How to break it to my ex-boyfriend.?
So everyone here's the deal.....My past relationship lasted for 3 years on and off. We constantly fought over everything and he was always rude to me. He would get abusive and hit me whenever he was pissed off about something. He was emotionally abusive as well and would always put me down. He always holds it against me that he would buy me whatever I wanted and paid for so much. Its not like I asked him to and he acts like that should be the reason I stay with him. He cheated on me and lied to me several times but act like he did nothing wrong. I never cheated on him. I literally have no self confidence and I feel like I'll never be good enough. A few weeks ago I got the nerve to leave him and I gave him all his stuff back. Now he wont leave me alone always asking me to come see him and his dogs. Recently I have been talking to this other guy and we went on our first date last night. I hate that I have to hurt my ex but I don't want to be with him anymore. How can I make him give up on trying to get back with me???

"I hate that I have to hurt my ex"
Why, exactly? It never seemed to bother him that he was hurting you. If it had, maybe he wouldn't have lost you. Stop worrying so much about his feelings and worry more about taking care of yourself. Tell him it's done. Nothing he says or does at this point can undo the damage, and the fact he can't respect what you want and stop chasing after someone who doesn't want him back just confirms for you that you're making the right decision. So while you hope you've made your point, if he won't leave you alone even after this conversation, you're going to have to get the authorities involved. Then follow through. Good luck.

You can't. People have to experience things in their own way. He was a bad boyfriend, he needs to realize that, and hopefully it will change him for the better. What you can do is express to him that you are ready to move on and that right now you need space and no contact. He will eventually move on.
