Let me know when you find out! I'm dealing with the same thing. This woman and I really *want* to be friends but we just can't seem to communicate or there are misunderstandings. What I figure is if you both desire to be friends, keep working on it. Try to make changes. Do new things together (start a new hobby). Get out of your comfort zones and develop yourselves more. If only one of you wants to be friends, you might need to end it. I think the pain goes away faster if there is some kind of closure and you wish each other well. But keep trying if you both want. Eventually it'll work itself out. That's what I'm doing. Good luck!

I have to ask why you would want to end a friendship. If you are just friends, where do you want it to go? If it is about someone you are dating, then it could take a while for the pain to go away.
Last time I got burned it took about 5 years.

Why end a friendship, especially if you think it'll be painful? One can just be friends until it fades or you go different ways. Don't end a friendship just because it doesn't seem to be furthering.

im not quite sure if your talking about someone whose freindship your having difficulties with or if you are talking about when someone is your freind and you like them and they dont feel the same way..
if its the first one i can help you out. i have a freind--and i want to discontinue my freindship with her because she is causing problems in my group of freinds who she is not that close with
ive been freinds with her since kindergarten and its really hard now because there are functions I have that i dont want to invite her to but i have to
me and my freinds have been having difficulites trying to politley stop inviting her to our functions..she doesnt go to our school and she has freinds at her other school-she causes alot of drama
basically...(before i keep rambling) it takes time. pain to go away ALWAYS takes time--whether its a physical pain or an emtional pain. if you NEED to end the freindship, then you need to do it. make a pro/con list of the person (i know it sounds crude) but it really works. is this freindship worth saving??
if its not..dont initally break off things just casually stop calling them to hang out and stuff
but if you want to save it, just give it some time. people always come around.
i hope that helped
