I say you just sit him downand explain to him all the things this other guy treats you better ans tell him that you deserve to be happy as well does he. you have a good run but you've come to the end of the road and you think it's time you go your seperate ways

growing agony auntSo you are ready to spend your whole life with him becos he left his place to be with you.rite???I hope you are aware about divorces??what is the reason that after spending some of the great moments together,crucial years of life ; comromising on 1000's of things,bringing children to make their bond stronger,they still call off their relationship???what leads to extra marital affair??its when you don't feel adequate with your partner and you go out to complete your inadequacy.You want to go through all this and then leave him.common sweetie,you don't feel for him .here its not that you had some 1 nitestand and now you are seeking solution.you are clear that you feel for sum1 else, then why leave him after giving him hopes and cheating him for months?why you want to give further pain.more you delay more he will suffer.

growing agony auntIt doesn't matter if it was for 2 yrs or 10 yrs.Now you no more feel for him.so the least painful way for him to know this, is you telling him directly.Just be straight and no need to beat around the bush.when break up occurs,one has to go through pain and you can't avoid that.bcos you are already going around with sum1.so now he is the one who has to bear after effects.Now if you want to do sumthing good for him then it is just to let him know as soon as possible.Don't be guilty about anything bcos its your heart that is involved in love relationships and now its not beating for him so you can't do anythng with that.

but yes as a human and his wud be ex,make sure that you are involving his friend in this .so that they can take care of him and he doesn't get aloof.

this is what all you can do and don't show that he still has a chance after you are over with your new guy as this will just make things terrible later on.

may luck smiles on you!!

eyeswideopen agony auntBe kind but firm, pick a quiet place, and tell the truth. Try to spare his feelings as much as you can but don't encourage any false hopes on his part. Don't draw it out, off like a bandaid.
