Well now I'm fucked. I'm basically in love with one woman (who feels the same) and wanting to break off all my other goings-on, but I'm just dreading it. There's two other women I've been seeing, and I'm feeling compelled to break it off with them so that I don't fuck it up with my new match.
So here's a question for the chorus: what is the most acceptable and least hassle option of actually delivering a break-up to someone who has admitted, repeatedly, having very strong feelings. Also, sex has been involved with both.
I can't do this via text, can I? Phone call? Face-to-face meeting? Smoke signals? Just go completely ghost? I know face-to-face is optimal, but that involves scheduling and childcare and burning an entire no-kid evening, plus do I deliver the news at the outset and then we just go our separate ways? Do I deliver at the end of the night?
I intend to be completely honest about this, but I also want to break it off with the least amount of drama and hassle for me. Any advice? Fortunately, one of them is married with kids, so she won't have much standing to get all "HOW DARE YOU???" on me. The other lady, the aforementioned bartender, is going to be very tough because we've become very close, but I knew it was never going to really stick.
