“Went Full MAGA”: 82 People Share The Moments They Knew A Friendship Was No Longer Worth Saving

He dumped everyone for a girl. When the girl dumped him he'd come crawling back. Got tired of it.

A lot of friendships are predicated on the same environment. Remove the environment and the friendship ceases to exist because neither party needs anything from the other. The shared space is gone. No need to keep in touch.

They were self centred , and the final straw they just don’t bother asking me how I was after not seeing them for a few months. Just launched into their usual [nonsense]… oh and I had actually nearly [passed away] a couple months before the meeting lol.

Massive energy vampire with major codependency issues.. Everything happening in her life was a calamity. We could only hang out in places that she felt comfortable, we only did things she wanted to do. The only reason we were friends was because we were similar in age in a choir full of people several years older than us, and she clamped onto me first chance she got.

Flaking on me repeatedly with no notice. Like make plans to hangout and just not show up. It started with a particular friend group after I had my first baby. It was so painful to realize how little consideration they had for me. I have a no tolerance policy on this type of behavior now. If you don't wanna hang out or have to cancel, it's fine as long as you let me know. But if someone's just not gonna show up and waste my time? As far as I'm concerned, that person isn't my friend.

I’m his only black friend. And I’m mixed at that.

Called him and was like “yo fam, dumb at best, idiotic at worst.”

He was like “save the history lesson bro, I already posted it, what would I look like taking it down”

I was like, “say less, best wishes to you and yours”

Two weeks later a mutual friend FaceTimed me saying wassup. I guess he didn’t know I quit talking to Kirkbro, and put him in camera.

*click*.

My best friend from college had some kind of creepy/strange obsession with my brother. after years of best friendship she had started going to him and trying to “bond” with him over sharing some of my super personal, private information. oh and she threw in some total lies too. I broke it off in a text the day before college graduation and never looked back.
I have to admit that it’s been really hard and although it’s gotten easier over the last three years I still think about her every single day. I miss her but I absolutely cannot justify staying friends with somebody who hates me.

He embezzled $10,000 from my brother and thought we wouldn’t figure it out.

Over 30 years, he became snarky and insulting. All jokes were directed at me. And then he put the icing on the cake by telling me that he’s hated me all those years. Jerk.

She saw where I lived.
I grew up in a decent mobile home park, her parent owned an oil company and lived in a penthouse suite.

After our grad class bush party night I offered for us to sleep the day off at my parent's place as it was just down the mountain, and she was surprised that a "tinder box" can actually be nice inside. Afterwards, I wasn't wealthy enough for her to continue being friends with me, lol.

No reason, sometimes people just evolve in different directions.

I realized the friendship was entirely one-sided.

I told them how much their behavior bothered me and they broke our 6 year long friendship off over text.

Grew up with this guy, pretty much spent my childhood with him.
I ended up moving back to my home country(Japan) and one day his wife hits me up asking if we want to do a snack exchange for their kids so I bought over $100 worth of Japanese snacks like Kit Kats and sent it over to where they lived in Arizona.

Took about a 3 months to realize they didn’t even attempt to ship me American snacks. So I just cut him off.
Friendship lost over a mere $100. Guess nothing of value was lost except the money I spent.

Oooh the weirdest one was they were possessive about the friendship. Like they’re genuinely not happy when I have friends/date outside the group.

This guy and I had so much in common. We got along great. We're both retired (early retirement. not too old).

He apparently never planned for retirement. My late wife and I sacrificed a lot for our future. So I'm doing fine, but friend isn't. (he made a lot more money than I did when we were working).

So because he's always broke, he acts like he's entitled to my money. Not long ago, he asked if I could buy him a drink at our usual bar. I agreed, so he ordered drink after drink, and decided to go ahead and have dinner on my tab. He really doesn't see anything wrong with it.

Last year, his girlfriend threw him out, so he stayed at my house for two weeks. He acted like he owned the place. I just can't.

She was a heavy drinker. Most of our hangouts involved me being a DD and us hanging out at bars and her drinking too much. I started to feel
like I was enabling her poor choices and when I talked to her about it she didn’t see it as a problem so I thought it best to move on from eachother.

She kept sending me confessions despite me telling her for YEARS that I'm straight. Soon I found out from our mutual friend that she showed stalkerish behavior towards me and that they cut her off because they thought it was creepy how she kept talking about me in every single one of their conversations. She would add me using 5 dummy accounts and used the names of her family and even one of our friend, she would keep sending me follow requests on my dump account despite me cancelling it every time, she sent me a love letter on my gmail despite me not telling anyone what my gmail is, and she sent follow requests on people that are closest to me. Worst of all? She kept trying to bring back our close bond instead of respecting my decision to end our friendship.

Dishonesty.

With longer friendships it means that one person may experience a lot more that ‘grows them up’ and they no longer relate with their friend. It’s different life stages.

Another point is a friendship based on an earlier relationship dynamic that no longer works. For me it was me being a quiet and introverted person who went with the flow and gravitated towards a very outspoken and dominant friend. We were friends for almost fifteen years. When I grew into my own and had stronger sense of self and my own boundaries I then found myself in more friction with this person. When I stood up for myself even against her she dropped me.

I still mourn the friendship because I think back to earlier times. But the truth is that I couldn’t be truthful to who I am now while being subservient to her in our interactions.
