How many of you have had to end a close and/or long standing friendship? And what were the reasons why you had to end it? (Just friends please- no significant others or family members.)

I actually ended a long friendship with my former best friend a few years ago because our personalities clashed. He was constantly flirting and kissing girls even though he had a girl who was working her tail off making ends meet for the two of them. One clear example was when I visited him from out of town with my then girlfriend, he took us to a bar and spent the entire time flirting with one of his co-workers. He just left us sitting on a windowsill.
We've reconciled, but part of me still remembers what he did to not only us, but to his girl. I've lost some trust with him.

ive ended 2 such friendships in the past 5 years. The first was because the girl im currently with (and a few others that dont know one another) all said that my "friend" didnt know how to take no for an answer...and to me...there is nothing worse
the 2nd one was another friend of mine who supposedly was a "zen bhudist" (sp) yet he beat his wife so bad she had to get stitches
neither of them are real men in my book. Guess thats why im concidered one of the last original nice guys out there.

I had to end a 7 year friendship with my best friend or so i thought . The reason was because she was two face and like spreading rumors and could not keep secrets to here self .how i ended it i just told her straight out when i caught her in a lie that i was not going to sit around and be her puppet to her lies and rumors and that she was no longer allowed to come over or call me because i was not going to answer her calls and i walked away.........

I used to hang out with a buddy of mine at least once a week. Becuase he didn't have a car, I picked him up and drove him wherever we went. Not once did he ever to offer to pay for gas or parking, and I always paid for myself too. This went on for about a year or so.
One day, we were chatting and he told me that he was planning on getting his driver's license, then he would go out and buy a car. He then said to me "so then you won't have to pick me up anymore." To which I thought, 'Right, 'cause you'll do all the driving'. What he said next was "Because we can meet there." I said 'screw you' and never called him back.
I knew him for about 8 years at that point and haven't missed him one bit.

I had a friend who recently accused me of having an affair with her husband. It was not true. She was mad at me because I did not give her $60.00 to get her hair and nails done. I found out quickly that she is not a friend I wanted to have.

i'm a female and a guy friend of mine don' talk anymore. he and i didn't agree about relationships and society. he feels you have to do what ever you have to do, i.e. cosmetic surgury, weight loss and money, to be accepted and be happy and i didn't agree. he had this girlfriend that was cold. i dubbed her the ice queen. he would take her on shopping sprees, she wouldn't even say thank you, pick her up from clubs that she would hang out at w/o him, wouldn't speak to his friends in social settings, flirt with other guys in front of him, expect him to pay for everything including her children (by other men) and her bills. she just treated him like like crap and he would take it. then she'd break up with him to go out with other guys and if he tried to move on with his life she'd make him break up with whatever girl he'd be seeing at the time to get back with him only to do him dirty some more. she really had a problem with me and and went as far as to lie about me to him. even though he knew she was lying. when i'd try to discuss it with him he'd turn on me. they aren't together right now but i bet if she wanted him back he'd drop everything just like that for her. he still wants to marry her. i gave up, we don't talk anymore because i don't believe you should let people take you for granted in the name of love. he says that i'm naive and don't get it but i think he's the one that doesn't get it. his money or plastic surgury hasn't bought him love or repsect. he stopped his friendship with me because of her. he just stopped talking to me out of nowhere and i believe it has to do with her. it's really hard because we have some of the same. friends.
