Question Posted Monday October 9 2006, 8:23 pm

I've decided to break up with my boyfriend of 6 months and I'm absolutly sure that I want to this. I'm trying to find time with him to do it but I havent seen him since Friday and I don't know how to go about breaking up. Do I call him and ask him to come over and we'll go for a walk and then I'll do it or do I go to his neighboorhood and do it there? Once I get everything out, do I just leave? I've never formally broken up with anyone and I don't want to do it in a way that will be painful for him. Any tips? btw I'm 14/f

Additional info, added Monday October 9 2006, 8:28 pm:
The reason I'm breaking up with him is because he doesn't have much of a peronsality and doesn't treat me like I'm his girlfriend. He never calls and often chooses to hang out with his best friend (whos a girl) over me which drives me insane. He also doesn't tell me anything about his (girl) friends at his dads or anything hes done in his past and it worries me. Plus I get overly jealous when other girls talk to him and I don't feel as if we're moving in our relationship. .

Well, I'm sure no matter what way you break up with him or how nicely you put it, it's going to hurt him somewhat cause getting dumped isn't exactly the best feeling, you know?

But I would suggest doing it in person because it shows respect for the person, and you should at least have the decency to do it to his face and let him know what went wrong in the relationship ( and let him know you're not looking for a fight, you're just being honest ), and you're sorry but it's just too difficult being in a relationship and you would rather just remain friends. Because this is a big issue, and I mean phone calls and emails and IMs are good for whenever two people want to have a good conversation, but if you're going to break up with someone ; in person's the most respectful, best way.

So maybe just call him up and tell him you need to talk to him about something that's really important and if he'll meet with you somewhere where you guys can walk and talk. And then just get to the point and explain to him you're sorry, but the feelings aren't there as much anymore, and just being in a relationship is difficult with him when you two hardly get to talk and he's always spending time with his friends and everything, and ( like I said ) you'd just rather remain friends with him.

He might be a little mad at first, so just give him some time and room to cool down and then try talking to him after a couple days, and if he still isn't in the mood to talk, just let him know that if he's ever wanting to try a friendship with you, please to just ring you up sometime and talk.

I hope I helped.
