The best way I believe is to her face and tell her nicely and she will want to know why. So you tell her the truth, being totally honest and don't give any type of lame excuses. Be straight forward with her and maybe if you wish you can tell her "I want to remain good friends if you would like to." If not I understand. Good luck to you. Breaking up isn't always easy!

Tell her straightly and maintain friends. You really have to be honest or you really can't get rid of it. She won't take you very seriously unless you do so. Try to take her out for the 'last dinner' and really explain or something. Don't go to anyplace with weapons nearby or anywhere extravagant because you wouldn't want her to kill you or embarrass you in front of MANY people.

Breaking isn't easy. Even to say the words is hard. But you need to be a man and be straight forward about it. No matter how gentle the words are, there's always someone that will be hurt in the end. I used phone to break up. Not by texting, via phone call. I need to convey all my emotion and don't want any to be lost in the process. I told him I don't feel the same way as he did and don't want to continue to give him hope. I hope we will stop seeing each others. I don't want him to call me for quite a time (if I did give him a chance to call, he might thought he still have hope) It may be cruel but that's how I feel and I want him to know.

There's no point in lying. so tell her the real reason. There is no easy way, I guess. Just don't look back whatever happens and be prepare for any consequences.

I suppose it'd also help if you dont try to 'cast blame' on each other and try to keep it mature. If one of you starts playing the 'blame game' you just might end up with tons of drama or may not even stay friends.
