My girlfriend and I started off as friends. We’re now 2 years into dating and I’m just not into it anymore. I want to break up with her, but I’m scared about hurting her feelings. I want us to go back to friends because I do really care and love about her but I just don’t want to be in a relationship with her anymore. 😔

You can not break up without hurting her feelings and your friendship will never be the same. Hard truths are hard to swallow but you getta get rid of the delusions that this is a win-win situation for you.
>I want us to go back to friends
Worth keeping in mind this may not be an option. If she’s still got strong feelings then it’s going to be a struggle to transition to just being friends again. Sometimes the clean break is needed but it’s worth letting her lead that side of things.
Also, when it comes to ending a relationship, it’s generally not possible to avoid the hurt unless both sides are on the exact same page. That still doesn’t mean it’s not the right thing to do. The bigger hurt would be to keep things going.
