I love my girlfriend but I don't think the relationship will lead to marriage?

I'm 26 yrs old (Caucasian) and have been dating my Asian American gf off and on for about 3 yrs. I love her so much, but I just don't think she's the girl I'm going to marry. Her parents don't speak english very well and I don't think they really approve of her dating a white boy. I also don't feel as if I fit in with her friends (who are all Asian). We broke up a while ago because she kind of felt the same way I'm feeling right now, but then I begged and pleaded and did all these romantic things to win her back. I said a lot of things that I thought I meant at the time, but I now realize that I just missed being in a relationship and let my emotions do too much talking. How do I explain this to her without coming off as too much of an A-hole? I know what I need to do, but it's so hard because she's such a sweet girl and also very sensitive. How do I let her down gently?

As much as the truth hurts, you just have to say it.

Be honest, don't hesitte....you're leading her on at this point. if you care about her, you won't delay.

Just tell her you don't see your relationship going anywhere?

Hmmm. Well, congrats on having perfect spelling and grammar first of all. LOL. I see you do a lot of thinking and maybe too much. Do you see outsiders as the reason you cannot be with her or do you love her enough to overcome all that?
