It's not easy, but it's probably the best way. Just think how you would feel if someone broke up with you over the phone or in a text message! But then, every relationship is different, and you know him better than anyone who is going to give advice, so you may just need to think about what would be the best way for yall.
good luck!

Yes, it's more mature to do it face to face. Don't do it over text, email, AIM, note or through a friend. That's such a pathetic (not to mention childish) way to handle it.

well from a boys point of view i really think that you should do a face to face confrentation, from a note, have a friend do it, or AIM/email. doing it over the phone or texting is a really bad way to break up with somebody unless you dont want to still be friends cause he probably wont like you very much from a text or phone break up. face to face is the best way and you need to just tell him the truth about why your breaking up with him. hope i helped and good luck

Do it face to face if ya'll aren't shy, or you could do it over the phone, write him a note, or get a friend to do it. Once, I did it in person and he sighed and was like "ahh..okay.." and i was like "i'm really sorry.. but i have to get to class now.. i'll talk to you later" and that worked out pretty good. And then a few months ago, I had gone out with a guy then in class, we sat together, but we couldn't talk (strict teacher) so I wrote it in a note "i'm sorry but i think we should just be friends" and he wrote back saying "okay" and then one of my boyfriends broke up with me over the phone, and we still talked afterwards. so anyway you do it, it will be fine. good luck.

It just depends on how long you've been going out. Say, if you have been going out for a month or longer, you owe it to him to break up with him face to face. Just tell him that the relationship isn't working for you and you think you should be single for a while to figure out what you want before you start dating again.
Now, if you've only been going out a couple of weeks, a phone call will do and you can just say the same thing.

Hope this helps!

yes i think its nessisary to do it face to face. over the phone or online is just plain mean. you need to see how he reacts and explain it to him. unless hes done some pretty bad things to you, you should try to make it as painless as possible. dont be scared, just tell him how u feel. he will understand...
