How do you dump someone that didn't do anything wrong, they're just not right for you?
He's supportive and is trying his best to make it work. I don't think he sees that I'm not what's best for him either.

@Virgo94 The problem with people like this in this situation is that they will give you a passionate argument and say you are wrong. Often, the person who wants to break it up gets the impression that they need the rejectee's permission to break it up. So they keep on trying to talk them into it which never works.
You DO have the right to break up a relationship unilaterally. In fact, it's not only your right, it's your duty; it allows the other person to go out there and find someone who really cares, someone who can truly appreciate them in a way you can't.

@greenmountaingal If you truly don't want to be with someone then just do exactly that. Don't be with them. You don't have to take their argument into consideration. And you surely don't need their permission...? I've never even heard of that before lol.

@Virgo94 Lots of good hearted naive young people believe that they can't just dump someone without convincing that someone it's the right thing for both of them. A friend of mine's daughter once spent 16 hours straight on the phone with her boyfriend "helping him understand" why they had to break up.
