Whats the nicest way to break up with someone when everythings great, except you know it'll never work, you just never felt that connection?

And of course without lieing to the person, because youve been with them a while and really do care about them.....im hoping for responses other than to just tell them the truth that you just arent feeling it. She had a really bad result with that in the past, although ive told her not to count it out just because of one bad experieince. I know it really is the best way to go.

I have no advice except for honesty tempered with tact and delicacy. Lies will come back to bite you in the ass and it's not fair to give him some false reason that he will carry around with him as the reason for failure, perhaps taking steps to change something about himself that doesn't need to be changed.

Exactly what OG said...sit him down and tell him the truth. Things will start to feel wrong to him eventually if the relationship continues. He'll respect her in the end for being honest. I'd like to offer more advice than that...just communication is the best way to go...paired with complete honesty!

Coming from a guys point of view, honesty is the best way. Granted it is never good for your SO to break up with you, but I would definetly want them to be honest with me. The whole thing of I just don't feel the connection always has kind of sounded bogus to me but hey if that is how you feel just tell him. He isn't going to like it but it is better to do it now.

Not an easy task by any means there is no gentle delicate way. Just tell him I don't see any future for us and I want to see other people. Whatever you do don't throw out the "but we can still be friends".... If that is even possible. He is going to need some time. Then do not call him,do not get drunk and say you miss him and still love him. That will just bring it all back and mess with his head. If you want to end it, do it and move on. Hopefully he can too. I think we have all been on both sides and neither is much fun. Good luck

Asking the nicest way to break up with someone is like asking whats the nicest way to kick someone in the nutz. It's gonna hurt, so the quicker the better.

eh... not really quicker the better.

Like everyone says.. be honest. If you know it won't work now.. don't wait a month later then say it. Just say why and how you feel, and sometiems (rarely) you'll stay friends with them later on.

ALways break up and stay on good terms. You never know when an old fling can be a booty call later down the road when your single again.

Honesty is key. But also, don't make the guy feel like he's at fault or that he's done something wrong.

I had a girl dump me once, but she used such an interesting style, that it didn't hurt nearly as much.

She said the problem wasn't me . . . that it was her. And she listed the reasons--none of which related directly to me or my personality. By the time she was finished, I really wondered why we were together. It made a ton of sense. And in the end, she was right. We stayed friends.

Hope this helps..............

wow lefty, that helps a lot....ill just tell her to think of truthful reasons why they dont belong together....that way she doesnt have to lie and can still be nice about the whole situation
