How should I "break up" with him?!?
We've gone on a few dates, and I just don't feel that "love connection"... I'm actually somewhat annoyed by him. I can't go see him or talk to him in person because I've got a bad injury. I was wondering what I could say that wouldn't completely tear him apart. He always tells me how lucky he is to "have me" and how all of his friends and family think I'm too good for him. I don't want to break his heart, but I don't want to lead him on either. What can I tell him so that he doesn't completely break down? I am also his first "girlfriend", so that makes me feel pretty bad, too. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!

Just be honest. Tell him that you care about his feelings, as you obviously do by saying "I don't want to break his heart" but that is not enough of a reason to keep dating him. You need to be excited about the person you are seeing as well as them being excited about you and right now it is a one sided relationship.
The terrible thing to do is what most people do is be very non-confrontational and dishonest about it and just avoid the person until they go away. This makes the person you are breaking up with very bitter and angry about how you "led them on".
Just be honest. Be gentle, but be honest. And be strong, don't let him think that if he changes this or that about himself that you will want to be with him. Don't get involved in telling him "why" or that this or that thing annoys you because that will lead to him trying to change all the things you don't like if he is really that obsessed with you. Just tell him that it doesn't feel right and you don't want to keep seeing him.

Any musician in a band knows that the main significant studio room is off limits to non-band contributors whilst recording. The administration room is as much as the engineer besides because of the fact the band, yet it somewhat is an acceptable place for a female chum, parent, chum, whomever. The very sparkling photos of Yoko sitting in on the Beatles recording classes is obviously uncomfortable and anti-resourceful. it may desire to have been Lennon's reaction to McCartney's administration at situations, considering McCartney became the greater socially perfect, and Lennon became the real rebel. that is in all likelihood Lennon/McCartney could've split formerly long, headed in the direction of 30, and the previous due 20s being an extremely emotionally risky time, yet Yoko being in the room with 4 men who owned the international did no longer help. To me, its surprising that the two McCartney or Herrison stood for it in any respect, yet contracts are contracts, and that they have got been pro businessmen by skill of then. Lennon became susceptible and Yoko manipulative, yet they did seem to discover lasting happiness. particular, she helped ruin them up in a considerable way, yet they have been destined to end formerly lots longer probable, yet who knows? a pair of years off, or if Lennon have been alive considering 1980, we could've gotten some greater Beatles information.

Don't lead him on. Dumping him is much merciful in comparison.
Decent way would be to tell him in person, sorry but it is not working out. We should move on.

You should call him (don't text) and let him know exactly how you feel. If you drag him along any longer it'll just hurt him worse, which is what you don't want to do.
