text: If you are trying to decide the best way to break up with your boyfriend then you might ask a friend. If that friend says to just go up and say it to his face and not care about what he feels, you might not think that's the nicest way to break up with him. You would want to ask someone else for advice about what to do because may not like the answer to you got. Another friend might say to go up and slowly ease him into it. See when you ask multiple people you can get another opinion if you don't like the first one.
