The Student Room Group

I can't bring myself to dump him.

This guy liked me for ages, and about two weeks ago I eventually gave in and agreed to go out with him. I know I shouldn't have, as I'm really not that into him. He's such a sweet guy, though, and I love him as a friend. However, I've become really unhappy and I just HAVE to break things off with him. I don't know how I can possibly tell him though, he'll be heartbroken. How can I do it without hurting his feelings?
