I was in a relationship for 4 years and last year decided to end the relationship. We have remained close friends and there is no bad blood or awkwardness. This is how I broke up with him and how we remained friends.

I broke up with 'Roger' (Name changed) face to face. This is the only way to do it to ever have a civil future. I was straight to the point yet sensitive. This is the script you should follow.

"Roger. I love you more than anything and anybody in the entire universe. Your smile is as wide as the Grand Canyon, your laugh as cute as a thousand puppies, your fists as strong as a hammer to the face. We are one, our hearts connected, our bank accounts joint and our phone passcodes the same. Yes I may have put a bit of weight on, I may like 'Nathans' pictures a little too often, and by often i mean once on the 12th December 2013 but you'll know this, and yes perhaps I do show off in front of people but most of all I am happy and willing to change. I think it's time we take the next step in our relationship [going down on one knee optional]. We are finished and are now just friends [leave room]".

Well, I dated a guy for 2 to 3 years and let me tell you, it hurt but I got over it. The key to breaking up with someone is that you gotta be poilte but do it quick so it isn't awkward. If your just standing there saying "Ummm..Ummm", you'll never get to the point and he's gonna know.

So, don't over think it and just be nice, but firm.

If you are in middle school you can say you aren't ready to be in a relationship and say that you can still be friends. But do not, and I mean DO NOT!!!! Go and flirt with someone else, or you have lied to them and they will feel more betrayed that they ever have in their lifes.

I think you answered it yourself. Just tell him that you don't want to be boyfinnd and girlfrind anymore, but you would like to be friends. Depending on the boy, he may or may not like this. I found that younger guys don't care for this too much. I know when I was 18 or 23 I really didn't care to be friends after dating. By the why, I am 50 now. If this does work for you and your friend, just remember your new boy freind may not like you talking to your old boy friend. And the same for your boy friend, his new girl friend might not like him talking to you. The jealous factor. This is a very difficult thing to do. On the brighter side, this can work, I know for a fact. I was married for 9 years to my 1st wife and we are stil freinds today even after 12 years. We even work at the same place as well. My wife is stil friends with her ex husband also. Good luck to you and I hope that every things works out for you.

You be honest with him and tell him why its just not working for you anymore and express your desire to want to remain friends. If he rejects the idea then he's just not mature enough to handle it and let it go.

You just broke up with him so give him some time to get over this and gradually as you may talk in the future if he wants to be your friend you will be able to develop a friendship however, at this time saying that would just sounds like empty words or an easy let down. If you find he does not want to talk to you eventually just leave things alone and let him be - it would be obvious he is not interested in having a friendship with you.

Simple and direct: "I HAVE DECIDED that I want us to be just friends."

No more. Say just that, and let him talk next.

Be nice and listen to what he has to say, but don't pretend that you might change your mind. Let him know you understand how he feels, but that your mind is made up. It's your decision, and he has to accept it.

He may not feel like being friends afterwards -- That's his decision, you be ready to accept that.

Honestly you don't... im just going to speak from my experiences. I mean yes eventually you can try thee let's just be friends thing. But when the break-up is fresh, and one of the people or both feel the hurt or loss of the broken relationship it causes nothing but more pain to try and act like you are okay when you're really just not. That also takes away from you as an individual having to ACT a certain when you are anything but that. Give the other person time. I'm not saying just go away and act like you never knew them, but it's best to not try and hit the next house party together and be the other's wing man immediately. If you are able to do this by all mean sav it out! i know me tho! I have to hide for a while from YOU!

  • It seems this new generation has an urge to be friends with their exes. If you are breaking up with your ex then breaking up means you are no longer a couple and you should move on in your life. This does not mean that you can't be pleasant to each other if you should bump into one another.

The easiest way is plain and simple don't givve false hope Instead of saying "i think we can keep it going you just have to change and we'll get back on track,maybe" say ''we had fun but its over and its never gonna happen again." simple!

Another answer

Be completely honest to him. First tell him you are breaking up with him and then tell him why. Don't try to avoid doing it or go about breaking up with him any other way. And if you really care for him don't tell him over text or anything, tell him to his face.
