I feel like my 3 year relationship with my boyfriend has ran its course. On my end, at least.
On the surface, there's nothing obviously wrong with us -- we still get along really well, and the sex is amazing.
Despite all of that, now I'm at University (he is too, but at a different one) I'm starting to occasionally look at other guys, and to be honest at this stage of my life -- despite everything above -- I really don't want any commitments. That doesn't mean I'm itching to go sleeping around, however. Far from it.
So I've decided that now's the time to end our relationship.
Even though I know it needs to be done, I can't actually bring myself to do it. I still love him, and it'll kill him -- and as a consequence, me -- when I tell him we're over. A few weeks ago, I mentioned the fact that we don't really seem as compatible as we used to -- not intending to dump him, just trying to be open -- and he took it as a sign that I was dumping him, and almost completely broke down. I can't bear to see him like that but even worse.
I'm in a mess. I really do love him, and I'm terrified of hurting him. How can I let him down in the gentlest possible way? Also, because his University is ~150 miles away, I'll have to get the train down to go and see him. What's the best way of letting him know I'm coming for a "surprise visit" without completely giving it away?
Put the internet to work for you.
