don't know maybe it is just me but it seems you need to grow up a little either that or your relationship isn't serious because if it was you'd be laughing with him and not getting all pissy. why would you even think about breaking up with him over some thing stupid like this?Would you break up with your boyfriend if...?
    I think he was just kidding. It was probably wrong of him to do but honestly if you have to tell your man to stay out of the strip club he probably isn't the man for you seeing as how you got so upset. He must feel bad for opening up his big mouth and saying things he shouldn't even joke about. But, what i'm confused about is if he was trying to break up with you what are you doing? Not getting back with him?!!!
    He might but I wouldn't answer, either.

    Been there done that. There are guys who will come closer, and even better, there are guys who will meet and fulfill exactly what you need in such a relationship.
    well...if he really loves you and he knows that you dont like that kinda stuff...then he wouldn't say things that would hurt you. i think you should't bother awnsering.
    He might he know he messed up and now after y'all not on the phone he thought bout it and now wants to make up cause he know he was wrong.

    HOw to break up with your boyfriend?

    By being honest, and tell him the reason why you are breaking off with him.HOw to break up with your boyfriend?
    That ur getting married ............HOw to break up with your boyfriend?
    Just be honest.
    tell him you're not the ONE !!! be frank !
    tell him you have to separate and that it is not him

    but for personal reasons
    It's not you, it's me, leads him to believe he has a chance and turns him into a stalker. So do most of the other ';easy let downs'; like we can be friends.



    Be honest and straight forward. ';I don't love you, I won't learn to love you. It is best for both of us to find someone else.';



    Then do not accept calls, respond to texts, or accept gifts from him. During the next year, If you are somewhere and he walks in, get up and leave, do not stick around and chat with him. After a year, he will be over you and you can then be friends.

    Did you ever regret breaking up with your boyfriend?

    Girls have you ever regret breaking up with an ex boyfriend? For how long did you stop talking after the breakup? How long did it take for you to realize you made a mistake? Did you get him back?Did you ever regret breaking up with your boyfriend?
    nope...I don't talk to them anymore...I didn't make a mistake...didn't want him back...Did you ever regret breaking up with your boyfriend?
    yes, i actually just broke up with him a few days ago, and i regret it like hell... i really wasn't thinking straight and just saying the first stuff that came to my mind. this was already our second time going out, the first time was around a year ago, so idk if we'll ever get back together, but idk... what's meant to happen will happen, right?
    yes, I definately regret breaking up with an ex-boyfriend. His name was Mikey, and we were friends at first, but I thought I had feelings there, and I knew he did, so we decided to be together. But when things didn't really catch on fire for me, I broke it off, and he was pretty crushed. Well, after about three weeks maybe, I saw him again, and something about him looked really good, idk, so I wanted to pursue the relationship again. And we did again. But the same thing happened. And it repeated over and over again, until finally he couldn;t take it anymore. THEN, I finally knew I really wanted to be with him, but by then it was too late. Now, he's in a really good relationship, and there's nothing I can do about it. But I DEF regret it.

    How do you know it's time to break up with your boyfriend?

    when you cant stand being around him

    hahah well that and you just kinda

    know. its like an alarm that goes through your

    whole body.

    when you arent happy.

    bacically the sooner the better because

    since your asking this question he probably

    has no idea your considering this

    and your kinda just dragging him along

    for fun and kindof playing him.

    (writing a story) how to embarresingly break up with your boyfriend?

    I'm writing a story and my main characters crush is dating a girl. This girl is snobby and just uses him for sex .... When she decides she's done using him she is going to break up with him and embarress/ hurt him so bad that he cried... He is normally bullied by the other kids at school too... He has adhd and is bipolar in this story... . Then my main character will help him out and they'll fall for eachother. The problem is is that I don't know how she should break it off with him...

    try to think of something that would make a man cry... Something super mean / embaressing... Thanks!!!(writing a story) how to embarresingly break up with your boyfriend?
    It has to be really public. Like in the middle of a shopping mall at the top of her lungs standing on a bench, or the PA system during the morning announcements. And she has to include some embarrassing detail like his small penis or premature ejaculation or something.



    That's how all the cliche movies do it.(writing a story) how to embarresingly break up with your boyfriend?
    either cheat on him or break up with him over facebook.....or a strange combination of the two.
    Well the old 'your winkle is too tiny' always works, or failing that just spreading various dispersions about his sexual performance.



    If you REALLY wanna be nasty tho, have the girl nonchalantly bonk one of his best friends. Or his Dad!
    she could tell him something like ';Im tired of you, your such a pathetic excuse of a man. All your good for is getting some. and even then im never fully satisfied... Were through!'; over the intercom at school. That would be bad!!!!!!!
    Poke a needle several times through the balloon packs, then write ';it's over ya [insert profanity here]'; on them and have her hang them all over his locker or something

    How do you break up with your boyfriend of 5 years...?

    We've been living together for a few months, and now I realize this is the biggest mistake I've ever made. He's not the person I want to be with and I know I can't force him to change. If we break up, he would have to move back to his parent's house, since I would have nowhere else to go.



    What do I do? Am I deciding to soon?How do you break up with your boyfriend of 5 years...?
    Nope. Ask him (nicely) for some space. Best to break up.How do you break up with your boyfriend of 5 years...?
    tell him you'll help him pack his bags.... today
    Sit down with him let him know how your feeling and tell him that if things don't shape up that you can't go on living the way you are. You need to decide if you want to completely break it off or if you just want him to move out also. Be honest b/c if he's at least a decent boyfriend then he wants you to be happy.
    its better now then later when u realize hes not the one for you

    How do you break up with your boyfriend of two years?

    I've been with my boyfriend for over two years now. We've been happy for most of those two years, but recently, we just cannot get a long. We fight almost everyday about everything. I get easily annoyed with him. I've told him about how I feel, and we just fight about it. I asked if we could take a break, but he just won't let us. Maybe it's just time for us to move on... He's so clingly, I just want to get away. How do I tell him and get through to him that I don't want to be with him anymore? I tell him to stop calling me and coming over, but he just does it anyways.How do you break up with your boyfriend of two years?
    You are just going to have to be firm with him and tell him straight that you don't see a future with him and there is no point carrying on in this go no where relationship!

  • How do you break up with your boyfriend?

    My boyfriend and i have been seeing eachother officially since march 15 but weve been talking since valentines day, so weve been official for a bout a month and ahalf. and i think we would be better as friends than as boyfriend girlfriend. Because im more attracted to his inside than his outside- he is sweet, considerate and funny, but only around ME. when we are around my friends and stuff he freezes up and is so shy. And im not really attracted to him physically, he is skinny and awkward and an overall dork. but i love him, but as a friend, not romantically. so how the heck do i tell him this??? and i think he likes me more than i like him because he remembers EVERYTHING about us, when we first went out, what i was wearing and he likes me way more than i like him. he gave me his stuffed animal from his BABY times for christs sake! and his family loves me. so its hard, i dont want to hurt him, but i cant lie to myself and pretend something is there. and im a teenager.How do you break up with your boyfriend?
    it's a crappy thing to have to do, but for both of your sakes, you should do it sooner rather than later. Otherwise you'll just sit around miserable and he'll get his hopes up more and more. And soon enough he's going to notice that you're not really into it and start getting stressed too...





    So, here's my suggestion. Next time you see him you HAVE to do it. The sooner into your meeting with him the better. And when I have to say something I really REALLY don't want to say, I always *force* myself to say it by doing this:








    Take one deep breath. Take a second. Take a third and on the exhale say, ';So, um....';





    then just kinda let it flow from there... you could go to:





    -- i just don't think this is working out


    -- i think we should break up


    -- I don't think I can be in this relationship anymore..





    etc.





    It's getitng that ';So um'; out that's the hardest for me.. but once you blubber out a few lines of how you feel, then it's pretty much over... i mean, you'll ahve to sit around and talk a bit after that, but really once it's out, it's out and just feels better. Kinda like pulling a bandaid... it hurts really bad to pull off, but once it's done you just kinda feel that burning... then it's over :)





    good luck!How do you break up with your boyfriend?
    say no more
    Just tell him things aren't working out but you enjoy his company.
    I think we should break up. You gave me a rash
    nothing speaks better then your heart, just tell him the turth rather than not tellign him and making yourself miserable just say that you want to be friends as clich茅 s it my sound you really do just wwant to be friends.
    you have to tell him straight up. right now you're being cruel leading him on like this.

    HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY





    U cant go wrong if u are talking from your heart


    - it might pain him at first but i don't think anyone likes to be dragged along, its embarrassing an time wasting for the poor person because the don't know the truth %26amp; finding out later will hurt much much more


    goodluck : ) with ur decion
    There's really no easy way to do it. Whichever way you put it, he's going to take it as 'she doesn't like me'. Just tell it to him straight, say ';I enjoy being your friend, but i don't sense any romantic spark between us'; - he might need a while to cool down, but hopefully after a while you can go back to being great friends. In the future be careful about dating your good friends, cos it gets tricky.
    Oh man have i been there, I was in the same situation and he was being really clingy, so i told him that we should take some time apart, after a while i realized that we really were good together, but it was too late and now he hates me,


    Give it a bit more time, and try to see the realtionship in a different perspective, dont be too rash and if you still feel the same after a while, tell him the honest true ';I feel that we shouldn't ruin what we have as friends, because I cant create feelings that aren't there'; something along those lines, Hope you get though this okay :)
    aaah man. I wish I could feel what he feels again...Young love is something that is wonderful and fleeting at the same time. You need to tell him the truth. It might hurt him, but if you are honest with him it will be appreciated in the end. Everyone will have the ';love of their life'; several times, and everyone will have their heart broken more than once. You need to be true to yourself and true to him too. Tell him you want to be friends, but if it doesnt work out dont be upset, everyone needs time to heal. Good luck,
    I had to do this once sux but you should tell him how you really fill and stop lieing to him because he's the one that is gonna get hurt in the end because all your doing is leading him on .


    why did you say yes when he asked you out in the first place just be nice and tell him that you fill like you would make a better friend then a girlfriend and that you don't wanna hurt him try leting him down easy and just let him know you would love to be his friend ....


    he sounds like a good guy good luck ...
    i think your definition of ';love'; is 'lust'. you can still love someone romantically for his inside, not just his outside.
    this situation is hard and isn't easy. for a start it is good that you care about his feelings and would like to continue on with friendship, but you have to do what is right for you. tell him how you feel about this relationship and the difficult situation you are in. it is recommended to break up with him face to face because breaking this to him over text, phone, friend, msn etc. this will show that you don't have respect for his feelings. He might not handle it well but in time he will understand.
    The guy means well and he is very honest with you and his self esteem is very high when he is with you but when friends are about he just stays quiet and get shy, he is a very good guy it will be a shame if you break up with him, He things the whole world of you, and shows you that he cares about you, If you think he is a dork and you end your love relationship you will break his heart cause he is very sensitive, and need you a lot. Just think it over befor you decide to part with him

  • How to break up with your boyfriend in the nicest way possible?

    He's my very first boyfriend and he's a great great great guy.


    He's extremely smart, he has gorgeous eyes, he's buff, he's easy to talk to, he's considerate, everything.


    he's a great guy, i say this from the bottom of my heart.





    I used to love him, or ';like'; if you may say but i'm guessing i'm a bit too young for that kind of stuff.


    I'm going to be turning 16 very soon and he's my first boyfriend.


    I describe him like he's a girls dream but it's because he is but not in that way for me.


    I don't see him as a significant other anymore, he's more like a friend now.


    My heart doesn't skip when he does things other couples do, it feels akward and i really dislike the feeling i get, it's like a bit of guilt and a bit of me trying to make him stop all jumbled up.


    It's honestly reall y complicated for me, sometimes i wish i just never met him.


    I used to be head over heels for him but now, it's not like that aymore, he's like a friend now.





    I think i like being single more, it doesn't feel like i have any restrictions set on me.


    Please help.How to break up with your boyfriend in the nicest way possible?
    I truly believe that you should treat others the way you want to be treated. So, try putting yourself in his position. How would you want someone to break the news to you?





    You didn't cite that there's anything really wrong with him. It's just that you want to move on and try dating other people. There's nothing wrong with that, especially at 15 years old.





    Tell him that he's a great guy but you don't feel the same way about him as you used to and that you'd like to see other people.





    No matter how you tell him, it's going to hurt his feelings because he's not going to see it coming. But being honest and forthright without being harsh is the way to go. Let him down easily, but truthfully.How to break up with your boyfriend in the nicest way possible?
    Just walk away and cut all contact. He'll wonder what happened, but it's easier for both of you in the end if there's no confrontation or miserable lies to try and make either of you 'feel better'. Eventually you'll both be able to move on...
    First - Tell ONLY the truth, obviously =) you don't want him thinking he's done something wrong or anything. Tell him you just.. feel differently now, and you feel like you'd rather be friends etc. And as special as he is, you want to go out and have fun and live the single life for a while. Hope that helps, GL!
    Tell him all that, make him feel important to you, but as a friend.


    There's no perfect way to break up with a guy if he really likes you.


    Chances are though, he feels the same way.


    The chemistry dies in a lot of relationships and both people can feel it.


    Just talk to him.


    Good luck!

    the first thing you do is just talk to him for a little bit and say something that u dont like about him then be like im not gonna give u a lie your really great and all but i dont fell the same about you anymore i am sooo sorry but i want to break up
    You have to tell him the truth. It's not fair to either of you to continue this way. Also, what happens if you do get feelings for another guy? It will hurt him more if you have to tell him this, so do it now before any other factors come into play.
    good for you it seems like you gave up on trying to mend things with him so youll probably regret that for sure one day,he might still be restricted so try to lift that off him and good luck in the future
    I totally know what u mean!! Just tell him how you feel, about the young and needing to be free. Tell him maybe later but right now you're young and wanna live ur life. If all else fails tell him you think you're attracted to women:)
    i no how you feel just explain to him that you dont feel the way that he explain your feelings and tell him you are truely sorry but you find him more as a friend then a boyfriend
    Tell him you don't love him anymore.
    sleep with his best friend and he will break up with you. Then you don't have to worry about it
    The way you're telling us is nice and truthful. Just sit down with him and tell him honestly how you feel.. He will understand.
    dang ur **** to long too read so just say im dying with cancer aww sorry never call me again =]
    Just be honest and tell him how you feel...be quick and to the point don't drag it out
    oh god, i was in the exact same situation when i got my first bf too..and i guess this is natural and many of my friends had freaked out when they were suddenly in a relationship..


    When you are used in all that freedom it feels weird to be involved with someone and i understand what you say that it feels awkward when you kiss for example because you don't have feelings any more..


    The solution? Talk to him..it's not the end of the world.explain him exactly what you feel, you are so young and you need freedom, it was sth new for new and you still care about him (you wanna stay friends right?) but not be a couple any more


    This doesn't mean he will never talk to you again..be honest and tell him the truth, he doesn't deserve to be treated like that


    i took the decision and broke up with that amazing guy, and i know i was stupid to let him go but you know what? just because he is every girl's dream doesn't mean he is the right for you as well..my current bf is a mess, he is funny and he is shy but he is the right for me


    that is why we still date :P good luck girl
    1.) you say that you ';used to love him'; which means that you never loved him and thats okay.


    2.) Your 16, and its rare to keep someone that age for the rest of your life, you have to live love and enjoy life.


    3.)If your feeling restricted than you should definitally break up with him. The easiest way to tell him, is to say that you do like him (even if its a lie, sugarcoating helps a lot), but right now is not the time for you to be in a relationship. Tell him that you want to focus on school. Elaborate on that and put it into your own words.





    Basically you are feeling trapped and trapped isnt good at all and its not healthy. Dont look for love it will come to you, there is no rush. And one day when you do feel that the world is standing still and your heart skips a beat when u meet the man of your dreams you will know that it is all worth it.
    There is nothing wrong with the way you are feeling, so there is no need to feel guilt in ending this. You are very young and are allowed to be free. Just be honest with him.





    See, the thing is, if you're too nice, or you say you're into girls or any other bs, he'll know you're lying and it will hurt him much more than the truth would. Give him the respect he deserves as a great guy and play it cool. Tell him the truth.

    How do you break up with your boyfriend; if you are the first one he had sex with but he is not your first?

    ok my friend has been with this guy for about 4 months and she has tried to break up with him twice but the first time HE cried for her back and the sec. time he told her that she was his first interaction, but the kiker is he lied to her about his virganty; he told her that he lost it at 15 but he didnt. so now she fells guilty and she peties him. she wants to break up with him bc he cries way to much, and when she was sick he wouldnt quite touching her and trying to kiss her, oh and he already gave her a ingagement ring and he is only 17 and shes 16 and she is not ready for that, he wants her to have his baby. hell no i think but she wanted others oppion.

    so im asking on her behalf what should she do; keep this guy or kick him to the curb?How do you break up with your boyfriend; if you are the first one he had sex with but he is not your first?
    Kick it to the curb. He's 17, but needs to learn how to grow up. Its ok to cry, but the way you described it make that guy sound like a total wimp, pushover and pussy. Let him know of course in a nice way. If he cries, he'll get over it. Thats what we are desigened to do, move on if something bad happens. TCHow do you break up with your boyfriend; if you are the first one he had sex with but he is not your first?
    Why on earth would she keep him? So she could live her entire life for pity of this pathetic guy?

    No way. Tell her to lose him. He sounds a little unstable. And she has to be strong enough to ignore him if he cries or whatever else he does to manipulate her feelings.
    the guys a creep. he is too attahced to her.

    DUMP HISS BUTT :)
    Well, I think she should hold out for a MAN to get married to.. Besides, she is WAY too young to be getting married... Breaking up is hard, but I can tell you, marriage and then getting divorced, with kids is the hardest. I think she just needs to be strong. She needs to point blank tell him that she is sorry, but she can't do this any more... If he starts to cry and she has pity, then it is really her own fault since she can't break up with him. She just needs to not take his calls or anything.



    It is hard, but do-able... Been there and done that.
    What a P**SY! she needs a real man!

    Tell him that your friend is have sex with other guys already.
    When you are the first person to have sex with someone it does tend to make that person get very attached. She can not worry about how bad it hurts him. He is 17! He will have plenty of other women in his life just as she will have many other men. I think it is a little young to get married. She just needs to tell him that she wants to meet other people and have more experiences and to tell him to do the same. Your heart can't help who it loves...
    I think she really needs to let him go and tell him exactly why after that no contact..they are young and life goes and she may be the 1st and the last to take his virginity but she wont be the last to break his heart..Believe me he'll get over it..
    She needs to just dump him and pity him from afar.
    if he crys a lot then he just a baby and will never be a grown man. If hes ready 4 marriage and shes not then that isnt a good relationships including she 2 young and has a life that she needs to injoy first b4 all this.
    well....... honestly i have been in a relationship for 5 months and when i broke up with my boy7friend he cried t0o get me back i thought he was t0o soft for me and i HATE da soft type i love da aggresive type but yea and i had to realize that if a boy,man is cryin he really d0oes care about u maybe he just d0oesnt want t0o loose her the things you say about her boyfriend remind me of mine seriously everything!!!!!!!(scary) but yea and sometimes i think he is t0o soft for me and i wanna break up with him but maybe he really wants t0o be with your friend maybe he just aint a HIT IT AND QUIT GUY she should be happy dat he most boys all say they want females to have they baby its just some dumb **** they always say cuz they think that females like that

    How do you break up with your boyfriend who you want to stay good friends with?

    I have been dating one of my best friends for 2 1/2 months now and I feel that we were better as friends. He always seems down and upset while we are together. He almost said I love you last week while we were talking on the phone. Tomorrow we are supposed to do something but I don't want to string him along if I feel like we should break up. But at the same time I don't know if I really want to break up with him. We just don't seem to have the same interests anymore. Like I love musicals and he just doesn't and Isn't willing to go see them with me even though we are dating. If we do break up I want to stay friends...How would I go about doing this???How do you break up with your boyfriend who you want to stay good friends with?
    Sorry, it's just not possible imo.How do you break up with your boyfriend who you want to stay good friends with?
    U can never be friends with an ex. Either you will still have feelings or they will.
    im sure he wont be too upset considering its only be 2 and a half months.

    let him down lightly.

    he'll be able to take it, and do it as soon as possible, because that would be stringing him along.

    and if you would like to remain friends i reccommend you do it face to face,
    Make sure it doesn't take him by surprise. Slowly lead him too it and then when the time is right just do it. I've had friends who are still very good friends with thier ex's its just kinda akward at first but then gets a lot better.
    you cant be friends with a ex
    Well tell him just that. There is really no easy way to say it. just start out with saying that you really love him with all of ur heart but as a friend. and the realationship really isnt working out for you, but you still want to be good friends. Make sure to listen to what he has to say.... He may be a bit upset but trust me he will cool off soon. Good luck
    Its hard to stay friends. Its just awkward, you will probably lose him for a while, but maybe you will become friends in the future again. If he seems down when you are together, he might have the same feelings as you. Try talking to one of your mutual trusting friends about it. They may know more about what he is feeling than you do.
    Lie! who says u cant be friends with ur ex?i broke up with mine and one day i sent him a message saying ';are we still friends?';and he responded ';i thought u were mad at me...'; and i said ';no'; and we've been hanging out ever since!=]
    i think it would be really hard to still be friends with him. either way, you shouldn't string him along; either you like him or you dont and it seems that you dont feel like you did earlier in your relationship; maybe you like the idea of being in a relationship, but youre not particularly attracted to the guy anymore. if you choose to break up, definitely keep in mind his feelings and try not to hurt him, especially since you said he almost told you he loves you
    Maybe there is a reason he is down and upset why don't you try help him and ask him why he is sad around you and if he is happy with you? If you are unsure to end the relationship I wouldn't jump into it, as you may look around and realize you wasn't ready to loose him like that. It will be tough for you both to go back to being friends straight away as it'll be very weird for him and you.



    Just because you don't like the same things, like a musical that's not a problem? Go and see a musical with your friends who enjoy them. Having things in common isn't a key thing in a relationship, its fun love trust and happiness. And if you don't have them then its pretty pointless I guess. But just work on it, if you still like him don't give up on him just yet.





    Good luck x

    How to break up with your Boyfriend?

    Okay well, i am 14 and i am in 8th grade.

    I have been going out with this guy for about 4 months and everything was great, but now im getting bored and hes starting to get on my nerves. Iv thought about this alot but im pretty sure im going to break up with him because im young and i kinda just want to ';play the fields'; if thats what you want to call it.

    My question is though, how should i do it?

    Iv broken up with many guys before but since i was like 13 or 12, i just did it by texting because it wasnt that big of a deal, but now im not so sure. And I want to do it in the least hurtful way possible. Thanks =)How to break up with your Boyfriend?
    have fun with it!! :) :)

    hahahahah

    your in 8th grade

    be creative

    hahah

    tell me how it goesHow to break up with your Boyfriend?
    Say it's not him it's you and that you need time to deal with some issues that require you to have individual time.
    just do it. dont text or email, face to face. or else it makes it worse. one time this guy broke up with me without telling me and i asked him about it and he literaly ran away. dont do that
    just b like....... mannn ur borin..... forget u lol....... nawww..... just b straight up and tell em the truth......
    I will tell you what I just told my own teenage daughter, It is better that you tell him yourself and in person (but not with an audience), and be honest. Just tell him that you are not interested anymore and you just want to be friends (if you want to be friends). Think about how you would feel if the roles were reversed - in other words put yourself in his shoes.
    Well i don't think breaking up with text would be hurtful if he's serious about you since he would feel like u don't care about him at all. So just do it after school in person or something.

    Do not I repeat DO NOT dump him over the phone, in a text message or in an e-mail. Do it in person. It may be harder and you might feel like a complete butt head but it's better that way, trust me. How would you like to get an e-mail saying ';I'm sorry but it's over, it's not you it's me blah blah blah';. Do it in person and you wont have regrets and you'll feel much better and that person will to.How to break up with your boyfriend?
    Do it over the phone. That's what I have done in the past.
    not to be an @$$ but i dont think middle schoolers should even start think about dating. all you guys do is b17ch and moan when your bf/gf breaks up with you like 5 min. later
    just be honest about how you feel. and dont do it over texts thats low.
    I just send gals a text saying ';welcome to dumpsville population: YOU'; AND THEN IGNORE THEM COMPLETELY. works every time
    wow i had the same problem in 8th grade, and how i did it was over the phone. But i must warn you think about what you are doing first, i had felt the same way and was fine untill like 3months later. Now i kinda miss him:[ and it's sad that i was the one who ended it.





    but tell him the truth bout that you just lost interest.....maybe he will try harder or maybe he will feel the same way

    goodluck

  • How to break up with your boyfriend for the second time?

    Ive been friends with this boy for about a year now.About 3 weeks ago he asked me out.Since i used to be his best friend i would always help him threw his break ups.The other day i realized i only liked him as a friend and i explained i couldnt date him anymore.Later that day i thought I made a mistake an i told him that and i know i shouldnt have gone back out with him.He rushes things alot and i dont like that.He got me a necklace that says my name and i love you on the back.Im afraid if i break up with him that ill hurt him forever and i dont want that.I was thinking of sending signals but what kinda signals?He says hes ';in love with me';.So no matter what i do hell probably still like me.Hes just that kinda guy.So what should i do?



    thanks~How to break up with your boyfriend for the second time?
    Sounds like you've made a mess of things, to be really honest. However, all is not lost, honey. You just have to be honest, completely and utterly. Don't do it over text. It's hard but you owe it to him to do it in person. Think about him and his feelings, not yourself when you do it. I'm not saying you are selfish or anything, but it's easy to get caught up in ourselves when we are dumping people, because we still want them in our lives just 'not in that way'. You have to keep in mind he probably will be very, very hurt and might not talk to you for a while. Without knowing him, that could be a matter of days, weeks or even longer. Since you are doing the dumping, you'll have to accept that and realise he is probably going through more pain and upset than you. If he badgers you afterwards, telling you he loves you, don't take pity and go out with him again. Again, just be honest and admit you made a mistake. Tell him you will be there to be his friend when he is ready. That you love who he is, but do not 'love' him in that way.



    Hope that helped!

    HELP! How do you break up with your boyfriend?

    I really hate breaking up with my boyfriends



    1. because i feel mean



    2. I still want to be friends but don't know how to phrase it just the right way...



    So I need advice on how to break up with him. I guess I kind of just lost interest in him. He still gushes about how much he misses me when we're apart and I tell him I miss him too because I don't have the heart to say that I don't feel the same way anymore and to me, our conversations just die.



    So can u comment back how and where i should break up with him. Thank you D:HELP! How do you break up with your boyfriend?
    don't do it!!!!!!!!!!!



    http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfHELP! How do you break up with your boyfriend?
    look you were (good, great, okay) however you want to describe your relationship with him was then procede to say you are just not what i need in a partner
    Just be honest and dont drag him along.

    ';I want to see other people';
    however you tell him... do it face to face!!! none of this sh*t on the phone or txtn, its not fair!!
    Be straight forward. No one appreciates vague-ness.
    Start with telling him that you need to breakup, so he won't get confused.



    Give him the reasons why you want to breakup.



    Then to end tell him you still want to be good friends.



    Hug, goodbye.



    Then:



    Please, talk to him the next day telling us you want to be good friends and never trying to communicate with us makes us feel that you're lying.
    Whatever you do, dont dump him on msn, phone, text etc. Cause it is quite harsh.

    Meet up with him and tell him you have to talk. And just say to him; Look, your a really good guy, and i still want to be your friend, but i dont think its going to work out anymore.



    Good luck!

    Hope everything goes alright!
    OK. now this may sound harsh, but it's the only way



    stop being so pathetic. if you keep up this attitude then you will always have problems ending relationships.



    You have to think logically WHY you want to end it, and then find a way of telling him that won't be really mean. right?



    if you still want to be friends, you don't have to say it in any other way than 'I still want to be friends, cause i really value having you around.'



    Simple as?



    good luck



    emma
    It depends how long you have been with him

    I would say in person, if you have had a good relationship. If it was just a flimsy then over the phone i suppose.

    You could say something like ';Hey...look, im really not sure if i feel the same way anymore...its just, alot of things have been hapening and i really dont know if i can handle it. I really want to be friends with you because i care about you so much! but i just dont think im ready for this. I'm really sorry, but i hope we could possibly try being together again another time...its just things in my life are not exactly great right now. I hope you can understand....



    (put a few more happy nice things in there to make you sound caring too)
    Tell him the truth, you've lost interest, and you still think he's a great guy, but it's unfair of you to be in a relationship where there is no love involved.

    Ultimately, the chances of him staying friends with you is slim, and that's to be brutally honest, but it's unfair to drag him along, because it seems like he really loves you.



    I hope this helps.

    You are only getting more unhappy by the day as you stay in this relationship. I am sure he feels that something is up... via your actions, emotions and attitude.

    Don't string him along. Tell him honestly that it isn't working out. It may hurt him, but he will get over it.

    If you truely want to be friends with him then it may be difficult at first and he may not want to be. I hope you are able to accept that.

    You also need to think about yourself and make yourself happy and that comes first.
    well firstly i think its really harsh to breakup with someone if they dont know its coming...meet with him face to face, and say you kinda feel the sparks gone, and that you arent enjoying everything as much as you used to, that you still care about him but you arent sure how much anymore, see how it goes from there... give him a few days, and if its still not working, see him again, tell him that you really like him, but you feel its time to move on, and if you honestly want to be friends, then talk to him after like you talk to your friends... tbh you may find all you need is a small step back to get your relationship back on track
    I think you should do it as soon as possible,

    and make sure its face to face, not over a text or email.

    You have to do whats right stop leading him on

    and don't be a coward. Of Course it going to hurt him,

    so he may get upset or mad but you have to put up with that.

    Remind him that you still want to be friends,... if he explain to

    you that he doesn't want to'; then give him a few days to get over it,

    then ask him if you are friends, keep asking if he keeps rejecting,...

    but after a while i think you should give up,... because if he is going

    to be acting stupid about it then,.. its his fault.

    I think you are doing the right thing, and i hope you stay friends,

    and i hope it turns out.

    -Bella
    Breaking up is like throwing up. You reach a point where you know you're going to have to, and part of you knows that you'll feel better once it's over with, but you really don't want to. So, you fight it for a while, and the whole time you feel sick. Only after the inevitable happens can you feel better.



    The best way I've found to approach a break up is to take it from the perspective that you're not doing anyone a favor by staying in a relationship that isn't right. It's not him, and it's not you. You're both great people, you're just not right for each other, so it's time for both of you to move on and find a better match. You're not being mean, just realistic.



    While you explain this to him, you can also tell him that you'd like to remain friends, but depending on how the break up goes, you may need a little time apart to let the emotions calm down a little. Otherwise you might get stuck in a bit of a loop of getting back together and breaking up again.



    As for how, where, when... If the conversations tend to die, that could be a good opportunity to bring it up. Find a good moment where you're really not connecting, and it might even end up being a mutual agreement when you talk about it. Good luck.
    When faced with a problem like this, complete honesty is almost always the solution. Express ALL your feelings. Not just the ones about not feeling the same anymore and not wanting to be his girlfriend but also that you are feeling lousy about having to say it and realize you may be hurting him and that bothers you.



    He may be hurt but he'll get over it. Nobody actually dies from a broken heart. If you want to be a decent person to yourself and him do it and get it overwith. It's okay, that's just life. Good luck.
    I'm going through a very similar situation right now. So heres what i'm going to do. I'm going to ask how to go take a walk in the park with me. I'm going sit him down, and then tell him that I'm just not feeling it anymore. But if i were you, i would think through what he might say after you break up wih him, just to be sure.

    How can you tell if your boyfriend wants to break up with you?

    when he starts ignoring you

    How to break up with your boyfriend?

    ok well, me and him dated for about 10 months, then we got into an argument, and we broke up. its been 3 months and me and him still talked like every day, we had confessed that we still liked each other but neither 1 of us did anything about it.

    about 2 days ago i had told him that i was officially over him and that i was ready to move on (over myspace)

    the next day he called me and this was our conversation



    him: so i see you've moved on?

    me: yeah,

    him: i was thinkin about askin you back out

    me: its kinda too late 4 that

    him: so whos the guy you like now?

    me: cant tell you

    him: please!

    me: brad, but theres a story behind this

    him: ok, are you going out with anyone right now

    you have to tell the other guy that it was a mistake and that your over him...dont be mean about it but hes going to get hurt either way so just be honest with him...dont tell him you like this brad better cuz that just wont help matters...simply tell him you dont feel the same way about him anymore



    best of luck

  • How do u get your boyfriend to break up with you?

    My boyfriend is becoming a little to clingy. And when I dont feel like going to see him he gets mad.How do u get your boyfriend to break up with you?
    you will eventualy shake him. maybe you should just tell him. He has feeling too.How do u get your boyfriend to break up with you?
    Why does he have to break up with you? Do you not have the power of speech? Break up with him. It's easy. You say to him, ';I don't think we should go out anymore.';
    hes def gay.
    you idiot.



    don't play him. just break up with him.
    THAT'S THE COWARD'S WAY OUT. BREAK UP WITH HIM AND GET IT OVER WITH.
    Just be the better person and break up with him. Tell him its not working out and that you don't want to see him any more. If you wait for him to do it you may be waiting for a very looooong time.
    The best thing is to tell him. I know you want to spare his feelings, but lightly telling him whats wrong will be a point of a honest, open relationship.
    Do it straight up, but be gentle because he may be a secret psycho and you don't want him stalking you...
    You say,'; Listen, dear, You are getting a bit too clingy for my liking. I think its best if we stop dating.';
    Tell him your too clingy %26amp; I don't want to be your girlfriend anymore. (duh)
    go kiss a guy in front of him, that will make him more mad and will break up with you
    The best thing for you to do is to try to understand him and his personality. He's clingy and you are not. There is still help for you if you can compromise with him. It all starts with communication! Good luck!
    break up with him.
    Tiffany, you are a grown up, strong, independent woman. You don't need to get him to break up with you. Break up with him. Just do it. It will hurt, more than you think, but it's part of being in a relationship. You owe yourself, and him. Do the right thing girl!
    Umm you should just break up with him. But if you want him to break up with you then make it obvious your seeing another guy and date someone else and have him catch you. That should work.
    Be honest with him. Tell him how you feel. Don't play games girl! Just break up with him if things aren't working. Good luck.
    Why dont you just break up with him instead of making him do it. You need to be honest and just tell him you dont like how clingy he is and you dont want ot be with him.
    Don't shower on a regular basis.
    That is what's wrong with boy/girl relationships... expecting behaviour and commitment as if they were grown up and married. The best way to 'break up' from your boyfriend is to TELL him to get lost and leave you alone !! If he does not then it become harassment and tell the police !! - Or you may prefer the other method... make sure he sees you kissing another guy... that should do it !!
    Geez you going to get upset about someone being clingy? He just likes you, thats all whats wrong with that?

    Anyway, you wanna get him to break up with you, easy...

    find out who it is he absolutely hates...find that guy...and make out with him in front of him, be sure to be seen holding his hands...and have that guy go up to him or you go up to him and say something like...hey this guy and I, he wants to have sex with me, and I think I am going to take him up on his ofer...promise you he will leave then!!!
    You can always began to ignore him a bit more, and find things that take your time as if they where more importat than him, and he mite not want to be with you no more after you have mostly leave him by himself for other activities.
    You have to prepare for it. First, ask hm for a cool off time, it's for yourself and for the relationship. You have to make it clear what is it that you don't want with him, if he is just being too clingy that is so shallow, love is the basis for this and not his constant attachment to you. Tell him that you're feeling too choked up with the relationship and needs time to think it over, give a timeframe (1 or 2 weeks)so he will not be waiting forever (if you really planing continue breaking up with him). Then after that you might think of things like do you really want him back, or the reasons maybe of why you don't him back and of course with this, you also need to think of plans of how to deliver this?
    Who says you can't break up with him? Women have just as much rights and power as men. Don't wait for him to do it. If you feel uncomfortable dating him, do the right thing and let him know.

    How Do You Get Your Boyfriend To Break Up With You ?

    Okay, Well, My friend wants her boyfriend to break up with her.

    but she doesnt want to hurt his feelings.

    shes already tried telling him straight forward, %26amp; he got REALLLY upset,

    so, think of a way, that she can get him to dump her, because she doesnt care if her heart gets broken, but she just wants to break up..

    k,laterbaby.How Do You Get Your Boyfriend To Break Up With You ?
    So she decided not to break it off cause he got really upset?

    Lord help him if this is the only trial in life he ever has to go through.

    Tell her to be frank with him. Tell her to tell him that she no longer wants to be his gf and its over. Period.

    Dont beat around the bush about it. Being honest will be the easiest in the long run.

    Tell her to just do it. He will be fine in a few days.How Do You Get Your Boyfriend To Break Up With You ?
    Have her tell him that she has AIDS. Or that she wants to have a baby.
    well you cant really break up without making him upset. but you can always tell her to say ';lets be friends for now'; then work it from there. good luck and happy life.
    tell her to just break up wit him...

    email me sometime???
    start trying to flirt with another guy in front of him or just act distant to him
    have her say she cheated on him and if you think that is to mean you go up to him and tell him your friend wants to break up and if he doesnt like that say your friend is gay
    grow up.
    hahahhahahaha thats funny
    Tell her to stop having sex with the guy ... nothing gets us men to run away faster than the prospect of no sex !!!!
    She needs just to stop communicating with him. Cut all ties. He will get the message. So what if he gets upset, life goes on.
    If she wants to break up , then she should do it. Why do something stupid to tick him off or humiliate him so that he will break up with her. Makes no sense, either way he is going to get hurt.
    Seth: Easy answer. Watch How to lose a guy in 10 days. It has all you need to know for you or your friend.



    Damon: Your friend needs to do it herself!!! And shes a little ***** for not getting her heart broken its like she just wants a boyfriends to kiss or something.
    Watch the movie ';How to lose a guy in 10 days'; it spells everything out. It would give you the best ways to get him out of her hair!
    she should flirt with other guys and not spend time with him.....

    sooner or later he's going to get the picture if that doesnt hurt she should just break up with him....it might hurt him but its better than being with some one you dont want to be with.....

    hope i helped babe.....

    %26lt;3
    Are you saying that your girlfriend told her boyfriend that she would stay with him because he got really upset? Is she afraid to leave him? Otherwise, I don't understand why she won't leave him regardless of how upset he gets. If this is the case, he will not let her go. She needs to be careful.
    tell your friend if she wants it to end that badly she needs to grow a back bone and end it herself sooner than later cause if he's that attached to her she'll hurt him less doing it sooner than later
    I think she should just tell him straight forward that it is over. If it is really over she will not care that he gets so upset. Just plain tell him it is over and if that doesn't work the first couple of times she should just start seeing other people or just not hang out with him anymore.
    well is actually better for her to let him know that she has no feelings for him anymore. The thing is that he needs to understand that this relationship has no future and if he just is too stubborn then you or another girl friend could help her out pretending that you want to go on a date with him u dont need to kiss or anything, just let him be visible i dont know be on public hold his hand or let him hug you, then she will walk up to u guys and tell him that she did not expect this from any of u, and vuala the relationship is over, he might beg her for a while but then he will get tired. believe me and then he will leave her alone.
    okay tell her to start hanging around more guys and flirt with them!!! he will get jealous and then think she doesnt like him anymore!!! also whenever he comes over just kinda dont talk to him and then will get mad then eventully get the point..
    those all are good
    tell your friend to pretend she likes someone else and make sure her boyfriend thinks she likes someone else and then she will think she is cheating on her and eventually they will break up
    lol say i love you.







    when on of my ex didnt get the hint i called my gf and told her about a hook up i had the night before. i got into explict details while my bf was coming down stairs. i acted like i didnt know he was there and got into more explicted details.



    when i got off the phone he was asking me all kinds of questions and i kept saying none of your business. he called me a few names but i have not seen him since.



    of course the story i told my gf was not true................. not yet anyway LOL
    It is great that she tried to be straight with him, and that is actually what she needs to do. Have her take mutual guy friend with her when she talks to him again. That way, the friend can stay with him and help him get through it. She should be upfront and tell him that it is just time for it to end. Get straight to the point and then LEAVE. Your mutual friend should stay and talk it out with him, not your friend. After that, no phone calls, no texting, no email.... only a clean break will work. Good luck!
    leave him?

    What do you when you break up with your boyfriend after?

    how to slove your own problemsWhat do you when you break up with your boyfriend after?
    It really depends on your age. If your young I'm sure you will realize that men will come and go. There are plenty of fish in the sea. Before you can love someone else you have to love yourself and realize your own faults. Have fun and give yourself a break before you jump into another relationship. Make sure you have someone to talk your problems out with!What do you when you break up with your boyfriend after?
    after what?
    Move on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I broke up with mine 4 months ago and now Im having the time of my life still he' doesnt knows what he is missing!!!!!
    find another
    Keep yourself busy. Find things to do, and have some fun. There's nothing wrong with being friends with him, or being nice to him. Just don't hang out with him all the time, because that will just make things harder for the both of you.

    Is it wrong to break up with your boyfriend just because he is too jealous?

    At first I liked it but now it is getting worse,he doesn't like me hanging out with my friends not to mention my male friends...

    and I wonder,how will he react if I tell him...

    please help meIs it wrong to break up with your boyfriend just because he is too jealous?
    it's not wrong. maybe it's even a good thing, because that way he might understand that he is too jelous. but be aware. he might not understand it right away and will make your live living hell if you leave.

    it's not a nice situation you are in, but show him your boundaries!Is it wrong to break up with your boyfriend just because he is too jealous?
    No its smart
    Nope if he does not trust you you don't need him around!
    No possessive overbearing guys usually turn into abusive men, control freaks, and worse......... murderers.
    break up asap. being in a relationship with a possessive and jealous person can leave you with permanent scars
    he does not trust and it will get worse ---- he must trust you completely ---- if he does not he either needs to shape up or ship him out
    It sounds like you would be dumping him for being to controlling, which is a fine reason to cut him loose.

    -NmD!
    Jealousy is a clear sign of insecurity as well as immaturity.



    We all suffer it at some level, but with a sense of maturity this can be overcome.



    If he is stiffling you and preventing your own personal growth and persuit of things you value - I don't see how you can find it wrong.



    How will he react depends on his maturity level - my best guess is he'll react childishly, have a fit, be angry, cry, beg...and stalk you hoping you'll break.



    If you stand firm on the break up, he'll eventually grow up.



    If you waffle and take him back - he'll be okay for a very short while - called ';the honeymoon period';, and then he'll resume to his old ways again.



    Cut him loose.



    ';You can't live with another until you first learn to live with yourself';
    its smart thing to do...but if u love him a lot..then you will regret the decision...maybe you can try telling him as to how much it bugs you and help him improve...if it works out (well most men dont listen to criticism-but what the hell,u wud hv tried) so if it works out - then yr bonding will be stronger...its a good idea to invest in precious relationships...
    Never mind him, do whats best for you. I agee a little jealousy is sexy sometimes, but when it reaches a certain level its a problem. If you don't stop it now it WILL only get worse, I know.

    End it before it breaks your beliefs and important friendships.
    he should have a limit so above that it not tolerable
    This kind of extreme jealousy should alert you that this is a very serious concern and it won't get better. Think of how trapped you will continue to feel if you even have to worry about seeing female friends. He appears to have big control needs and appears to be insecure. I wouldn't want to find myself in this unhealthy kind of relationship. It is not only ';not wrong'; to break up with someone for this reason it is also advisable.
    No there is nothing wrong with breaking up with him for those reasons. We have to realize that jealously is just as dangeous as anger. Sounds like your friend has a self esteem problem. Until he deals with that, he will continually lash out at his loved ones.

    Be careful in the breakup, make sure he is not abusive in any other ways.
    The best thing in a healthy relationship is sharing and respect. If you can engage in a frank conversation with him, and if your really do not give reason for him to feel insecure about your relationship (if you are used to flirting for fun, provoking other guys, ...) it is best to know exactly what you want from this relationship. There are better things to do in life than to feed a gruge. You can only learn about his reaction if you try. If you feel guilty, you will probably start an argument and that won't do. Make sure you know where you stand first.
    Being overly possessive and / or jealous is the character trait of a person with severe control issues and one of the major warning signs of a potential abuser. Isolating you from friends and family is only the first step. He will not stop until there is not a shred of your personality left. Get out while you still can.
    Yes it's wrong. I've personally experience this before exactly as a guy who doesnt want her girl to mingle w/ guys. Well, i've realized/learned alot after loosing the girl that i really love.



    Now I know the root cause why this exact scenario happens and can be resolved. You both needed to talk hear to heart, honestly and be open. Remember that indiferrences even exist in marriage.



    TALK ABOUT THE REASONS OF WHY YOU LOVE EACH OTHER ALL THE TIME, and you will both likely strengthen TRUST, the element that kills the killer 'jealousy'
    jealousy can lead to obsession, obsession can lead to a rage, rage is how people get physically hurt. Jealous now? wait until you are married... he'll come home and abuse you because he loves you.... sorry that's not love

    answer: find someone who really loves you, not obsessed with you
    Jelousy meanz he lovez u. So, it wouldn't be a good idea to break up just for that reazon, but only if u love him back..

    if thatz the case, try talking to him , let him understand how bad hiz jelousy makez u feel.
    Well Kylie if ur not happy i'd just dump him,its easy to see he dont trust u by not liking u around ur friends etc,ur a family mum like me and we all love a bit of dik and puss so dump his **** and go have fun like u love to have......
    yes you should brake it up with your boyfriend. you should have your froend and he his. I would like to get to know you more and see if we can be a couple.



    thank you Rick.
    Dump him girl!! He doen't trust you. Good relationships should have some kind of trust in them and if he gets jealous when you hang out with your friends, then he isn't worth it.
    hm, this is hard. If he wasn't jealous you would probably wonder what is wrong with him! Jealousy is normal because it shows you like (or love) the person. However, if it gets to be too much, I would just sit down and talk with him, that's all you can do. Explain how you feel when he gets jealous or why you don't like him giving rules because then you feel guilty doing something when you probably aren't even doing anything bad. I have this same problem with me and my boyfriend except it is reversed. I think sometimes when a person doesn't show as much interest as the other one, its easy to get jealous because you are wondering if they really like you. Say you hang out with guys all the time but are sometimes too busy to hang out with you boyfriend. Stuff like that might make him think, oh, so I guess she doesn't like me as much as them. So you should DEFINITELY prove to him that you like him more than anyone else, give him attention, talk to him, and tell him how much he means to you. If you just talk to him without it acting like you truly care, thats the same thing that friends do. There are many reasons why people can get jealous (insecurity, long distance, if a past gf/bf cheated and you have doubts what your new one is doing, feeling that they have lost interest in you) so I would be patient before just dumping him.

    How do you get your boyfriend to break up with you nicely?

    i want to break up with my boyfriend but hes to nice i like him but i just feel i would be happier single.How do you get your boyfriend to break up with you nicely?
    i do not understand, you also posted a question about wanting to have sex with him? you have conflicting questions! definitely DO NOT have sex if you're going to be breaking up with him!!! DOH!How do you get your boyfriend to break up with you nicely?
    ask yourself why do you want to break up with him. Check out the book ';Fit for Love';, might really open your eyes.
    Start picking your nose and other disgusting stuff. /smile
    i think you've got the right idea, you are a little young to be in any type of serious relationship. Let him know that you need your space. I'm sure that you have a lot going for you, and he should respect your need for time to yourself.

    Wouldn't you break up with your boyfriend iF...........?

    1) never celebrates anything....got you nothing for your birthday not even a love note/card....doesn't do anything for your anniversary. gives you a LAME eCard for valentines day instead of a fun little inside joke handwritten card.....





    2) calls you by an ex-girlfriend's name [that he had been broken up with for 3 years! already]





    3) still goes out to lunch with his ex-girlfriend





    4) talks to his ex-girlfriend on the phone iN FRONT of YOU





    5) you buy him a Wii as an early christmas present the 1st week of december...camped out and everything for it.....and he doesn't even have the decency to wish you a MERRy CHRisTMAS on christmas day [and you guys weren't planning on seeing each other for christmas]





    6) been dating a YEAR and a half and still haven't met ANY of his family....not even a brother...nothing





    7) emails you how he's worried about your slight weight gain...i'm 137lbs! sorry i'm not in the gym everyday jeeeZ!





    8) is judgemental,ungrateful,and unappreciative!Wouldn't you break up with your boyfriend iF...........?
    You know you're the ';other'; girl and not the girlfriend, right?Wouldn't you break up with your boyfriend iF...........?
    no
    So you mean to tell me all of that's happened and you still stuck by. Loser with a capital 'L'. You're probably just a booty call. Is reality finally sinking in?
    yeahhh definately.
    wow your dumb if your with a guy like that
    If you are still with him then it's your fault, sorry. If you let people treat you badly and hang around for more abuse and humiliation what do you expect? A proposal?
    hell ya. You don't deserve crap like that! Kick him and his sh*t to the curb and find a real man. maybe kick him where it hurts once or twice to get the point across too. ;)
    You should've ditched him 9 months ago.
    only if the wood is'nt hard.
    He would be out the door before he knew what hit him/
    Sounds like you already know you want to break up with him. I would have dumped him along time ago and took back that Wii!!
    from what you've said, i might. but, it depends if he's trying to do this or not. have you tried talking to him? maybe he doesn't realize you want these certain things... i don't know...*
    YES


    if a guy wont evan wish u a merry christmas and hangs out with his ex way too much then ya break up with him is my advuce for u.
    I should be your boyfriend to beat his *** and treat you real good.
    dude he sounds ungrateful and retarded....i'd let him break up with u....but if he doesnt and it's still not working leave his sorry @$$
    Sounds like my X do me a favor GET RID OF HIM, he will not change!!! Hes a loser!





    Please listen your happiness is more important!!!





    Please get rid of him!!!!
    uhmm YES just break up with him i mean i can tell your mad enough already you don't need to put up with that anymore
    dump that ungreatful junk!!! The nervE
    Yeah! I hope this 'signs' have not started from the beginning of your relationship, cause I would never put up with crap like that. You don't need this person in your life. You may feel that 'you love him' and 'you still have feelings', but accept them and let those feelings go and get rid of this guy. Don't waste your time and energy on someone who is not spending their time or energy on you. If your looking for a straight point answer...DUMP HIM!!
    If you've put up with it this long, I don't think you're going to take the advice of strangers.
    Girl you deserve better . You know what you need to do
    Of Course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Why not. It sounds like he is cheating on you. If your any one of these: nice, cute, and outgoing, or charming, you have better opportunities! Get a new boyfriend, girl!


    email me: riyamiyagirl@yahoo.com
    You obviously like the guy for some unearthly reason!But if thats the case then you should make him listen to you and tell him all these things and if he doesnt have a plausible explanation then i guess you should show some self- respect and say ADIOS to the guy.
    To tell the truth, I'm trying to figure out why you started dating him in the first place. Yes, you should dump him!
    Yes. Clearly he's either hiding something or he sees you as his ho babe. You do all for him and he doesn't give a rip about you.


    But... your numbers 1, 3, %26amp; 4 are not problems in and of themselves. Sheesh, an ecard is better than no card. And


    having lunch with an ex-girlfriend isn't that big a deal. Talking to her in front of you isn't a big deal either. (Behind your back would be an issue.)





    But the other items are deal breakers. Why do you even have to ask someone else's opinion? Clearly you think he's a dog so you might as well give it up.I can't believe that you bother with him. Dump him and get someone that you can respect and will respect you.
    I'd stay with him forever and ever. Of couuse I'd break up with him
    Um . . . yes. Good for you for finally getting rid of him. I don't know why you'd even start with a guy like that.
    ok, so it seems as if you can really answer your own question.. here is what u do. The same way you just listed about 10 reasons why you should break up with him.. develop a similar list of reasons not to break up with him and if it is not as long as the 1st list...... whoa la





    your answer!!!!
    leave him already

    How To Break-Up With Your Boyfriend Or Girlfriend???

    just try to keep it short and simple... hurts less that way.... give the other person a valid reason or an explanation why you think things wont work out... be honest..... all the best....How To Break-Up With Your Boyfriend Or Girlfriend???
    say ';i dont wanna go out any more';How To Break-Up With Your Boyfriend Or Girlfriend???
    Step 1. Call your girl friend/boy friend

    Step 2. I dont think it is right for us to be together its time to go our seperate ways.

    Step 3. Hang up the phone

    Step 4. Go play halo3
    hmm. it all depends on how emotional your bf or gf is. my most recent ex was soo emotional that i actually had to break up with him twice to finally get rid of him because i didnt want to hurt his feelings. that was before i found out that he was a jerk though.
    this isn't what i want right now. i'm sorry.
    One do it in person and not over the phone , email or text message. and be as nice as you can to let this person down and remember no matter what she or he is going to be hurt.
    Depends on how long it was going on for and how deep the relationship was... A couple of weeks could probably be done over the phone (depends tho on if they are likely to freak out, you shud be there if that might happen to calm the situation down). The best way is in person and by telling the truth (provided that the truth isnt outragious like im sleeping wit ur dad!!). Tell them they are great just not right for u-be nice! Try to ne as honest as possible-i think most people appreciate that.

    she is not my type anywayHow did you break up with your boyfriend/girlfriend?
    OK i had more than one breakup in my life.

    mostly it happened when she told me she do not want to continue.

    How do you break up with your boyfriend that use to be your best friend?

    i dont know how to put iy's over in the right words that seems nice i really need some advice because this relationship is boring no action or affection!!How do you break up with your boyfriend that use to be your best friend?
    you're a very shallow person if you base the entire relationship on ';action and affection';. seriously, this guy doesn't deserve a b*tch like yourself.How do you break up with your boyfriend that use to be your best friend?
    for one i'm not shallow for two you can kiss *** and have a nice day.Thankyou for giving me advice asswhole!

    Report Abuse


    HAHAHAHHAH that what i did and i don't think its shallow if it's not interesting why continue it makes no sense i can't stand when people are slow in relationships

    Report Abuse


    so tell him what you told us... the relationship is boring
    say it like it is and be honest!
    Just say that they should be friends. (I am on the phone with my boyfriend and he said that) Tell him u think it would be best if you were just friends.
    take him over to the side say u need 2 talk

    then tell him i think its best just 2 be friends

    ask him if hes ok with it

    if he says no say its the best thing 4 u bacause its not going very well

    give him a hug if u can and walk away
    if you really think it aint going to workout

    let him know how you feel and see what happens
    If the guy used to be your best friend it is going to be hard to maintain that friendship after you break up. Maybe you can work it out. Tell him you are getting bored in the relationship and the two of you need to do things to liven it up and tell him you need more affection. Communication is the key in a relationship. They are going to be boring periods in a relationship, but getting passed these times and making it work is what makes a relationship strong
    Use the old ';I still wanna be friends'; line.
    while holding hands say 'this isn't working out we get on better as friends. so would you mind if we went back to that. i love you and still want you in my life. you are my bestfriend and i hope you always will be but its down to you if you still want to be friends. i won't blame you if you don't' then kiss him on the cheek
    just tell him that its not working out and if he doesnt respond just tell him that it feels weird being boyfriend and girlfriend with one of your best friends.i have the same problem but my (ex)boyfriend believes we're still together but in 3rd grade we used to be best friends.
    If he use to be your best friend and is now your boyfriend it kinda means he still is your best friend just not like that. Ask him how he feels about the relationship first and then tell him exactly what is on your mind. If you guys are that bored, it will be the exact same thing being best friends and dating. Just talk to him about it.

    How do you know, when it's time to break up with your boyfriend? (teens)?

    I have been with my boyfriend for 2 months. I still love him but the relationship is going downhill I think. Sometimes, I feel it's okay and he loves me too, but other times i'm not so sure. Will someone give me a few points on how to know when it's time to break up and how the guy should act when it's time to break up?


    Please?x


    It's been such a rollarcoaster and days I come home happy and others so sad. It's really tearing me up xxxxHow do you know, when it's time to break up with your boyfriend? (teens)?
    Don't just break up with him because you're having bad times.


    Everyone does, even if you've been together your whole life.


    Try talking to him, maybe hes stressed out or has something going on with himself.


    Plus, don't say you love someone after 2 months.





    You never really 'know' when its time, but if hes making you feel down when you're alone or with your friends, hes not worth it.


    If you feel like you're in love with someone else, don't trust him, or just feel un interested.


    Just try talking to him firstHow do you know, when it's time to break up with your boyfriend? (teens)?
    hmm probably when your some 13 year old who shouldn't have a boyfriend anyways. no... i'm not making any implications.





    but seriously though your like what 12 or 13? you shouldn't have a boyfriend in the first place.





    EDIT: yeah... i did, but that doesn't mean that i went and got a girlfriend, you don't even know what love is lol.
    That's life hunny. Life isn't going to be perfect and neither are relationships. I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years and 2 months. I've felt like you before, unsure, and doubtful, full of curiosity on how things will turn out. Sometimes you have to go with the flow. If you guys get to the point where you find yourself trying to avoid each other, then you know something is wrong, but until then, just let it slide and have fun while your still young!! You have plenty of time to decide on ';real relationships'; later on in life.
    well if youre arent able to live your life pleasantly, then its not worth the time, but yet again, it can work out for the best, but its only been two months so you guys dont really love each other. the frist months are almost always the best, so if they are already bad, i would get out now and just work on being friends and if youre supposed to end up together again, then it will happen. :] good luck i'm sure you'll make a good decision (there is never a good time to break up with someone, but if they are bringing you down, then you need to)
    well you've been with him for only 2 months and it is already like that i think you should dump him RIGHT NOW
    If he is acting like he doesn't love you any more then it should be time to end it, but a 2 month relationship is a bit to much to throw away just like that you should talk to him and ask him questions like do you still love me? stuff like that and be honest!
    OK well the first thing to realise is that if you think its going badly, he probably doesn't have a clue!


    If you feel its not going well, then break up with him. I had a relationship very similar where one day I liked the guy and we got on and the next i didn't and it was awkward. After breaking up with him, I felt much much happier and we get on a lot better too.


    He probably doesn't realise its upsetting you, so if you do really like him, talk to him about it and see if you can work things out!!


    Good luck.
    First off: Don’t say ‘love.’ If you two loved each other, you wouldn’t even consider breaking up. Or at least you might, but it would cause an actual physical pain.





    Secondly, as to the advice part: If you don’t think you should be seeing any more, maybe you shouldn’t.
    maybe u need to talk to him about how u r feeling. please don't do something u might later regret, if u still love him then surely it's worth hanging onto. i remember with my ex when i felt a bit woah, and on valentines day i was in tears and likely to dump him cos i felt things wern't right but i knew that deep down i loved him and that it was just down to my personal problems (i had been depressed before i met him and when met felt so happy that it went away). i hung onto him and although he had his own personal problems and dumped me after 2.5 months it was the best time of my life and soo glad i hung onto him.





    i think at the end of the day u know deep down when it is over or when there is still hope, but before u go making decisions talk to him
    If it doesn't feel right then it's not. If he likes to be around you, and there's no question about it, then don't break up with him. He'll smile at you, whenever he sees you, he'll respect what you do and likes to spend time just hanging out. If he doesn't then he's not the right guy. Don't forget all couples have there ups and downs. Sometimes they get along fine and other not so well. It's the nature of all people, old and young.
    You're in love at 14???! Okay... well. If you know it's not gonna be going well then breakup. If your gonna get depressed if you breakup with him then don't break up with him.
