Hand hold- breaking up.

[Evilwater]

I've never broken up with a guy before and I'm having to do this. We are not really in a relationship, but we have talked for a month on the phone and had one date and two nights together.

Basically;
Wrong guy,
Wrong time
I don't have the time,
Sex drives don't match,
Plus I'm not really over the previous guy.

Any words of advice would be grateful.

Hi Evil I know you from dating thread
I'd say the not being over the previous guy is probably causing the other issues. When you don't see someone and it plays on your mind you're not free to work anything else out relationshipwise.

I'd tell current bloke that you have unresolved issues with an ex and realise you need to be alone. I wouldn't mention other issues as that will play on his mind.

Sorry to post on this thread, know it's not a good time, but the dating thread is full. Not sure if you were pulling across or would like someone else to move it?

Is there a good time to break up? It's his birthday next week.
Text or phone call?
Ripe it off like a plaster? Or dither?

I'd text soon and say you have some news that isn't positive, give him time to read and be prepared. Then see if he wants to know more by text or phone.

Just tell him.

He's hardly going to be crying after one date
