guy help: How do you get rid of some one in a nice way? - Help.com

Tell him he’s a cockwaffle.

try watching How to Loose a Guy in 10 Days LOL!!

if u can’t say it directly then maybe try to make some excuses…

i dont think you can do it without hurting him unless he dosent care about you. it will hurt him but its better to let him know than lead him on thinking you want him

there isnt really a nice way to get rid of someone unless that other person agrees with u also and is thinking the same as u

Take him somewhere nice, sit him down and just tell him how it is. tell him you don’t think its working out, you guys are just two very different people and that you don’t think its going to work.
Do it as nicely as possible, take your time and let him have his space.

Just do it. Breakups are always hard, but if it’s not working out then there’s no point in keeping it up for nothing. That’s how dating is. Just tell the guy it’s not working for you and if he wants to know why then be honest. It may sting, but in the long run it may even help him when he finds another relationship and you’ll be better off to.

Personally, I like Danielle’s answer.
(Even tho the Commander’s answer had me rolling):o)
There really is no “gentle” way to let a person down.
It will hurt, if he has any feeling for you.
But I would much rather be told than to be lied to day by day.
By telling him, you are doing an act of kindness.
I had a girlfriend once who would simply morph herself into the nastiest “B” in the world…just to let a guy down. And it worked. But she had to invest alot of time in it. And it was rough on her psyche.
Honesty is always the best policy….:o)
