Easy way to break something off with a girl?

Do the "Its not you, its me." with a text message. That would be classic.

Done and done. Here was what I typed:
"Hey, I'm beat, but I wanted you to know it's not you, it's me. We'll talk sometime. Bye."
It's 2:48 am and while I can sell ice to eskimos (those who have met me, such as Wellington, would probably attest to this), I'm far too tired to deal with some oversensitive female right now. I feel like sleeping.

Sleep well my friend. No need for unecessary stress in ones life.

Did you, like, actually make it a point to say the worst thing you can possibly say?
PS : The best way to do it is to tell her something along the lines of "Trust me, I know myself and it has happened before, if we continue this, it'll be ugly, I won't be able to put my heart into it as much as I would want to". Then she'd argue, and you'd just go "Trust me, it's better this way for both of us". She'll feel semi-relieved because at least she'll take comfort in knowing it's better that way, and you'll get her off your back. Put all the blame on yourself. In other words, disguise the "it's not you, it's me" part with something else, but never fucking say it outright.
Oh, and that would be done in person, or on the phone, at the very least.
tell her that you arent ready for anything too serious your just figuring out your life and your sure she still needs to. So you dont want to hold her back from advancing herself as a human being and having fun in an everyday environment. You can tell she needs to experience more of life before she settles down and thus you need to be single in order to fullfull these requirements.

My friend did something kinda like that and it only made things worse. He has this weird rule where he won't break up with a girl, she has to break up with him. So he ignored the girl, treated her like crap, and walked away while she was still talking. Well this lead to an emotional explosion on her part. She broke up with him after a few days of this treatment, but it took 3 hours. 3 hours of her crying, 3 hours of them talking, 3 hours of me waiting in the car and driving around the school in circles...
I hate fighting with people, and the only thing I hate more than that is watching people fight. How the hell does a two week relationship take 3 hours to end? He said it took so long because she wouldn't say "I don't want to be with you anymore" to him. Everytime he got close to her saying it, she would start crying and getting into how they could save things. He said it was a horrible experience, but the sex was supposedly amazing. So I guess that might balance out when all is said and done.
I guess breaking ALL contact would work, just make sure she doesn't catch up with ya. I get very stressed in relationships, its always something. You know? I need to take up this modern attitude.

Send her the text message, and then when she confronts you about it, tell her you accidentally sent it to her and not the other girl.

While inserted, tell her to make a sudden, violent jerk to either direction. *snap*

"I'm sorry. There can be only one love in my life - and Sam Raimi has taken my heart. I know it's been tough for you, but please understand. You know the ending of Spider-man 1 where Peter Parker (played by the excellent Tobey Maguire) walks away from Mary Jane Watson (played by the cute Kirsten Dunst) because he doesn't want her to get hurt? It's nothing like that. Man, Spider-man was awesome. "

There is clearly a market for FHUTA shirts. I'm going to find a place that can make me one tomorrow. There should also be underwear that have FMUTA printed on them. I'd buy 'em.
