Your best approach is to be sincere, clear, and patient with the person you are breaking up with. If they have a question, answer it. And remember that this isn’t the time to be focusing on how you are being perceived by the person you are breaking up with but rather is the time to make sure your ex isn’t left in the dark with a thousand miserable and misguided thoughts.
