A male United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

Hey guys need some help here, me and my gf have been together for about 2 months but I dont know if I should stay with her. I mean I like being in a relationship but I also miss being single. There is nothing wrong with her and she is my first real girlfriend, she had problem with her ex where she was being treated badly and undone want her to be too upset. But again i sort of want to be single. Should I break up with her and if so how should I go about it ie place-way-time-school?

Thank you

if its what you want to do just take her on a walk somewhere and tell her that theres nothing wrong with her its just that you want to be single or miss being single but end it by saying we can get back together eventually if thats what you and her would want when that time comes

good luck

chigirl agony auntIf you want to break up with her, make sure you know it's what you want to do and not something you will regret later. Then figure out what it is about being single that you enjoy. I think that it is better to break it off as soon as you know you don't want the relationship, rather than stringing a person along and make them think things are ok when they aren't.

Tell her that she is great, but that you realized you do not want to be in a relationship at this point, and that you don't want to hurt her, but that you can't continue the relationship either.

If you want it to go easier, take full blame, say it's you, not her, that you'd like to stay friends (although this might not happen, it's just a comforting line), and whatever she says, just be silent and don't get upset even if she gets upset. If she cries, let her cry on your shoulder and hold her close.

Is the reason you want to be single is to grow your social circle of females.

Or do you genuinely find that a relationship is like a workload that you think your too young to handle and could do with a load off your mind.

Whatever you reason is you need to take a great deal of care when breaking up with her because girls at a young age get affected by boys and bad experiences can haunt them for the rest of thier life.

When you do, try not to ignore her calls or abandon her. this will only make her do things and go crazy.

aunt honesty agony auntWell kiddo if you want to be single well then you should be single. I guess its a part of growing up, finding yourself and experimenting with relationships. Just be honest with her and tell her that you don't want to hurt her and that you still like her but that you want to be single for the moment. Explain to her that if she still wants to be friends with her well then you can still do that and leave it at that. Just make sure when you tell her that you are both alone and preferable not at school. Good Luck.
