I’ve been in a bit of a rut. I really like this guy, and he really likes me back. But after getting to know him after a while, I’ve realized we’re not really meant for each other. He’s really sweet and kind, but he has a bad habit of getting into a lot of trouble. He started smoking while we were together, and I really don’t like it. Kissing him isn’t the same anymore. It always tastes like an ash tray. And he’s just so different from the first time I met him. It’s almost like I’m dating a different person now.
So what I need are tips on how to break up with someone like that. I need advice on how to make it go smoothly and without too much heartbreak. I don’t want to hurt him, but I don’t think we can keep on going like this. I need some help on how to break up with someone in a civil manner without too much stress.
In the end, I’m sure he’ll find someone else. I’ll be fine, but I want him to be okay, too. He’s a charmer, so I’m certain he’ll find someone that fits him better than me. I’ll be happy to have all of this over. I just need some advice on how to do this, and then I’ll be hunky-dory.
