You probably tried everything, but you just couldn’t say no to him. It’s okay to feel a bit lost and to question all your choices in this relationship– we are here to help you make him realize you are not the one for him without being cruel.
Whether you’ve been always the one who got away or you never knew how to say goodbye, stepping out of a new relationship is never easy.
If he stopped listening to you and wouldn’t even like to hear about the thought of breaking up, it’s time to show him all the reasons you two don’t belong together.
Don’t be childish
It’s okay to be bad at breaking up, but it’s not okay to make him feel horrible with little tricks to make him hate you and force him into a breakup. How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days is fun, but unfortunately, it won’t work like that in real life.
Every relationship is extremely person and it’s absolutely understandable if you’ve come to the decision to make him realize you are not the right fit for him, but there is no reason to get cruel and mean. You are better than that.
Share your motivations and dreams
Are you two very different? That’s perfect. Talk about yourself more – share all your dreams, motivation, career prospects, which will make him see why are you very different and why this relationship wouldn’t work.
This way, you will not only become more honest with him (instead of making him suffer by doing little tricks), but you can also make him support the thought of breaking up.
Don’t be afraid to let him know that at this point in life, you need time for yourself/to figure things out/simply would like to be alone a bit more.
Cut down on your enthusiasm
From a personal point of view, I’ve been always the most enthusiastic person, even if we were only going on a few dates, but if you would like to step out of a relationship, the biggest and most visible sign of him will be cutting down on your enthusiasm.
That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t care at all but slowly show him that you don’t believe in you two anymore.
Not replying as fast and taking time for yourself will make him realize that you are serious about your own motivations.
Although you don’t have to make him suffer by randomly disappearing, this will sure question his enthusiasm as well.
Prioritize
And let him know your priorities. If you’ve come to the decision because you feel like you’re at a different place in life and have way more important things at the moment, he should see and know that.
University, a new job, your family, or even yourself…there are endless things you can focus on and would probably prefer to focus on at this point. If he gets mad about it, calmly explain that at the moment, these things are simply more important than a movie night together.
Accept the fact
Even if you were 100% sure when you were thinking about you two going in your own ways, it might hurt terribly once it’s actually over.
Our recommendation is to think about the upcoming breakup and start preparing for it mentally, because once you are after the breakup, things will definitely change.
Overall: Be more honest!
All these steps are related to being more honest, both with him and yourself. For all this time, you might have thought this could actually work, but once you realize that it’s going in the wrong way, you can easily get frustrated and desperate to end it as quickly as possible.
It’s super important to stay honest, because once he decides to end this relationship, you won’t feel bad about your behavior or decision.
Go on adventures…alone
Spend time with your friends, explore a new sport or try out that hobby you always wanted to but never had time for it.
All these little details will make him see that you are getting well on your own (even better) without him, and it will be good for you as well.
You can encourage him to try the same things as well – although he can’t take that ballet class with you, but why shouldn’t he try something new as well?
Will this work?
To end shorter relationships, this method can 100% work if done in the right way, but if you are trying out get out of an engagement or from a long term relationship, generally happy relationship, you might want to choose honesty and sit down to discuss things instead of showing small signs.
If he is not listening…
…if he simply refuses to any argument or basically anything you say, you will have to show him your feelings with actions and play his game.
Be a bit more selfish, withrequest more time alone, don’t be too ktohim if you don’t agree on something.
