If you're that unhappy being best friends with this person because of their personality traits, just don't hang around with him as often as you do, and find other people to hang around with, thats better instead of saying "Hey, I don't wanna be your bestfriend anymore" because that's just hurtful to any person.
The case might just be that your hanging around with person far too much, and sometimes you see sides to them that you don't particularly like, but after a while of being apart, you might eventually wanna be back hanging around with him.
If you don't think he cares then he won't care if you go off with other people and hang around with them, and you can find a different type of friendship more suited for you.
Everyone has their bad points, not everyone realises that, and sometimes people need to be told, and if you feel that he needs a nudge on where hes going wrong, then just tell him, sure it might hurt but he might understand where and how it all went wrong for him.

I did exactly that - after 17 years of friendship! We met when we were 17 and at the age of 34 I cut her out of my life. It hurt like hell initially - just as much as losing a boyfriend. But she did some unforgiveable things and after a lot of heart-searching I just got rid. That was more than five years ago. I still think about her and occasionally she crops up in my dreams - but I've no regrets - I did the right thing. Remember, you have to be a friend to have a friend and if your friend isn't right for you, it's time to move on.

You can dump your best friend.
Friends should be happy to be together otherwise there is no point in being best friends.
Look at yourself & question the things that you do first as you may do things that cause your best friend to be the way they are with you.
You can ask your best friend what you can do to make him/her change.
Tell the person the points you dislike & resolve the issues.
I can tell you that you are lucky if in your life you have 5 best friends.
You will do anything for a best friend & they will do anything for you.

I think you should disassociate yourself from him. If he is a bad friend, and tires you out, then yes you should. I understand what it's like having to do that, that you feel bad about dumping them, but if you just can't stand to be around them, I think life will get easier when he's not around.

well done!! youre doing the right things if you think that they are trouble.
easy really, just find another friend and start to communicate with him. start to go out a little more with your new pal and this trouble arragant one will get the pic.
or find yourself a female friend and start friendship with her.
or you can tell him the truth, start an arguement and all kicks off

friendship can never be broken. n u know what in today's world u r known with ur company so never make a person who is self centered, arrogant in nature. So if u can first try to talk to him . only then can u know if the person really deserves ur friendship.

Do It. If nothing good comes out of your friendship, and he's really all you say that he is, then by all means drop him and find a new best friend.

Why did he/she become your best friend in the first place? If he/she's really all that, well, you've got to confront him/her about it. Talk over it. Don't just dump him/her yet.

i imagine you can dump your best friend.but first i would explain the side of them you dont like because it might work the other way around you never know.if not just distance yourself for your own good.you dont need negativity.
