Well.. why do you want to end it anyways? but if its an internet boyfriend then its not real... well just tell him simply you feel as if it isnt working out so well and its hard to go out with someone you can never see or barely talk to.. you wanna be able to be hugged.. and stuff like that.. but he cant do that-trix

Well...if its your "internet boyfriend" im guessing that u dont really no him or dont really see him that often....so just break up w/ him easily and tell him that u hardly get to see each other but you really like him..even if u dont

Be as harsh as you want.

He's on the internet.

Not like he's gonna matter in a year.

He can't come and murder you, and you'll never have to make eye contact.

tell him that it isn't workin, and you'd rather date sum1 that lived a bit closer

goodness child for all u kno, he's sum 30yr old pervert, or sum 70 yr old queer

i don't really believe in internet relations, u never kno wut could happen

u could tell him the truth
or u could say u have found sum1 that u kinda lyke around where u live!!

Hope it all works out for you :-)

Just tell him that you would rather have a real relationship and that the whole online thing isn't what you're looking for. There's no way you can actually do it without hurting feelings, but it's only the internet!:-) .. good lUCk!
Love much, Shannon

BlueEyedBlondie725 answered Saturday July 24 2004, 4:24 pm:
Just break it to him gently. And just be like "I'm really sorry, I'm not trying to hurt you or anything, but I don't think this whole internet boyfriend/girlfriend relationship is working out, I mean don't get me wrong, but we're never meet each other..." Just say something like that, he should understand. Just try to be nice about it. Hope this helps! Good luck!

xoxo Kourtney

flirterchicky answered Saturday July 24 2004, 3:56 pm:
hun, you gotta know what you want first.. let him know that you*re thinking of breaking it off and tell him why.. maybe he can relate to you because you both know you*ll never see each other, right? you might hurt his feelings a lil but he*ll def. get over it...just throw the idea out there that its not working 2 great, and if hes smart, he*ll agree with you so he doesnt have 2 be the loser of the two.. that way, maybe he*ll see if as a mutual decision and realize the best way 4 ur relationship 2 go on is as fRieNdZ! let me know how it works out!
