Question - (16 September 2008) 5 Answers - (Newest, 9 October 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My boyfriend has been ignoring me constantly recently, acting like hes mad at me and being either distant, or sarcastic and patronising when we do talk. Even though i still care about him, his behaviour is making me miserable every day, i'm getting sick of it and I want to break up with him.

The thing is, i've seen how much he despises his ex who dumped him. He has anger management problems, and i'm a bit scared about breaking up with him because of how he'll take it. Also, it sounds stupid, but I really dont want him to hate me like he hates her, and go around saying nasty things about me (as i've heard him do to her)

Is there a good way to end this? i'm scared of doing it to his face, but i don't want to do it by phone or msn as he deserves more than that.

there is no easy way to break up with someone but just to say it! and mean it and move on with your life!

if your not happy with him your doing him and you a fav by saying it just do it and let it go it may hurt alot at first but times does heal all wounds, also if he has bad things to say so what! people are going to do what makes them feel better about what happen so let him have that if hes that low he would do that to you! just would make me more glad i did what i did broke up with him.

Call him and tell him that you are sick of his behaviour.

Tell him that if it continues then you don't want to be with him any more.

That way he has a choice and can either grow up and stop acting like a spoiled 2 year old, or if he doesn't then just say, "you had your chance, you obviously don't want to be with me. It's over."

Make it clear that you wanted to continue but he is not putting the effort in and had his chance.

He may hate you but it's only because you stood up to him.

I wouldn't worry about what he says to people about you. It only looks bad to girls when a guy hates his ex girlfriends. It makes you wonder how bad he must be that they won't speak to him any more.

Good Luck!! xx

i'm*a*blue*skye agony auntWow tough call.

Just get him somewhere quiet and tell him your sick of his behaviour and you want to finish with him. And dont listen to him if he says stuff like "I can change" Just walk away and hold your head high.

You've done nothing wrong

Good Luck Babe

I couldn't agree with pepper more. I was in that sort of relationship and it's not a good place to be. Meet in public, break it off gently, and avoid contact for approx a week afterward if you can - just to finalize things.

pepper27 agony auntHi hunny

It sounds as if he has major anger issues, He hates his ex for finishing with him, well she probably did it for the same reasons..I wouldnt put up with it, Next time you have contact tell him you would like to meet up make it a public place and tell him you just canot deal with his attitude and you want to break it off..Then if he gets angry at least you will be around people, If he goes around telling people things about you I really wouldnt worry as it shows how immature he is and its probably happened more than once if this is how he behaves, Like a child stamping there feet when they cant get there own way..You no you have done nothing wrong sweetheart so dont let him get you down anymore...TAKE CARE OF YOU WITH LOVE N HUGS MANDY XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
