What shall I say to make the break-up less harsh?

Question - (12 July 2013) 2 Answers - (Newest, 13 July 2013)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I don't like my boyfriend anymore.?

He never compliments me or says I look attractive/beautiful or tells me how he feels about me, he makes me feel fat because he flirts with other girls.

He doesn't want a sexual relationship yet which makes me think he doesn't find me attractive.

He doesn't ask me about my day, he's selfish, he's too skinny and I don't like his face or body. He never contacts me first, he's a terrible kisser and not affectionate enough, he doesn't like PDA, whenever we kiss he slobbers all over me, he cancels plans sometimes and I keep comparing him to my ex.

I also miss being single.

I want to break up with him but these reasons are harsh and I don't want to use them when breaking up with him. What shall I say to make the break-up less harsh?

Honeypie agony auntYou don't really love him, so let him down easy. And don't drag it out.

Tell him you just don't feel like it's working out between you to. Don't need to go into a details.

YouWish agony auntYou sound like a very truthful person, and I commend you on that. Just talk to him in person, tell him that you want to break up because the feelings aren't there for you as time went on, and that you want to go in another direction. It's to the point, diplomatic, and the truth.

Whatever you do, don't give into the "let's be friends" or the "I'll call you sometime" thing to try and make both of yu feel better. Don't draw it out either. He may press you, and just tell him that you're sorry, but there's no hard feelings, but it's over.

I don't know how persistent he'll be. From what you've said, he doesn't act into you either. Just tell him that you don't have feelings for him.
