- You miss being single

- You're not crazy about her anymore but still love her and care about her as much as before

- You know you can do better (appearance wise)

- Your parents don't like her because of appearance

- She's the perfect girlfriend for me, cares about me a lot, etc. I don't think there's any other girl as pure, warmhearted, understanding as her

How do I go with doing this though, her parents love me, she's crazy in love with me (I'm her source of happiness, she ignores everyone if we get in a fight or something but fights rarely happens)

We're 5 months into the relationship and I don't want to be in a relationship anymore, the spark of it isn't there anymore. I just want to work on myself, enjoy life by myself, and not have to worry about a girlfriend and losing feelings for her


I still want to be friends with her after this and care for her because I love her a lot and I don't want her out of my life

It seems your probably not mature enough for a serious monogamous relationship.

It seems, Friends with benefits, or just friends would probably be better for you.

What's considered mature to you? I think I'm pretty mature and understanding when it comes to relationships and I take it serious but I'm not yet experienced in the break up stage and dealing with a girl you love and care for a lot. I know what's right for me I just need advice on this..

You should only break up with someone if it gets to the point where your like "I don't love you anymore" or where its unbearable to be around them or where its just not worth it anymore. Your probabaly going througha phase SPAM if you believe no one could love you as much as her thats an amazing thing to cling onto and you might neevr get that with another girl then regret doing it. I've regretted ending it with girls before. If you want the spark back into the relationship take on board some of these pointers my-24-ways-to-keep-your-girlfriend-vt130354.html

Well... We always think the grass is greener on the other side - everyone goes through phases of missing being single whilst in a relationship. If this is the sole reason, it is not really a good enough reason to leave a relationship.
This sends warning bells. So long as you have been feeling this way for a while and it is not just a phase you are going through because you miss being single. This was one of the reasons my ex and I broke up (there are a lot of other reasons too, but this was a big one). To me, it seems selfish to stay with someone if you don't feel the same way about them anymore because, unintentionally or not, you are going to project these feelings onto them and it will make them feel worthless and really hurt them, which I am sure is not your intention.
This sounds really shallow, but I can see where you are coming from. And again, it's not a good enough sole reason to break up with someone, it can be one of the factors.
Wow - this is interesting! But, I'm sure your parents are thinking long term - maybe they don't want unattractive grandchildren!
Perfect and pure as she may be, if you don't feel the way you should about her, you have to let her go so she can find someone who makes her as happy as she makes him.
It's really, really hard, but if this is what you have made up your mind to do, you must go through with it. I was in the exact same situation - my ex's parents adored me and we were together for over 3 years. Marriage and children were discussed and everything was very serious. I felt trapped and couldn't go through with it any longer. He loved me more than I loved him in the end and it wasn't fair to keep pretending. I started having feelings for someone else, and although I did not cheat on him, I knew I was still being unfaithful in a way and that it would kill him should he find out. I was totally honest with him when we broke up and I told him he deserved someone who could return his love and that I was so regretful that that person is not me.
I 100% understand where you are coming from with this, but you have to understand that this may not happen as you will really hurt her when you break up with her. I desperately miss my ex's friendship and would love to be friends with him, but he doesn't want anything to do with me. I feel terribly guilty for hurting him and throwing away 3 years. I know that he can't forgive me right now and is in too much pain to have anything to do with me, but I am desperately hoping that over time, he will come to terms with it and be my friend. I can't count on this though and you can't either.

Good luck with it all and remember you are not the only one going through something like this.

You're out of the honeymoon phase! If I was you, I would care less. Don't be a dick, but fill your life with priorities you've chosen.

Maybe you don't feel like lassoing the moon for her, but finding someone who genuinely cares about you...it's rare, friend.
