How do I break up with boyfriend of 5 years?
Cleanly and simply and with the truth.





';I've waited five years for you to get your act together and it hasn't worked. I can't wait five more, i've given you enough time, and i've provided enough and i need someone who can help me provide for a family in the future. You're not that person right now and i'm tired of the excuses, so I'm leaving. I hope you do better for yourself in the future, Goodbye.';

Sounds to me like you two need a serious chat to see where your relationship is heading and if you're both heading in the same direction. Five years is a long time. You need to look deeper at what you need from this relationship and ask yourself honestly if this man is really the one to provide this. Do you make each other happy? Do you want to be where you are now in another five years? 40, a man full of excuses, and no kids? Good luck, you deserve to be looked after as equally as you look after this man x
I totally agree with you. You don't want to waste another 5 years on a mooch!





The best way to do is by sitting down next to him tonite (since you know he has nothing better to do but sit home) and just tell him how you feel. Say that you don't have the same feelings for him that you did once and that you want different things. Don't let him try and talk you into the ';I'm going to change'; BS cause he's scared that you're moving on. If he hasn't changed in this long, he's never going to.





Good luck!
This is what you do: Go out and do something (alone) that you love to do (skiing, book shopping, bowling...whatever!) If you look good and feel good you'll attract somebody to talk...talk...have fun...look slightly interested. And once you have hung out a few times...and are sure that you like the guy...dump the loser and pursue the new guy. baM.
girl dumb him say its over no woman needs a piece of trash like that u need a man that will work and oh he thinks that place is poor i have one stoplight in my town tell him to grow some balls and get over it
5 years is enough time to invest in someone.What sort of bloke lets his girlfriend support him? life is out there waiting for you,dump sponge bum and go after it!
Just go, that is really the only thing you can do!!
Just explain to him that you want more out of life than he is offering.
Break up with him by telling him EXACTLY what you told us. Good luck!
leave a pair of mans underwear in your bed 3 sizes larger than your boyfriend, so he can find it
Text message breakup with that broke d1ck asap and get yourself a real working man! ;D
tell him u want more from live.! Life's too short stop wasting your time. There's more to life sweety.! A LOT MORE.
u should marry with another person.
tell him how you feel he better shape up

that your not going to sit there


and take care of him like he is a child!
Just talkk to him about this... %26amp; If something doesn'tchange.. you'll leave him..
I've heard this before with my mom and step dad! What i would say to you is.. Give him and ultimatium! you have been with him for 5 whole years and he is taking you for granted. I can understand that sometimes it is hard to find a job in certain places but the key is to keep looking. It seems to me that he doesn't even want to try to find a job and that means that he doesn't care as long as your there. Stop being this atm machine its not your job! Tell him its time that he go hard and find him a job if he gives you those same excuses then you tell him to kick rocks because if you do become pregnant and have a child you don't need to stress yourself out by bugging him to do his manly duties. Also, you shouldn't want a man that isn't willing to go hard for his family and even though its just the two of you, through these last 5 years you have been each others family. Its time to put your foot down.. Good Luck to you!
