Whts the right way?

How can I let go of my boyfrnd. I just can't be with him |3
I love him but uqh I just want to be sinqel . How can I say it in the
nicest way? Or an excuse? ||:

you love him? but you want to be single.
girl don't make any mistakes.
tell him how you feel, don't lie or make excuses.

if you want to do it the right way then tell him the truth. I just got dumped and my girlfriend told me that it wasn't me it was her and all that stuff because that is what girls think men want to hear. but the truth is I had a hard time moving on and becoming her friend until I got her to be completely open with me about it so I could understand her point of view. now we are good friends and having a great time
