Question Posted Wednesday October 3 2007, 10:25 pm

here's what you need to know:
i've been with this girl for about 6 months now and we've had a great run, full of it's ups and downs. the problem is that she lives really far from me, we see each other every 2 or 3 weeks, and we argue a lot.
i met this new girl,she lives a couple blocks away, goes to school somewhat near to me, friends say she's into me, and i'm into her to.

how do i let go of my gf if in a solid yet gentle way? i know it's gnna hurt her, but how can i soften the blow?

p.s. my gf really really really really really really likes me, so its guna b hard!

Ah .. well the best thing to do is be staight up with her in a nice way. Tell her you guys don't see each other as much as you would like and fight too much. Yes of corse she will be upset, its just how girls are. But sooner or later she will understand and be able to move on just like you did. Good Luck with the new girl ♥

Do it in person. That shows respect.

Tell her that the distance is something you cant handle. Tell her that you think shes a wonderful person, but that you cant be in a relationship with someone that only gets to be a wonderful person with you one or two days of every month or so.

Tell her that you're stressed out, and that its really hard to have a relationship with someone who you cant just go see when you need to be with her. Tell her that you're sorry, and that you will leave it up to her if you still want to be friends after this.

Be strong, be firm, and be unwavering. The WORST thing you can do to her is go in there and tell her this and then let her talk you out of it. Tell her that the decision is already made, you had to make it for your own sake.

Well if you can, see your girlfriend in person. The less public the better. Make sure to do it at the right time like if any special occasions or holidays might not be the best.

Keep your emotions in check. Don't seem too happy about the breakup, you'll come off as mean-spirited. Just be kind, caring, and considerate.

Yeah everybody hates being dumped and its gonna be hard but just kind and considerate and it would be a hard relationship if she lives farther away. You may want to tell her over email, phone and such because it is easier and you don't have to look them in the eye. It will be hard but its life, lots of things are hard. If she is an emotional girl who might cry or something, let her cry, scream or whatever she might do. But you both can be friends. I hope everything works out for you.

There is no easy way. There is no gentle way to do it. Of course you don't want to be rude, because that isn't right, but there is no nice way to break up.
Just tell her you have grown apart and it isn't fair to either one of you to continue with this relationship. If she says you haven't grown apart, then remind her how much you fight. Then say "Goodbye."
It is still going to hurt her, but saying it isn't fair to continue is an honest statement. Correct?
