How should I politely break up with a guy I just can’t get into?

[Anonymous]

One of my friends asked me out, and i said yes because i felt really bad about saying no. He’s very kind and overall just a really good person. I didn’t even have a good reason to reject him. Objectively he’s not bad looking, I’m just not attracted to him at all. He also has a nice personality but not really the type I’d want to date. All of our friends know that we’re together and i don’t want to cause any drama.

I say don’t be with someone you don’t exactly like. It’s quite hurtful to stick out the situation knowing that he won’t ever get a fair chance at love because he’s with someone that isn’t attracted to him

Yea you’re right. I just don’t know how to say it the right way.

[kylee2437]

Just say it exactly how you feel.

[Asker]

So tell him that I’ve been pretending to like him all along? Then he’s gonna get major trust issues and probably be really upset with me

[kylee2437]

He has a right to feel how he feels, just as much as you do. Regardless of how you tell him, he’s not obligated to stay cordial with you either.

[Asker]

Yea. I won’t even see him in person for some time so maybe it’s the right time to break up soon

[kylee2437]

Do it now. The longer you wait, the harder it’s going to be

You should have been honest from the beginning. I believe you should be honest about your lack of feelings towards him but since you haven't been honest from the beginning there are chances you'll be seen as the bad guy.

[Asker]

I know. I just felt so bad about rejecting him. He’s really been there for me.

[sheikalana]

Well, it's life. He'll be fine.

Just straight forward talk with him with confidence.

[Asker]

I really don’t want to hurt his feelings though. I’ve told him I love him and stuff.

[MasterKS]

@asker being honest is always best, it hurt a bit but later it's worthy.

[Asker]

True. I just don’t know the nicest way to say it to him.

[MasterKS]

just say what you feel honestly.

[Asker]

Should I say I haven’t felt the same all along or should I just say it’s not working out for me?

[MasterKS]

@asker follow me so better we discuss there and i can help you.

[MasterKS]

@asker Thank you for MHO!
