he told me that me and him are to different to be friends. i know hes going to therapy and ever since he started going he has not been the same. i miss being friends with him because i was able to tell him everything. so i was wondering if anyone had any advice on whether or not i should still try to be friends with him because it still seems like he wants to be friends its just really awkward now. anyone have advice?

You should try talking with him, just the two of you alone, and ask him if there's anything going wrong with him... you shouldn't just let the friendship die.

well yea i had a 4 year long friendship with him and all of a sudden he says it. i know hes doing bad in skool and he smokes weed.

My advice is to let it go.

If he's in therapy, he's going through major life changes, which this probably means this is one of the changes. You can live without them, they aren't your only friend. You can move past this.
Quite honestly, if you love and respect them, you will give them the space they need to get this life in order.

If your friend is going through therapy I'm sure he's going through s lot of changes mentally and frankly if he doesn't want to be your friend just move on and make new friends. He doesn't set a very good example by smoking either. You can always make new friends if he wants to end it respect his decision. Hang out with some of your other friends and do some fun things don't let this get the best of you. If you need someone to talk to I'm always here shoot me a VM anytime.

I agree with these two, you need to move on.

For him to end such a long friendship, there had to be a reason. I don't think it's worth it to try to win him back. If he no longer wants to be friends, then there's no point in trying to win him back. It's a lost cause.

Maybe part of his therapy was to let go of the past, which means, like these two said, he will be changing. This means you two will probably not even have the same interests anymore, you two will be very different.

It can be tough to let go, but sometimes you just have to. Good luck.

Agree with the above posts, but...
Just let him know that you're there for him if he ever needs you. He's moved on clearly, and you should too, but keep the door open... If theres a fire and that door is the only escape, you'd wish you hadn't locked it and thrown away the key.

Recently, a friend of mine did the same thing. And she said the exact same thing: we are different, and she also said I've changed. Of course I did! We all do. And of course we are different, we all are.
I cried a whole lot when she said that she didn't have anything else to talk to me, she just thought we should go our own ways. But I already have a lot to handle so I tried to say to myself "to hell with her, she'll miss you one day". Truth is, I feel awful and I'm lost without her, I thought we'd always be friends, but I got used to the idea that that's the way things are, we'll always lose ""friends"", not TRUE friends.

You know, if he didn`t have the guts to tell you in person, he probably wasn`t a good friend to begin with. You should just let it go and find a new friend.

Talk to him about the situation he is in. If he is going through therapy he may just need time to think. It sounds to me like he is going through a tough time and may just need time to think, so give him that. Wait a few days and then try to contact him.

Do you know what is going on with him? Has he done this before?

At least he had the guts to tell him...

I still think that the longer you have been friends, the more important it is to try to at least keep the friendship alive, instead of letting it die...

I agree with this ^^. He may just need space. Make sure he knows that you're still there for him but respect his decision to move on.

End it. He obviosouly needs him, sence he is in therapy, and he dosen't know what a good friend he is loosing. Hopefully when he gets done, and gets his shit straight, he'll get some sence knocked back in his head.
