Okay. Here we go. My great friendships in preschool and elementary mostly ended because one of us moved away and were to young to have a cell phone to keep in touch. Friendship with Ashton (1 yr) ended because she got accepted into this clique of mean girls and then acted like she no longer new me. Ivory (5 years) told her brother i was into him and the mom overheard and didn't like the thought of her “seemingly daughter” getting with her son so she separated us. Selena (1 yr) went for my man so that ended that. I cursed Malia (2 years) out in front of the group and insulted her for trying to push a guy onto me before I was ready. Tiara (2 years) and Lizzie (2 years) distanced herself from me out if respect for their evil cousin who hated my guts and ruined most of my teen years. Marsh (4 years) slept with one of my bfs (supposedly while we were on break; got pregnant by him) so that ended that. Darius (7 years) and Patrick (4yrs) could not accept forever being friendzoned and started throwing insults since i didn't want to be with them so that ended that. Clayton (3 years) was also into me but i wasn't into him and he kept calling his dad racist and that made me uncomfortable to be around them. Jony (5 years) always hogged the conversation so i started hogging it back, he didn't like it and said unforgivable things to that ended that. Plus i called him out for being verbally abusive to his girlfriend. Tan (8 years) said i wasn't churchy enough for her and was becoming a bad influence by considering sleeping with someone i was dating at the time so that ended that. Ti (4 years), Law (4 years), Zack (3 years) and Avery (10 years) all had very controlling gfs who saw me as a threat despite me seeing them as bro material and not being into them. So they were forced to distance themselves from me and that ended that. Andrea (1 yr) and Brit (4 years) kept making racial remarks and trying to steal the guys that were into me because they didn't support interracial relationships and “wanted to keep the men within their own race.” Bre (20 or so years) and Demond (20 or so years) constantly flake yet always try to impress people with their fakeness. All thats really left now is Kourt (14+ years) but she was never my fave out of the crew anyways. So yea i no longer have a future wedding party and rightfully so

At least I thought we were friends. We had hung out almost every day when we were kids. She started school late, I think, so she is older than me by a year or a couple months, I think. Anyway, I thought of her as my best friend because I thought we were, not on of us gave word on us confirming that we were best friends, I just kind of felt like we were.
Skipping to when I was 10 years old, I lived just down the road to where my best friend was visiting her grandmother. Me and her grandmother lived right next to each other, that's how we were able to play together almost everyday. They never knew each other since my grandmother was paralyzed due to having a stroke some years ago.
My mother was living close by, I was 10. My best friend found out and decided to ask to have a sleepover at my house. At the time, my mother was letting people live with her when she shouldn't have. They never helped to pay the rent, let alone help her with anything at all.
My stepdad's brother had just gotten married to a woman who has four kids. The oldest one was a teenager, in late teens. My step-uncle had three kids, two teenagers and one kid. My stepcousin has a family, just like I do, except I only have a stepsister who is about 8 or 9.
My best friend saw them and completely ditched me in my own home, just to hang out with them. She didn't really talk to me. It was at that moment that I had a feeling that me and her will not be friends for long. That feeling drained me a bit. According to her actions, it appeared that she likes hanging around people who are older than her. She probably thought that I was just a child who just has a child's brain in a child's place. at that age, I knew some things that most or some kids my age didn't know, yet I was still a kid and wanted to be a kid.
Getting a bit older, when I was 12, my best friend hardly even talks to me anymore. I saw her hanging around with other girls who didn't have any insecurities and who knows how to keep a conversation going. This made me to stop looking like a child, trying to get her attention. I just stayed to myself.
Skipping to when I was 15 years old. By the age of 14, I was already going to the movies alone, so I wasn't scared going to see a movie alone because I didn't see any shame in doing so. My best friend, whom did not contact me in a while, called my Facebook Messenger, asking if I would like to see this slasher movie with her. I told her that I had already seen the movie (I actually did see the movie) and she was about to hang up when I told her that I don't mind watching it again. I had really wanted us to catch up.
A year before, I had confessed that I had feelings for her. she told me that she's straight and is fine with being friends with me. I told her that's fine with me as well. I wasn't being dramatic about the rejection, I was neutral, because I wasn't sure if my feelings for her was even real.
We went to the movies. Once we sat down at the top row, she started looking around like she was looking for someone. The movie starts and she spotted someone she knew. She got up from her seat and walked up to a guy that seemed to be our age. It was at that moment that I knew that I was being used as an excuse. She asked me if it was ok if she and her guy friend sat somewhere else. I told her that I didn't mind. I was sulking through the whole movie. This girl made me waste my aunt's money. Not only that, but she also didn't even tell me over text about girl code; I knew her mother wouldn't even allow her to hang around boys. I snitched on her. Before that, I expressed my anger over text. She tried to convince me that I just wanted to get with her. I blocked her.
18 years old, went to prom and saw her. She greeted me with a hug. I was about to hesitate and turn my ass back around, but I didn't. Because I'm nice. I hugged her back with skepticism.
So i had this friend who got along with me great. We both loved food and the same kind of comedy so he and I were great friends.
So we had a group chat of him, his girlfriend, my other best friend and me. This one random day my other friend his girlfriend were going into a very deep anime conversation or something. I was gaming at the time and was loosely participating in the talk, occasionally messaging in between matches.
Apparently he and his girlfriend were on a call and he wanted her to focus on the call rather than the group chat. Now a normal person could simply ask on the group that they need some quality time, and things could have gone smooth. However this dudebro decides to go all out angry on the group chat sending aggressive messages and declaring whatever the discussion was as useless. When i returned to the chat and was confused by what happened and enquired about it, I was met with more anger.
I pretty much immediately left the group chat. I've already got way too much in my life and I had no time for someone who lacked communication skills and thinks he needs to resort to anger rather than be mature and voice his needs. I stopped replying to his texts and unfollowed him and his girlfriend to avoid any drama.
I’ve lost a few friends because of misunderstandings, a few ended because of the person’s lying, but one type of situation that really sticks out in my mind; I have had several friendships end because it turned out that the person was very legitimately a rapist, and in one case a domestic abuser.
It’s always a strange day in the office when you discover that your buddy is unironically a sex criminal.

I've struggled with severe dysphoria my whole life. Got to the point of where I was going to attempt suicide a few times, thank the Lord for my loyal brother who always has and will be there for me. When I came out as trans, I lost everyone. The only two people I have left are my brother and my boyfriend
Oh too many reasons:
- Money
- trust/lies/betrayal
- misunderstanding that could’ve been resolved
- just moved on with our lives and the friendship just faded
- lost contact
I ended more than one friendship because of signs from God telling me to cut off contact. And I had friends reject me due to misunderstandings.
She was a show off. She always had to let me know the price of things, or the brand name of her newest car. Send me pics of their vacations.
She didn't have very much depth to her and I do.
Too much showing off!!!Well, I have ended quite a lot of friendships in my lifetime. Given how I am, friendships just cannot seem to last and part of the reason is because of me, the way I take my decisions and my tolerance levels.
A divorced young mom of two kids who was an outcast in her community, and my friend took for granted that I'd defend her against them, even if my parents would make me an outcast as long as I'd keep in touch with her.
I realized we didn't share similar beliefs on things that are important to me.
The guy became an aggressive, insufferable alcoholic.
A woman. She convinced him I was a horrible person and later she left him to go back with her abusive ex that previously slashed both her Achilles' tendons.
I was not able to attend her wedding it made her veey upset with me
She went away to grad school and we never saw each other again.
The only really good friendships I have had end did so either via death or moving far away.
We moved away from each other new employment. Got married, started having a family.
If the friendship is that good, it wouldn't have ended
When someone says they want to be friends but don’t really act like they do. They don’t try to make any plans basically 1 sided friendship
Money, lies, and tattoos.
I realised she was a bitch
Gas lighting and judgement
Lack of communication
I missed his wedding.
