    I have been going out with a guy for about 6 months but feel things have run their course & I don't really see a long term future for us. I'm finding it really difficult to go ahead & break up though. I feel sick at the thought of it. I guess im worried il regret it. I do still have feelings for him and keep wondering should I wait a few weeks (but iv now been thinking that a few weeks!) its my first 'real' relationship & think il really miss the good aspects of our time together. I also think he'll take it quite badly, he is thinking & talking about our future so I guess thinks all Is well.
    As I said its my first relationship so iv never experienced a break up before. I thought it'd be worse to be 'dumped' but I feel pretty rotten at the moment :-(
    I know this isn't uncommon, has anyone any words of wisdom?!

    If you are this unhappy and see no future for the relationship it really is for the best that you end it now. I would suggest that you do this as soon as you can as your boyfriend is obviously heavily invested in the relationship and talking about the future.

    So it is only fair to tell him how you feel and end it as nicely as possible.

    And please do it in person... Too many threads appear about ending things on FB, by text etc.

    I echo heretochat's advice. Do it as soon as possible. One of the most hurtful things I learnt went being broken up with in the past is that they were thinking about doing it for a couple of months. Strung me along as I thought everything was rosey. So you owe it to him to do it ASAP.


    Be gentle, firm and truthful about your feelings. I would suggest also that you do it wherever he lives or as close as possible in a private setting.
