Come out of relationship

I’m 24M, software engineer. I recently came into the relationship with my old college friend. She is a really good person, but I’m not attracted to her.

And yes, I came into the relationship to cope from loneliness and don’t want to die alone. Right now, we’re in different cities, so we didn’t have any physical relationship yet. But I have to meet her soon during my home visit. How should I convince her just to stay friends?

She is a very emotional person & she already started planning to meet my mother🥲.

The sooner you clear this is better for all.

Don't tell this over text, tell this over video call or at least call.

If you tell her that you got into the relationship because you were feeling lonely, she is going to feel really bad and might feel cheated. Better to give some genuine reasons like different interests, compatibility reasons, etc. Also, don't do this again with anyone. All the best!

Tell her she might not appreciate now, but surely will later

Wrong reason to get into one. You should leave soon.

Easy way is to make yourself undesirable. Tell her you are quitting job and want to be stay at home husband

Dude seriously man come on that’s messed up. Have the balls to say it to her. She deserves to know the truth that you got into a relationship for loneliness.

She needs to know the complete truth. She deserves to know it at least be honest with her.

She deserves that much. Now is your chance GO!!!

Tell her asap and from next without feelings don't just jump into relationship with anyone for sake of loneliness. There are humangious of things to do with loneliness.

Have to tread carefully here. Best case is to tell her in person and don’t be rude to say that you don’t find her attractive enough, no matter what the Internet says, she will take it to heart and it will be a messy breakup.

Like it or not you will have to play that “It’s not you it’s me” crap. That is the reality. Else you can be down right honest as well. It all comes down to you.

If you go via polite route, then maybe say that you are not sure what you need from life right now(since you are 24 only) and want to explore on your own want you want in future.

Relationship is not only about physical traits but more about the overall person as well. So keep that in mind as well. Just my two cents🙂
