I don't feel the same about my boyfriend anymore. Ever since I realised that he is not someone that I would consider marrying I just haven't felt the same. Whenever we talk he just ends up annoying me, so I've become more distant, which has caused him to be come more clingy, which pushes me further away. All the things that weren't an issue before, feel like an issue for me now. I like my space, I like going out and getting drunk with friends, I have lots of male friends including an ex, all of these things seem to have become an issue and I'm not prepared to compromise. Basically I'm not happy with the relationship anymore.

We go to uni together but haven't seen each other all summer as I've been busy. I want to break up with him but I don't know how to end it. Do I end it by phone? Or do I wait a month and end it when I see him? How is the kindest way to end a relationship?

Don't do it by phone...Do it face to face. :/

I know it's hard...but you really should....Do it by the method you use to communicate the most.

And if this is love
Please don't break me
I'm giving up
So just catch me...

just end it by phone, it sucks but what choice do you have, that's a month of your prime dating time in youth.

I think you should just be honest with him about it. You know in your heart that both of you won't work out, so in a way breaking up with him is doing him a favor. Both of you deserve mutual love.

That was actually quite useful. The only problem with face to face is that we live fairly far away from each other. If I were to go and visit him, I would have to stay over night at his parents house, which wouldn't be ideal if we had just broken up.

I don't think he'd ever forgive me if I did it online. I have to see him again as we go to the same uni and a load of my stuff is in his flat, which i need to get back at the start of next term.

Hm...maybe you should just wait till Uni? Idk. This is a touch one...maybe ask your mom for advice? she'd know your situation better than I would...I assume.

Yeah, I spoke to my mum. I think she's a bit unsure about how I should handle the situation as well. She just feels sad for the guy because he is incredibly sweet and has been incredibly committed to me. I think she also thinks that I might not be making the best decision as she thinks that he would be good 'marriage material'.

He may be good marriage material, but if you're not happy with him, why bother?
Why go through with marriage and be miserable?

If you do love him, then try telling him how you feel about the relationship.
If you don't...I think it's best to walk away.

Okay.
Then you should do it.

Just find the best way.
So far, we've ruled out face-to-face, and online.

Perhaps over the phone is best.
