DO NOT WAIT TO END THE RELATIONSHIP. If you feel this way, you already know he is not right for you. The absolute worst thing you can do in this position is wait for it to get better. The longer you wait, the more you will hurt him. And in the end, you will end up hurting yourself for what you have done.

BREAK UP IN PERSON. If the guy has been good to you, and you honestly respect him as a person, then give him the dignity of letting him down in person. There is not a more cowardly move than doing this over the phone, or even worse, a text message. Look him in the eyes, explain exactly how you feel. If he really cares for you he will respect your honesty.

DO NOT GIVE IN TO CRYING OR BEGGING. More than likely, the person you are with is going to be sad or angry. Do not allow them to beg you into staying with them. Things will not change because they're angry or sad. All you have to do is remain calm. Also, don't give them the idea that it is only a problem or two. Simply tell them there is no chemistry, this usually works.

HOW TO WALK AWAY. After you have had the talk and it is ending, explain that you still care for him, even if they are sad and hurt. Tell them you have to be true to yourself, and that it is only fair for the both of you. Maybe give him one last gentle kiss, and then walk away.
