How do I break up with my "back-up" boyfriend?

Question - (27 October 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 27 October 2009)
A female age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I wanted to break up with him because there was so much I didn't know about him - we met on the internet and you know, people don't really like posting personal information about themselves. So yeah, I got prepared and got a "back-up" boyfriend just in case I really did break up with him. It was hard 'cause I kept seeing him. So I ended up with two guys in the end but I really don't want to be with the "back up" boyfriend. I don't want to hurt him and say I don't want him...

tell me what I should do.

A male reader, CaringGuy United Kingdom +, writes (27 October 2009):

You've just got to be very brave and say it. Meet with him, be very calm and be very sure of yourself and say that it's over. No doubt he will be hurt, but if you do it as calmly as possible, then stop contact, it will allow him time to move on. There is never an easy way to do split from someone, but you can at least do it in person and make sure it's done calmly and quickly. Good luck.
