so i need to get out of this relationship, its not doing me any good and i need to get out. my girlfriend has a few issues, depression, anxiety. Im afraid that when i break up with her that she will hurt herself or have a breakdown. I dont know how to break up with her, we cant meet outside of school, i dont want to do it at school and i dont want it be via the internet. can anyone help me out?

Face to face is always best.. try to ease into it, get her opinion on how she thinks its been going. Make her see how it isnt working, tell her that you'd like to break up but still be friends and you will still be there to support her if she so needed it.

Its a hard one. But be comforting and kind about it

Completely agree with Fran. Especially that you can still be friends and will be there for her any time she wants someone to talk to about anything. Hope everything turns out as best it can.

This is a hard one. I was in the same situation about a month ago. Well basically you're going to drop an egg onto concrete and hope it doesn't break. I recommend telling her that you will still be there to support her with her problems and that you can still be friends, but that the relationship isn't healthy for either one of you.

Have to agree with Fran on this one. Face to Face is always best.

You have two options. Be gentle (this is the one I would try first) and ease her into it and get an opinion how she thinks the relationship is going, then make her see how the relationship is working and say that you don't think the relationship is working out and tell her that you want to break up but remain friend and you are willing to support her if she ever needs help.

The second option if she gets emotionally clingy and refuses to acknowledge that you wish to break up is simply say it in a hard, cold and raw manner. This method is not a good one to try but if she is being emotionally clingy and refusing to acknowledge that you want the relationship to end then this might be the second best method to go about it.

Like I said go with the gentle option and then see how it goes from that point on. Make sure it is face to face and offer support.

I hope everything works out for the pair of you. :)
