I want out on a relationship that is not much of a relationship anyway.?

Forget breaking it to him "gently."  It is like pulling off a band-aid.  It actually hurts less if you do it fast and sure.\n\nYou seem to have figured out that this guy is just using you as a kind of receptacle.  You meet during the week for dinner and sex, and then the weekends are taken up with other people (his boys).  You come into the picture after 2 am, presumably just in time for some more sex and then a snooze.  What you have is not a boyfriend; at the MOST, it is a "friend-with-benefits."  \n\nOf course you have feelings for him.  He must have some good qualities, or you would not have been attracted to him in the first place.  But what are you getting out of this relationship, other than those "benefits"?  Not much, apparently.\n\nYou just have to tell him that you are not getting what you want from him.  You like him, you like those benefits, but it is not enough, and you going your own way, starting the next day.  In other words, the way to end it is to end it.  DO NOT let him draw you into an argument.  If he can argue you into a relationship, he continues to have total contol, and you have already seen what that leads to.  Enough!\n\nJust like you, he has to move on, so let him get to that as soon as possible.  Good luck!!

Do what your heart says to do, dont waste time on someone you obviously dont care much about, dont make it a routine with someone, when you could have the real relationship you want! Go for it man!

Umm, this is a no brainer! You are a free bird either way dear! You need to call a few people and go out. Until you make a solid commitment to go steady, or call each other b/f and g/f you can date date date!!

tell the guy to help you announce that you arent dating. and then after a few days meet each other secretly or in a friendsly matter (not just hanging out as if just friends)

Wouldn't you kind of have to date someone at least once not in a relationship? I mean how else would you start said relationship?\n\nBut yeah man, dating can be done just for fun with no long term goals. Live your life and don't get hung up on the small stuff.

you can, or you can wait and get to know each other better. especially if you dont want to end up dating someone who actually likes someone else. you've got plenty of time before you need to start worrying about this stuff...i know most people are dating by this time, but i waited till i felt i was more mature and the relationship would actually mean something, and i'm very happy that i did.

I suggest you sever all ties now if you don't want the "booty call" relationship. You will find someone who can appreciate "everything" you have to offer.

Why not lay off the sexual stuff altogether?  Concentrate on becoming better friends.  Do activities together.  \n\nIf you're not ready to go forward, maybe you should go backwards.

tell her indirectly that you are not up for commitment right now and that if you do get commmited these are the criterias you are looking for (obviously none of the criterias will match her!) dont just come out and tell her you dont feel for her directly because that hurts a lot. keep your space from her and ignore her calls or stop meeting her if you are, she will get the message in time.

It sounds like you've really thought this all out, and you have made a good plan. It takes courage to step out there and take a chance on a relationship. Just being yourself and being honest is seriously the way to go. \n\nBest wishes!\n~Tia~\nYahoo Brainiac\nhttp://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/asktheplanet/brain.html
