The best bit of advice I can give anyone that plans to break up with their partner is to remain calm and kind. Have a clear idea in your head of what you want to say before you have the conversation.
They will ask you why and they will want a good answer to that question so be prepared with your answer. Try to be as honest as possible as long as it’s not deliberately mean. If it’s because you don’t think you’re compatible say so. If it’s because you just don’t love them any more say so. Honesty really is the best policy.
Try to keep in mind that they’re going to be hurt and people that are hurt often lash out. They might start shouting and the worst thing you can do is start shouting back. It can be incredibly hard to remain calm in this type of situation but the calmer you can be the easier it will be for both of you.
If you’d like to remain friends with them then say so and see how they react. You may have to spend some time apart first so you can both get over the breakup and then start meeting up again at a later date.
