How can I phrase this?

Question

I need to say this..but I don't wanna end it in a preposition.
Basically, the sentence needs to say, "another example is someone i used to have to be around"

Answer 1

Another example is someone with whom I used to have to spend time.

Answer 2

Some good answers so far.
You have to use different words to avoid massacring your sentence, which would end up (if you used the current wording):
"Another example is someone around whom I used to have to be." Needless to say, that doesn't work.

I hate that rule about not ending a sentence with a preposition.
It makes sentence structure so awkward at times.
That is one rule up with which I will not put!

Answer 3

That in itself isn't a complete sentence- I mean, the "Another example is someone I used to have to be around."

But, you could make it a complete sentence. For example:

Someone I was formerly friends with is another example of a person whom has had influence on my life.

Answer 4

Someone I used to have to be around is another example of..... ??

Answer 5

"Someone whom I had to spend time with, as another example"

If this ends with a preposition, then I'm sorry, I don't think there's a way you can do that.

Answer 6

someone I used to have to be around - kill the phrase entirely.

Are you trying to say, someone I knew or someone I used to spend time with?

Answer 7

Another example is a former acquaintance.
