How do I tell him I just can't do this anymore?

Question - (10 May 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 11 May 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, *lueatheart writes:

I was in a relationship with this guy for three years. He was my first boyfriend and I was very much in love with him. However, when I left uni, we decided to end it as I was going off travelling. He came to visit a couple of times over that summer, which in hindsight was a mistake, but at the time I was lost and saying no seemed an impossibility. It's been almost a year now. I went travelling, grew up and moved on. But he still calls or texts me everyday and wants me to go and visit in 2 weeks. I keep trying to postpone it but am running out of options. I still love him, probably always will, but can't afford to go back in time. Our lives are going in completely opposite directions. I don't want to be cruel but how do I tell him that I just can't do this anymore?

dragging it on will just keep on giving him hope. You have to sit down with him face to face and say what you feel.

good luck

Honeypie agony auntNo matter how you say it, it will hurt him a little. But dragging it out and stalling will hurt way more. Be honest.
