    Default Ever had a falling out with a good friend?

    Were you ever got put in a uncomfortable situation where you or your friend broke off a friendship? If so, why and how did you cope afterwards?

    I recently had a falling out with a good friend. I didn't see him in 6 or so years and when he to town, it was all about him. He was making disparaging remarks about people and eventually to me. I did to talk to him and let him know that I was his friend and not his enemy. He continued his behavior and I broke off his friendship with him.

    I have feeling of grievance, since I knew the guy for a long time, but people change.

    You move along and they become part of your history. I don't have emotional attachments to other males. Female friends can be a little more complicated.
    Nine out of ten concerns are completely unfounded.

    Many, lol unfortunately I think I've been one of the most unlucky people with friendships, but I try my best to move on and stay strong. Well the first incident I remember is someone who used to be a very good friend suddenly stopped returning my calls and texts, and she was cancelling 100% of our plans and letting me know last minute... and I figured out she lied to me about a lot too, and that was when I cut her off. Another person stopped answering my messages and said she was always busy when I saw her hanging with other people on social media. I also had another friend make up a false rumor about me that I hacked and banned her Club Penguin account and then she bombarded me with insulting texts, and I had someone tell me right to my face that she wasn't my friend anymore and to leave her alone.
    And lol I had a few other break ups but don't remember them. I don't like to dwell on them but at one point my experiences were so bad I wasn't sure about life anymore.....but I've found new interests and hobbies that make things better, and I don't make friends with anyone in real life anymore.

    i’ve had an online friend who was a month and two days older than me. we knew each other since we were 17. we had a disagreement about abortion, as i told her i was not for it and stood up for my opinion. not to mention, she brought in her whole family to debate me on it.

    if you don’t like babies, fine. don’t have them. not looking to change your mind. i will not stand by and let you slander me because you’re in your feelings and making up shitty stories in which i’m a bad guy since i don’t agree with your narrative.

    this happened to me beginning of last year. i really loved her. i guess the feeling wasn’t mutual.

    sometimes, i miss her. she was my best friend for many years. i remind myself that she didn’t show that same respect, love, or care to me. this is how it has to be.

    Yes, but in the cases that have happened it has been because these are people I consider toxic. I do not have an expectation that people will walk on a cloud of happiness all the time, but people who are constantly negative only seeing the glass as half full and participate in gossip I can do without. Some people simply have a negative energy that makes it a chore to be with them, and then it is better to part ways.

    I haven't had friends for such a long time that I don't remember. It was not a falling out of any sort I'd say that stood behind us not being friends anymore.
