Q: Hey DG,
I have been dating my girlfriend for 4 months and I think it is time to break it off. This is my first long relationship and I do not know how to let her know. She is a great girl and I do not want to hurt her feelings, but I can't be in this relationship any longer. How do I let her know without any unneeded pain? I feel like I can't just come out and surprise her with it. Please help.
A: You have to be totally honest. It’ll suck at first, but she’ll respect you much more in the end. You can’t string her along. You can’t pretend and you can’t waste her time. Those are the things she’ll end up blaming you for.
Rip the band aid off – in a very sweet way! Really, tell her you’ve started thinking about it and she’s amazing but it’s just not working for you anymore. If you can give real examples, it’ll help but just be honest and nice and everything will turn out ok.
Hope that helps.
Good Luck
Love the Madness,
DG
