How do I let him go easy?

You said that *you* want to work things out with your husband and that *you* realized that you still love him and he still loves you. What about the husband? Does he feel the same? That isn't clear.\n\nWhether or not you like breaking up with people, if you are going to date, it's something you must be prepared to do. Naturally things with the boyfriend went great, and of course he's in love with you - you're both on the rebound. That makes you more sensitive and considerate in a relationship. You don't have years of history with him yet, with the little unintentional hurts that can poison a wonderful relationship. \n\nIt's imperative that you break up with the boyfriend immediately if you don't plan to see it through with him. Children are involved. Be honest. You've only been with him 4-5 months, and it sounds like it started immediately after your husband left. Simply explain that while you like him, and things have been great, you started your relationship too soon, while you were still reeling from your husband leaving. Tell him that the time that has gone by made you realize you want to give it another chance with the husband. Be gentle but firm. If it helps, write out exactly what you want to say in a letter, and keep it handy. Then keep it in your pocket. When you tell him, if it becomes too... emotional... give him the letter and excuse yourself.

tell him your not trying to be mean, but you really don't want to have anything to do with him. That you don't feel comfortable around him.

You could just say that you think the relationship is not getting anywhere and that you feel that you need to move on and see other people because there are more fish in the sea.And maybe you guys could just be friends.If he takes it too hard then just try to fall back on the memories you used to have and give him a memorie book of the good times. If he throws it away then you tried.

Talk is cheap...grab his hand and hold on.  Touch is the quickest and easiest way to communicate.

You can try the subtle way. Tell him you like being around him that should do it. Wait and pick the right time.

The clingers are the hardest. You don't have to break it to him gently. Just to be safe, have a good friend with you in sort of a public place and just tell him that you want to break the relationship with him. Let him know that he a great person but he is just not your type. Say you are sorry if he is hurt. Then get up with your friend and politely say good bye and leave. If you have any more problems with him get a restraining order on him and make sure you are always with a trusted friend for a while. Be safe ,think safe, you just never know. Someone who  desperately clings like that -well you just never know what might happen. Next time feel a guy out a little more before a relationship goes too far and you won't get into this situation again. o.k.

Do not react emotionally, when he gets around to it, say, "ok..no problem." or make the first move...guys must be kept off balance to keep their interest. IF he thinks he has you and you will be all brokenhearted if he leaves you, show him you will not be..that will knock his ego for a loop. You have nothing to loose at this point anyway, so make sure you are in a position that he doesn't think he has total control of the situation.

Lean into him close , and barely move your feet ...little steps shifting your weight from right to left. Make sure your where he isn't stepping on you either as he will be donig the same.

You can't.  Period.  Sorry, but if you went into the relationship thinking you could, don't ever do that again.  Let him know that you won't tolerate being controlled, and if he can't live with that, than walk away as soon as you can.  He could turn violent.

Use the following magical words and all will be revealed to you:\n\n"Hey!  Wanna go out this weekend?"\n\nIf the answer is "YES", suggest a time and place.  Any other answer, move on.  Let him go.  Don't force the restraining order.
