Now, it’s unfair on you both to drag it out if you know it’s going to end.

It will just be harder the longer you wait. How do you know it’s going to end? How can you be sure?

If you know for certain that this relationship isn’t going to workout then you should end it. You are wasting the chance to meet someone who might work out better by staying with someone you know isn’t the right one.

khyron is right. WHat if the perfect guy comes around and you are in a relationship with this guy? You might miss your chance forever.

Do YOU want to be in the relationship right now… Forget about two weeks, or two months from now… Right now, forgetting about all ethics, his desires, the future, etc. etc. Do you want to be in the relationship as of right now?

If your hearts not in it then it is not fair to keep dragging it out honey, it will only get harder the longer you leave it

Cakes couldn’t have said it better, Sweetie, Why would you want to hold on to someone, when there’s nothing there, You both are deprieving each other from finding a truly compatiable partner, Good luck Sweetie!!!

People its not that easy to just tell someone, who you know DEEPLY cares for you, how you honestly feel esp when you know it will hurt them.

Ask yourself this question. Think long and hard and whatever answer you come up with should let you know if you want to stick it out or stay. I know its hard but the truth has to come out one way or the other. You will feel guilty and he will feel a distance between you two if you stay only because you dont want to hurt him.
