What is the best way to break up with a sensitive guy?

I have had it in my mind for a while. Our relationship is not going anywhere.

But he is highly sensitive, hypocondriac and he's gonna mope around forever, so I wanna do it the nicest way

Any tip?
Thanks

    The only way to do it is to just tell him. You won't be able to stop him from feeling the way he does when you end it, so you may as well.

    My advice is don't do a "we need to talk" or anything like that to start it off because his gonna panic by the sounds of it just bring it naturally, tell him you don't feel like your in the right mindset for a relationship right now and your breaking up with him because you need a time out for yourself. If he asks if your gonna get back together say no but do it somewhere where you can leave like not at your place cause then it might get awkward trying to kick his ass out if he don't take the hint and excuse yourself and exit. Shii and of course don't feel stuck trying to answer any stupid questions so if he starts em up use that as your excuse to exit by just stating I don't have any answers to provide to anything your asking me I'm gonna go now all I know for sure is I need to be by myself. Also threats of suicide and crying is also a chance of exit easy response is I gotta go I can't deal with this right now and march out like a bosd

        Maybe in a semi public place too so he can't flip out, I'm gonna be honest about something when my Ex [of 8 years] broke up with me at my house I picked up this little glass circular table I had sending everything on it to the floor and I had a flash vision of beating her to death with it, luckily it frightened me and I hauled it across the room instead but I nearly killed the bitch! Granted what really put me to rise was she just got a text and said I gotta go and by the way.... I was like give me your fucking phone who is SHE! I nearly tore it from her hands (I'd brought her the fuckin thing, but beyond the point) I restrained myself because it was none of my fuckin business even though she'd blatantly betrayed me and when she refused I had a flash again of knocken her ass out or smashing her to shit just to pry it from her cold dead hands... But I somehow managed to pull it together and refrain from letting myself react to my initial instincts.

    Just tell him strait up. There's something I need to tell you. Then don't beat around the bush, just say what you need to say.

    There's no easy way to break up with someone so just be straightforward and tell him. How he deals with it is his problem not yours. Life is too short to get caught up and guilt trips for someone you don't care about

        I know and I commend you for that. Just be gentle yet firm and do the break up in a mutual area not somewhere that has romantic memories for either of you, you know? Good luck hope I was able to help

    Sensitive people are always most sensitive about themselves. They're usually their own harshest critics, and that self-hate is easily projected onto everyone else.

    To mature into a man, he needs to be more stoic and less afraid of failure. As for advice you can give him, tell him to read 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' to help him resolve some serious relationship issues that will otherwise haunt him for years.
