Kindest way to break up with your girlfriend?

mcast said:
I've been avoiding all contact with my girlfriend for 3 days now hoping she will realize it's over, but the texts keep coming. I'm feeling guilty that avoidance isn't the best way to end things. The relationship is over for me but she's a nice girl and I really don't want to hurt her.

Suggestions on what to say to her? everything I can think of sounds cheesy e.g. "it's not you it's me" or "I prefer to be single". Truth is I don't find her attractive anymore, which is probably the worst thing I could say.

You'll hurt her more by not telling her when you don't want it to continue.

Grow some balls and speak to her. Simples.
 
Stop the passive aggressive nonsense (unless you're both 12 years old) and tell her that it isn't working out and that you need to move on.

If you are both 12 years old then I don't know. Maybe you could send her a text or dump her on facebook or whatever the kids are doing these days.

e : to answer the thread title, there is no easy way to do it. You will probably make her really, really upset. This is what happens when break-ups are one sided. It's kind of one of those life things that you just need to accept and take responsibility for.

Only if you do it in front of her.

For bonus points, call the pet by her Mum's name while doing it.

Seriously? There is no kind way to break up with someone. Just have the balls to do it properly. Go and see her and tell her the bad news. The least you can do is do it face to face.
 
Man the **** up, seriously. You're scared of breaking up? What do you think is going to happen? You tell her you don''t want to see her again, you don't see her again, simple really.
 
Dude youre hurting her already by avoiding. My guess is she DOES know whats happening....girls aint stupid...shes sensed a change but is probably in disbelief so she keeps texting and trying to get a hold of you.

It wont be easy and she will get hurt - but I would tell her. I was in your position once so I can sympathize. The girl I let go off kinda went off the rails and would stand outside my front door crying. It was heartbreaking for me hearing this but fortunately I spent hours and hours speaking to her and finally she went her own way. We parted amicably. Harsh..but this is life. Ive been dumped too. Heck havent we all? But what else to do? Stay in a relationship where you feel nothing and just pretend? Lol thats impossible.

Tell this gal where you stand and that you wanna go your own way. She will be devastated.... but HOW you say it is what matters. Good luck!..
 
Tell her face to face. Don't do what my ex did and refuse to talk over anything but text messages and then I found out was ******** one of the people I work with (part reason for the breakup) from like a 4th party.

Have some decency and talk to her in person.
