I don't know if this qualifies as 'Tell him the truth', but...

Why do you want to break up with him? Think about that, and be honest with yourself. You have an obligation to YOURSELF to be happy as long as you're being honest about it. If that means you need to be apart from him, there's no crime there. Do you just not feel the same way about him? Is there a guy that you'd like to try and see casually? Ask yourself these questions, and yes. Be honest. If you and your friend really DO go back, he should understand. He may not like it, and you two may have to stay away from one another for a bit, but the friendship should be strong enough to handle it.

Good luck,
Ecx

i know exactly what you mean about not wanting him to ate you the same thing happened to me. i know this isnt what you want to hear, but you have to kinda tell him the truth, or part of the truth. bt if not you can alwyas go with... "i dont realy think this is working out, i htought we were better as friends and i just wanna go back to the way things were" or something like that. goodluck!

Dear confused4life,
I had to go through the same situation. Friendships are precious things and sometimes the fear that relationships will ruin them pressure people into making bad decisians. Tell him you value him as a friend and that he's like a brother to you. Tell him that you liked it when the two of you could hang out without you worrying how your hair looks or what you're wearing. Tell him you know he deserves better (even though that's probobly not true because I'm sure you're great). Guys like it when girls like us tell them they mean alot to us even if we're dumping them. Play it cool and tell him this was the hardest decisian you've ever made but it had to be done. If you ever need any other advice, feel free to ask me a question directly at my column. &hearts; iCY iS ALWAYS LiSTENiNG &hearts;

tell him you really love him. .but just arent ready for a relationship.. but sometime in the future you wil lbe really great together.. but you just have to sort yourself out first...

although it is better to tell the truth.. but meh.. oh and he will hate you more if you lied to him and he found out but you dont want to tell the truth so try the above :)

Hope this helps :)

Just tell him that you really liked being single, and that you guys were closer before you went out and that you would just like to be friends again.

tomwellingmysuperman answered Tuesday January 4 2005, 10:11 pm:
I would tell him the truth. Just say, "you know, don't think this is working anymore. I just don't feel the same way I used to feel. I don't want to lose you as a friend, because you are awesome, but i don't want to date you anymore." Or even say, like "i know this sounds corny, but can we just be friends, i like you a lot, but not in that way anymore" hopefully you make the transition successfully lyl chloe

okay a way to say it where he wont hate you would probably be to say " im sorry it cant work between us" " can we just be friends?"
