Is it possible to break up with someone without breaking his heart?

I asked him out. Not vice versa. We’ve dated before, but I just can’t deal with him anymore. We don’t fit, you know? But I still want to be his friend, and I don’t want to end this on a bitter note. He’s not easy to get along with as an ex, but I want to be able to talk to him after I break up with him.

  1. I think the only way is if the feelings are mutual.

  2. try to set him up with som1 he has a crush on then he not mad u not sad

  3. you can’t have your cake and eat it too…if you break it off with himhe may choose to not talk to you again and that is his choice to make.

    w-t-f..guys dont have hearts…all we care about is *** and getting head…if you gave that to him then he is satisfied and wont care if you dump him….

  5. you have to make it a clean break. no contact for say 2 months. that’ll give him time to get over you and then you can work on your friendship.

  6. NO NO NO NO………………..it depend how much he loves you……but don’t lie to him tell him the truth……

  7. Yes of course. Talk, it’s the best thing you should both do and tell him what really went wrong. If you didn’t talk and just say it’s over he’d think of other BAD reasons why you broke up with him that would end on a bitter note. Good luck. :)

  8. I don’t think it is. He’s definitely going to feel some pain. The friendship may be strained a bit, but it’s still possible to be friends.

    your happiness is the most important thing and don’t ever be in any relationship if your heart isn’t into it.He’ll be hurt but after awhile you 2 will be friends just watch and see

  10. If he is not easy to get along with as an ex than why bother being friends. Break up with him and call it a day.

    Since I’m an expert on this particular topic (for I have had my heart broken many times, and occasionally broke her heart a few times)…

    Into everyone’s life, be it male or female, a little (or a lot) of heartbreak rain must fall…
    The only way to avoid breaking his heart, is if he wants to break up, too…
    But even when both want to move on, it still tears a hole in each other’s psyche, and surprisingly hurts as if you didn’t want to break up…
    When you’re with somebody a long time, a part of them is solid inside your mind (their presence, personality, dirty socks) become a part of you…
    When it ends, you feel a cosmic emptiness (breakup pain) that is a feeling unlike any other, and it hurts like hell for a little while…
    But that’s life, aloha…
    To accept the break-up, and move-on as quickly as possible are the actions of a healthy, adult, mature, and wise brain.
    For a man, to be a man…
    You must let her go, even if you don’t want to…
    And find another to potentially break your heart again, or lift it to new heights…
    So, no…you’re going to break his heart, but he’ll get over it (hopefully), and one day that same thing will happen to you…
    Be gentle (put don’t let him make you feel guilty, just explain that you’re moving on…)
