Breaking up with a romantic partner hurts, but friendship breakups? Some say they cut even deeper. There's a unique kind of pain in losing someone who once knew all your secrets, your habits, your heart. 
To better understand why these emotional rifts happen, we’ve compiled real stories from people who had to walk away from their best friends. These confessions are raw, honest, and sometimes downright shocking, ranging from betrayal and jealousy to simply growing apart. If you've ever ended a friendship, this might just offer the comfort or closure you've been searching for.

After knowing him for 13 years, he went and got an absolutely insane, broom flying, full-of-baggage girlfriend that drove us completely apart. She dumped him about 5 months later, but the damage is done and repairing isn't an easy task.

It was my three closest friends in a single night.

It was the night of my birthday party, held at my new partner's luxurious (this will be important later) apartment, where I now lived. Among the 80 guests were my three closest friends: Bill, Julian and Sara, who had been my friends for 13, 18 and 12 years respectively. Bill arrived very irritated and declined to give a speech despite having agreed to prepare and deliver one. Julian was in a terrible mood and monosyllabic all evening and Sara walked around the party all night with a confused look on her face telling my guests that she couldn't believe that I could be living in such a nice place that was even nicer than hers! I realised that my 3 best friends had behaved so badly because they were jealous that I was living in such a beautiful apartment.

I had always been the least successful among my 3 best friends and that had never been a problem for me; I was genuinely glad for my friends’ good fortune. It seemed that the obverse was not true. After that night, I became more discerning about the people I let into my life. So though the experience was a very painful one, wiping out 3 long friendships in a single night, it was ultimately beneficial. Today I have friends who want the best for me, as it should be, and I rid myself of the frenemies

He was not my best friend but a close one. I realized I was the only one initiating plans or even the only one to message him first on FB. He was a cool guy and I genuinely liked hanging with him. BUT one day eight years ago now, after we had hung out I was like "yeah now its your turn man" and I waited and waited and waited. NOTHING. I found out he found a girl and got married like a year and a half later. Of course I was not invited. SO I just deleted him from FB and everything, bye bye.

My friendship was given an ultimatum. Long time ago now.

Do this or else statements. I walk away regardless.

I don’t think I need to elaborate further.

I’ve had many friends come and go. So I’ll name one:

She stopped talking to me a couple of days, no idea why. When I asked her she said nothing.

then randomly she goes and tells my boyfriend at the time that I had been drinking. A secret I only shared with her as one day we met up and had some alcohol at the park, my boyfriend was abusive at the time and said I wasn’t allowed. She saw his reaction and laughed. Then called me pathetic, laughing some more.

Obviously more unfolded after that but the friendship ended that way. I have no idea why she did what she did

Angry young woman with long hair and crossed arms, expressing feelings of betrayal by close friends breaking trust.
She got so upset because she wasn’t my maid of honor in my wedding. I tried so hard to hang out and talk to her despite her being mean and not talking to me. I realized I was putting all the effort in and quit trying. She did end up coming to my wedding last year but I quit making the effort to try and fix things/ talk but I was the only one trying. Haven’t talked to her since. I’m still sad about it until this day.
