A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

so I'm going out with this boy and he's hurt me in the past, so I'm going to break up with him, but at the same time I'm going out with this other guy on accident. so how do I tell the first guy I want to break up with him without hurting him since he knows that the other guy asked me to be with him. but if I break up with him he'll know that I'm going for the other guy. is there a way to make any other excuses to break up with him so he doesn't know I'll be with the other guy?

You're going out with this other guy "on accident?"

No - you're going out with him "on purpose." Take some responsibility for your actions.

TimmD agony auntEven if there was a way to break up without him knowing, what's to stop him from finding out later down the line? Are you going to date this new guy in secret?

When you break up with him, just make it about you and him... even if he brings the other guy up, tell him you're just not happy in your relationship with him. It's over, you don't love him.

Break ups are difficult. There's usually no easy way to do it. People get angry, and hurt. Such is the nature of a breakup. Just do it and get it over with.
