I am not quite sure how you could break up with your girlfriend without breaking her heart. What I'm pretty sure about, a hundred and one percent, is that you'll break her heart. :( Sorry, but no matter what you do, she'll still feel hurt and miserable especially if the bond she has with you and the love she has for you is great. However, if you really feel the need to break up with her and think that it's going to be good for you both, then talk straight to her, explain why it needs to happen. Don't hide any details because that'll make her feel worthless. Don't forget to let her know that she was loved, appreciated, and thought of. Also, help her heal after this talk. Whatever you think is going to help her, then do so. Goodluck :)

just try to distance yourself...and do try to remain friends.... give her the actual reason that you want to break up with her... no bitterness...

I don't think there's any way to do it without breaking the other's heart. This is always a difficult thing to do, and it always hurt. if it doesn't hurt her, it only means that she doesn't care.
I agree that the best thing to do is to be honest, and give the real reasons of the breaking up. I would add that if you are sure this is what you want to do, don't wait for a 'good occasion' or sometimes when 'the conditions are ok'. There is no good time to do it. you just have to do it, and you have to do it the sooner the better. Waiting would only postpone the unavoidable (if it's the case), and since you both will need time to get over it and turn the page, the sooner you start mourning and accepting it, the better.
