How should i break up with my girlfriend of 6 months?

I'm just not in love or have passion for the relationship anymore. I care about her but not in the same ways i used to. I feel horrible for wanting to break up with her because i know it will crush her and break her heart. But im going away to college is 3 weeks and i dont see this working as a relationship but maybe a friendship with a possibility of getting back together once i get through a couple weeks of school. Any advice or help would be great. I just feel so bad for doing.How should i break up with my girlfriend of 6 months?
Just tell her you want to move onHow should i break up with my girlfriend of 6 months?
Sometimes it's cruel to be kind, but if you are absolutely sure you're finished with this relationship, it's best to cut it now instead of dragging it out to a miserable conclusion.





Think about this, though: College is a big step and a big change for both of you. The biggest mistake most college-bound kids make is trying to cling to a relationship ';just the way it is'; and not giving it room to grow or change. There's no reason why you can't still be friends with your girlfriend. Don't be so anxious to ';define'; your relationship in narrow terms or to put a label on it.





However, if you are going to be away at college, it's not fair or realistic to either one of you to be ';loyal'; and ';faithful';. This is the time of your lives that you will be meeting new people and truly on your way to defining what you want out of life and what kind of person you want to be. It's not disloyal to want to meet new people -- you are both young and have a lot of growing left to do in terms of relationships and maturity.





But in direct answer to your question: I think your idea of breaking up and ';possibly getting back together once you get thorugh a couple of weeks of school'; is a truly terrible idea. It's very convenient for you, but it's extremely hard on your girlfriend. You want to test the waters, see what's out there -- but you want a safety net, ';just in case'; you don't find anything better in the first couple of weeks. Not fair, guy!





I think you need to sit down and have a heart-to-heart with Girlfriend. Tell her that you care for her and still want her to be an important part of your life, but that since you will be away at college, you think it would be best if you both used this time to get to know others, too. You can still write, text, email, etc., and stay in touch, and even see each other when you are in town -- but otherwise, you should both be free to go out with other people without feeling ';unfaithful'; or that you are ';cheating';, somehow. Her maturity will be tested here, too -- if her idea of a boyfriend (or your idea of a girlfriend) is a 365/24/7 devout slave, then this might not work . . . :-)





Change is necessary to relationships, if they are to survive. It's a simple application of evolutionary theory: That which does not change to adapt becomes extinct.
Be mature and be a man about it. The sooner the better. You don't want to keep wasting her time or yours. The hardest and most mature way is in person. If it's not meant to be, that's alright. She will find someone else eventually.

Start being an asshole and not spending time with her. Then she'll break up with you and you will have a clear conscience.
Take her on a date to the landfill and dump her there.
You already know that its not going to work so just tell her the truth. If you want to take the easy way out you could always print out this email with responses from everyone telling you that its the right thing to do.
First off! You need to be honest with her. Tell her, that since your going away too College, that this would be a great time to take a break. You'd like to keep in touch with her and still hang out as friends when you can. That going away too College is the perfect time to see how you truly feel about each other. That time away makes, the heart grow fonder.
if ure not feeling it, then its time to give it a break and see what happens. In college ure going to meet loads of people and really, u might find LOTS of people that u get along better with- and therefore have a tighter knit of friends. Through that you're going to find lots of other girls that u just might want to give it a go with. You never know, u might grow into someone different with different needs, and those needs will lead u towards someone that u ARE passionate about. College is the kind of place that comes around at that time of ure life when ure still creating ure identity. I know i changed ALOT when i went to college, and from that i was able to tailor what i needed in a partner and really understand what i want. Just finding someone that fulfills that is sometimes enough to make u fall head over heels.





If you really want to keep ure current gf around, just tell her u need some time to see if u can handle a gf and going to school at the same time. Tell her things are going to be different and u need to be free to adjust, grow, and experience so that u can be a college guy. Give it a few weeks, to a month and see how things play out.





gluck!
Get over yourself and let the girl go. Give the respect she deserves. You will feel bad but you already feel bad. Do it with grace and be straight forward and do not give her hope by saying after you settle in maybe you can get back together. She deserves to be able to move forward after you are gone. Seriously, time and distance really heals wounds of the heart. The fact that you are leaving will make the break easier for both of you. And please do not call her while you are gone. There's no reason for you to stay in something because you are scared to break up due to the uncomfortable conversation you have to deliver. Suck it up and deliver the message already.
There really isnt a best way to break up with someone. Just please do it in person! Try to be as gentle as possible. If you dont love her anymore then it's for the best to let her go, it may feel bad now but it's best for the future. Good luck!
Be strong, respectful, and do it in person. It sounds like you know exactly why you want to break up, just expound on what you have already said here.
I think you are doing the right thing. That happend to me when i was 16 only, i was the one being broken up with. Then it seemed terrible, alot of mixed feelings about the guy. Sometimes i hated him, sometimes i felt that there was hope for getting back together. It especially hurt because he was my first love. But dont worry, you are right in a sense. I didnt realise it untill it was my turn to say ';we need a break';. You are going to miss her, you are going to feel sad and all that - but if you are really unsure about the descision, then simply sit down, relax, and think. It helps to talk to someone also.
well if your might consider getting back together with her..then just tell her that you need some time apart..and if you still feel the same way after college just tell her that you are sorry..but the feelings arent there anymore
tell her all that u just told us it will hurt but it least ur not lying to break up w/ her. she'll respect u more. and maybe not be so haertbroken
