I walked up to his locker on valentines day just to say hi and walk with him to breakfast like every other day, and when I was 5 feet from his locker he looked at me, shut his locker door, and said "it's over." I walked away, and that was it. Now, I have to break up with someone :(. Of all things, it's an online relationship (an an unplanned and unintended one, at that. But things just happened, somehow). The relationship is OVER, so please don't start questioning my judgement now. Anyway, he lives in a foreign country, he's older than me (the relationship was LEGAL, though), and it just so happens that this week, he is also leaving his wife--and his daughter, consequentially. Now, I'm leaving him too. I'm breaking up because of the way he reacted to something last week, which ended up reiterating what I was afraid was the case with him all along. *it* still might not be the case, but I don't want to take any chances and I want to leave while I still can emotionally. He's moving into his new place as we speak, and will not be back online until at least monday, he said. I have NEVER broken up with someone before. I know that it's going to crush him considering that he just left his wife and daughter after 10 years and now I'm leaving him too. What the heck do I do to try and make this as peaceful as possible, while over the internet?Thanks.

Even after 7 months, he never had my phone number. It will have to be done over e-mail no matter what.

Well technically you guys, are having an online relationship, not a physical one, so it should really be classed more as a friendship, than a full blown relationship.
But if you want severe all contact with him, then just be honest, and tell him the truth, and leave it be. Their is no need to feel sorry for him even tho he is leaving his wife (if that REALLY is the truth as you just don't really know with online chats).
