it's hard to do that when you're in love. I don't know what i could do. I would probably hope for some time that he would change. if he really wants that than he could do it. but if I see that he keeps acting like a total jerk I would probably dump him

Hand him/her a candy and let them go on their way... hehe...
get real... One can never end relation without hurting someones feeling unless its done mutually. The best way to break up would be to pour your heart out and be honest and tell her/him why do you want to move out of it.

I think every relationship ends painfully. If not both, there is one who will really suffer the pain of break up. Well, unless both parties do not have that special towards each other no more but it usually do not happen. One or both really have to endure the pain.

it is more easy to end it by cutting off communication than to still declare to him that it is all over. the lack of any hint of the other person will be enough clue that the relationship has nowhere to go.

I don't think it's easyer...and I don't think is right to that. because if he loves you, than he'll try to look for you and find out the answer, why didn't you give him any sign, he won't understand the reasons. and I think this is a coward's decision. you should face the problem and try to explain him why you want it to end. you're adults and you could understand

adults always refuse to understand since they're not children anymore. if they are still children they will understand but you can't teach adults so there's no point.

it's not about teaching. I don't know about the person you had to deal with but for me if a guy did that to me I would like to know why..I have the right to know that..and if he explains it of course I would understand and accept his decision.love by force it can't be so there's nothing else I could do

if he/she loves you too much dont hurt is impossible 
but you can be honest and tell things slowly and in a sweet way. that way they will understand you and wont blame you. and wont be that hurt. at least you were honest and didnt cheat. so they will appreciate that for sure^^ honesty is always the best way to end a relation^^

Well there is no such thing unless he/she feels the same way, but chances are is not like that.
So the best way is also de hard one, do it right and do it fast and let him/her say everything.
There will be a lot questions why? can we start over? is there someone else? well if anything you can just have a nice talk answering the questions.
Also if you want to be friends carefull becouse if the question Can we start over? comes in to the table or other questions like that one chances are you can't be friends for a long time becouse he/she still has the hots for you.

I really don't think it's possible to end a relationship without someone's feelings getting hurt... unless it's a totally mutual decision to split. However, even then, there are likely to still be sad or hurt feelings because the relationship has ended. I think the best way to do it is to just be very honest and upfront. I don't believe it's ever a good idea to stay in a relationship that isn't working for you anymore... it's just not fair to either person involved. People deserve to be happy so be honest, tell the truth that it's time to move on and then both people can work on feeling better :)
