You should talk to him. Discuss the reasons you are so bored. Maybe you can figure something out, maybe not. But talking is the best thing you can do. Breaking up is never easy, it always hurts. Couples are always different from each other. They always want different things. Dating isn't easy, nobody ever said it was. You have to talk to each other and work your way through the differences.

there is no smooth way to break up. you just have to let him know what's up, and why you feel it's time to split. and just hope that time will heal whatever damage is done.

i wish there was magic way to make breakups go smoothly, but there isnt.

smeedle agony auntOnly advice I can give is to do it as soon as possible, to linger once you have made up your mind is cruel and un-necessary, this will hurt him more in the long run.

Just tell him, brutal as it sounds it is the only way, you have grown apart, it happens, it is time for you to move on to new challenges.

Breaking up will always hurt and there is no easy painless way.
