How to Get Rid of a Boyfriend in 6th Grade

When youre in 6th grade, having a boyfriend can be a lot of fun. That is until you want to end the relationship. If youve never broken up with a boy, your stomach may be full of knots, and once you have broken up with him, you may never want to show up at school again for fear of seeing him. This is normal, and ending a relationship is always hard. Getting rid of a boyfriend in 6th grade takes a gentle approach and sensitivity.

Instructions

    1

    Meet your boyfriend in a public place, or a place where your mutual friends are present. Although this seems like a situation that requires privacy, it is a good idea to remain safe in a group environment in case things get emotionally intense. When friends are around, step off to the side while remaining in their sight. You dont want to publicly humiliate your boyfriend.

    2

    Make eye contact with your soon-to-be ex. It is important to maintain composure and not appear uneasy. You do not want to give him any opportunities to try to coerce you into staying in the relationship.

    3

    Explain calmly that you are no longer interested in having a relationship with him. Do not use accusatory sentences such as, "Youre so boring," or "You never call me." Instead, use yourself as the subject to address your reasons for ending the relationship. For example, "I feel like we shouldnt be rushing into things," or "Im not ready for a boyfriend" are straightforward and gentle statements that get your point across.

    4

    Tell him the truth when he asks you why youre breaking up with him. Remember it is important to be gentle when breaking up with a 6th grade boy. If he isnt your type, tell him. Just make sure he knows that he shouldnt worry about changing. There isnt anything wrong with him; youre just not interested in dating him.

    5

    Strive to be friendly even though youre no longer dating. An ex-boyfriend from 6th grade can turn into a lifelong friend.
