My Relationship: I Want Out!
« on: March 16, 2006, 06:05 PM »

Hi all,
I have been dating this guy for the last couple of months, but there's no love, it's just a struggle. I don't know how to tell him that I'm not interested anymore because he has said again and again to never leave him and he almost begs. He is a nice person, overall, but I just don't feel him. Help!!

love is a choice that require effort;love(feeling) is a product of love(action).discuss your differences with him before wanting out.or are you seeing another guy, just joking

No, I'm not seeing anyone else and I'm not even thinking of anyone. I just don't feel the connection at all. I'm working on it as much as I know how, but still, there's no spark, nothing.

You don't love him so what's the point? Don't hang on just because you pity him. It won't work. Be sincere and tell him the truth.

Dont lose that boy, I don't know why but i just have a good feeling about that one,  its probably not interesting now because you're not giving it any attention either - u feel it wont work and u want out. Give it a little while and be sure before u take any decisions Cool

I get so worked up over two kinds of people:
[1]Men who beg women never to leave them and [2]Women who say they want to leave a man but don't how or they are confused. Angry

Love is not a battle you fight day and night.If it not there it is not there.No need dragging it.

I am okay with working out a marriage but why do you have to burst your brains and spill your bowels working out a relationship[not marriage,mind you] that is not working and what is so hard about telling the g.u.y you want out ?
Move on if that is what you want. Tell him gently but firmly that it is not working and move on.

G.u.y.s please stop begging women to love you !! It is not manly and once a man starts doing that he loses his self worth.Such people are 'wussies'(losers,weaklings).
 If a girl says she does not want you and has made it clear she does not want you,please move on.

There are some 6.5 billion human beings on planet earth.There is certainly somebody out there for every woman and for every man.
Lets stop this trash about holding on,hanging on,begging on,very confused,suicidal traits and what have you that people cook up when a relationship goes sour.

You are a human being and you have got the power of choice in you.Use it.No body will die,I assure you.

Sorry ,I have been a bit on the harsh side here but I think it is time will learn to live our lives the way God wants and that means,we should not be held in any form of relationship bondage.

It's hard, because he hasn't done anything, I just don't feel the love anymore. If there was a reason, it would be easier to tell him that's its because of xyz, but what makes it so hard is that I don't know how to just tell him out of the blues that I want out. I know I should just tell him, the longer I stay, the harder it becomes, but the question is how do I tell him in the most easy yet least hurtful way?

You said "I just don't feel the love anymore" so since u don't feel the love anymore then is better to stop what u don't feel rather than wasting yr time on it. That is what i mean .

I get Barbz's dilemma. She knows that she wants out, and she knows the very nature of the relationship as it is. It's not that easy to just break up with him. There's probably other implications attached to the whole scenario. I don't know the answer to her problem, but her question would be to create a sort of exemplified way of how she can approach and break up with her guy. I know of a different girl who wanted to break up with her guy and when she was just planning to, she got a text from him telling her that he loved her and didn't know what to do. That presents a problem in the way it changes what she's supposed to tell him or the time she is supposed to tell him. Barbz's question is valid. How exactly would she do it?

This guy is begging now and  has done nothing, but u don't love or want him anymore, do u prefer loving that one that will not even care whether or not u exist? Is there anyone else you're after?
Relationships are very free, but u don't always get much from them, u seem to have a nice guy, if u want to end it then tell him point blank, don't even mince words or care if he'll be hurt,  Come out straight because thats the only way u can get him out of the picture - but remember, he'll hate u for this and theres that little word called 'nemesis'

Firstly, I will advice you if you haven't already to give all you have (in effort) to this relationship. If you have already but still came to this conclusion then you should discuss this with him. Don't do the immature thing by ignoring him or distancing yourself, you may think it's letting him down gently but it makes the dumpee feel like 'what have I done wrong'. The guy sounds sweet, and you gotta let him know that he will not benefit in a relationship in which the person he's with doesn't want to be with him, you can't make someone love you. If he's smart he'll understand, but if he's selfish he'll still want you to stay. Have a mature talk with him, that is my answer, and be firm,  not harsh, firm.

Good Luck

Oh yes,  tell the truth, if he asks anything, tell him the truth, don't try and use cliches or lie!

Just tell him you don't think its working. I'm afraid theres nothing you can say to make it nice. Its like asking how you can tell someone nicely that they have cancer, its not possible. You are causing more damage by lengthening the whole charade. Try and stay away from him after telling him.

What was the basis of the relationship to start with, because i thnk 2 months is too soon to want to out, because dating is a relationship of 2 different people, so with time, you get to understand the person better.
