ending a relationship wit a friend

[soccer]

I was just wondering if anyone has done this (stop being friends with someone) because I am seriously thinking about doing this. If so, how did you do it?

[AncientCatastrophe]

I haven't really done this but why are you ending a relationship with a friend anyway??
You might want to think it thoroughly so that you'll know what would be the effects of it into your social life.

Well before you 'decide' that you want to destroy your friendship why not think about it first? Just make sure that you're certain you don't want this person in your life any more and if you work out that that's the case...
Just be straight with him/her, tell them directly that you don't want to be involved with them and that you'd like him/her to stay away.

I've done it, and trust me, it is not something you want to do without MUCH consideration. if you do decide to, every moment you see them afterward will be awkward as hell, you'll have to avert your eyes. you'll feel scared that they might tell your secrets to the world. just... really think it over.

Well i did it to my ex bf. I didn't wanna be friends with him no more he is a jerk and the thing that really pissed me off is turning his guy friends who's straight into gay or bisexual for his selfish needs. SO i told him straight out on aim i don't wanna be friends with u no more,i explain y and told him imma block u and that was it,but since he holds grudges. He told his home girl to hit me up insulting me lol it was so funny and sad.So i blocked her too and that was that. Even tho i don't think i can avoid him since he lives a couple of blocks away. So if i was u just tell the person straight up and explain y and don't say sorry it will make it worst.

before you do it. think of why your doing it, is it worth ending a good friendship ?
if there is something bothering you about that person try talking to him/her. see if you can sort it out, losing a friend is really harsh. specially if you were really close and knew eachother a long time.
hope i helped.xoxo

As it's already been said, really think about it.

But if you have and you've decided then you can either slowly stop speaking to them, just fade it out. Or, if you want to give them a piece of your mind because you're pissed off then you can do that too. BUT, if you do that, think of the consequences. At least if you just fade it out there is no hard feelings.

My best friends, haven talked to them in a few years lol. ?I just stopped alking to them, "hey, can you come over?" "sure" but at school and all, i just hung out with other people. that worked for me

Well, I've had to end a few friendships. The big one I had to end was because I was on my last straw and this so called "friend" had told me that maybe people wouldn't hate me as much if I stopped slitting my wrists like the fucking emo I apparently was.
