how do i .. break it ><, and go back to how it was b4 .. Options

[m&m]

ive been thinking abt breaking up wif my bf .. but the thing is.. its not that easy. i mean nofings wrong. i jus wana break it. like i still like him. but i jus dont really want a relationship. like i preferred it b4 we went out. how we'd jus flirt aimlessly and talk for hours .. i still feel im not ready and that im not mature for this relationship. i mean like i feel really nervous and stuff wen ppl are around us. i can never imagine us like those couples u c in skool making out. then theres ppl in my class who always laugh, make comments at us wen ever they see us. i always end up blushing, hiding .. ><
i just duno wat to say. i mean i stil wana b good friends. i told my friend that .. but she sed most ppl end relationships like that but they rarely do get back 2 how they were b4 they went out.
any tips?
how about
"hey.. u no how we've been going out for a while.. i was thinking .. that we shood just be friends.."
that sounds so retarted

There really is no easy way to break up with someone and your friend is right......few ever go back to what they once had before they went out.....so I guess......you just have to blame yourself for pretending you were ready when you weren't.....just tell him what you're thinking.....and just...hope for the best...hope that he'll forgive you for breaking up with him and become friends with you again...
