Question Posted Thursday May 22 2008, 6:13 am

How do you break up with a guy without hurting his feelings? But without telling him the truth, he is bigger and i'm not physically attracted to that? We were friends before we started dating and i want to go back to being friends? Thanks!

16/f

Be honest with him.

Lying to him isnt going to do him any good. If you cant be attracted to him, as much as its going to hurt you, he deserves to know that. Because hes not going to change anything about himself that might need to be changed if you don't show him that the world is shallow and judgemental and that that affects things in his life.

The truth sucks, and yes, it will make him more cynical. But at least armed with the knowledge he might make a change that will make his life easier.
