 You really do need to tell him that you are leaving, there is no easy way as what you have to say will surely break his heart, but you must do it and soon as what you are doing with this new bloke is wrong while you are still with your partner.
I agree with Martini you must tell him that you are leaving him for someone else as if he finds out he will be even more devistated, best to give him all the bad news at once.
I really do hope you find happiness with this new bloke and that he does turn out to be everything your current partner is not, I am a firm believer that sometimes the grass looks greener but when you get into the new feild you realise it is just the same old dried up grass just in a different location.
Once you have broken up and disrupted your sons life there really is no going back so make sure this move is the right one and it is for keeps.

 do not stay with someone for the sake of a child under any circumstances! QWhether you two are a couple or not, he will always be the father of your children! Be happy in life and go for it! You only live once!

 I would very carefully consider the implications of this move, including if you have really thought about this and if it is the best idea for you and your family.
The only way is honesty and tell your partner. But please do it calmly and compassionately. Your boyfriend will hurt a lot so you need to do it in the kindest way but please think about it very carefully. It is a big decision and you have to be sure it really is the way to go.
Whatever you do, please don't cheat - your poor boyfriend deserves not to go through that as well.
Good luck
