I just broke up with my boyfriend, I am not too sure on how to handle it....?
Hi everyone, I recently broke up with my boyfriend and I haven t seen him in three days since the break-up. I broke up with him because even after all of the second chances I gave him, he still failed to try and make it work. He is a great guy and I care for him a lot but I came to realization that he is not the one for me. My problem is that even after I had the talk with him and told him how I felt repeatedly, he still doesn t understand that I no longer want to be with him. he wants to work on things even though I don t anymore, I just don t know how to explain it to him any better. He wants me to meet up with him and talk some more but I have been avoiding him because I m not too sure on what else I can say to him for him to realize that I m done with him. I m just in a weird place right now since I m done with him but he can t let me go and I don t know what else to do. I tried my best to make it work.

Sounds like you gave him the opportunity and for what ever reason he blew it.
Yea, it's time for you to move on.

Tell him once and for all what you posted in here, you couldn't say it any clearer. If he had feelings for you, there wouldn't be a need for 1 second chance nevermind other second/third/forth chances. Actions speak louder than words here... and his actions prove he's not that honestly interested in making things work. Don't waste your breath nor feel bad. Also if he really was that great guy you say he is, he'd have done his part.

You did your part and told him it’s over. You explained it to him. If he can’t understand then that’s his problem.
Look at this way you told him what he had to do and he failed , you told him it’s over and he is using the excuse he doesn’t understand.
He has no intentions of changing so stop wasting your time . It takes 2 to make a relationship ship work. You gave him chances so move on.
Do not meet him any longer. If he doesn’t respect that then you can get a restraining order .
I am a 58 year man and I have seen my share of men who just don’t get what it takes to make a woman happy . Especially when they are under 30. That’s when men start to get it . They mature up or at least many do.

Hmm... what exactly was it that did not work? Also, have you considered that you expressed yourself incorrectly, that is to say in a way that it could not be understood because you were too overwhelmed with emotional turmoil? Do you still feel that way? In that case, and I mean this seriously (although it is usually reserved for married couples), why not try counseling? What if your boyfriend did not understand what it is exactly you wanted. I mean, I certainly can't tell either, because your description to your question is still very ambiguous.
