People Share The Moments That Ended A Friendship, Here Are The 30 Most Interesting Posts

It’s both a beautiful and sometimes sad thing that we as humans are constantly changing. This often means that our relationships also change with us. The result is that, over time, people we thought were close to us might end up showing their true colors.

Someone asked the internet “People who fell out with their best/close friend, what killed it?” and netizens shared their stories. From simply drifting apart, to huge disagreements and fights, all sorts of things ended up causing friendships to simply fall apart. So get comfortable as you read through, upvote your favorites, and share your own thoughts below.

People Share The Moments That Ended A Friendship, Here Are The 30 Most Interesting Posts Friends for 20 years. Helped her with rides, money, cloths ect. The first time I asked her for anything was after my husband had brain surgery and needed meds the local pharmacy didn't have. I couldn't leave him alone and could not take him with me so I asked her to watch him for an hour. She said no she wanted to go to the store with her bf.

I never talked to her again. And thank goodness she didn't have the balls to show up to my husband's funeral.

People Share The Moments That Ended A Friendship, Here Are The 30 Most Interesting Posts She adopted a pitbull, let it off leash immediately during the very first meeting with my dog, and her dog instantly attacked mine. Almost ripped her ear off. I had to literally beat the s**t out of that pitbull to get it to release my dog. My ex best friend just stood there screaming and did nothing. The next day she reported MY DOG to the county as the aggressor. Luckily my dogs vet vouched that she was a sweet, completely non aggressive dog. She also submitted evidence of all of the injuries my dog had, while the pitbull only had injuries from ME, when I had to beat it to stop it from murdering my dog. Luckily my dog ended up having her name cleared, but that instantly [ended] a 12 year friendship. I never spoke to her again

I feel bad for both dogs here :( The one who was attacked that's awful, I had my own dog, a small Bichon poodle, attacked by a German Shepard while I was at school. Thankfully my mom was home and got him out, and he thankfully was not very scratched up. Second, I feel bad for this Pitbull, they're actually big sweethearts and this dog was obviously poorly trained and unloved. The German Shepherds were our neighbors from the other cul de sac, and all though I don't trust them anymore, I understand that they're not taken well care of. They're ALWAYS outside, never groomed or cleaned, at least not often, would tear holes on the fences because of poor training and being stuck in a yard 24/7. Yet for some reason, after the obvious abuse those dogs are getting, and literal proof of them attacking my dogs, the sheriff and police didn't do anything and the neighbors never apologized. Instead they demanded that WE fixed the fence that THEIR dogs broke.

I think the owner's irresponsibility likely played a part on it if is true. It's very possible an adopted dog of any breed may have suffered abuse in the past or at the very least have some short term issues from having been in a kennels, so the first time she introduced it to a new dog should have been slow, and controlled. Off the leash it could easily be that other dog did something the pittie wasn't used to and thought it was going to attack.

My dog is majority American Bully mix. He would be liable to attack a new dog if an on-leash introduction went wrong. He is a rescue, and has issues with leash aggression towards other dogs (NO issues with aggression on humans). It’s never been a problem. Because we’re responsible dog owners. He doesn’t get close to dogs on leash if we can help it, and we are always there to pull him away or calm him. Off-leash he just ignores other dogs, but he is still always supervised. We have had one time where he tried to fight on-leash, with a friend’s pit bull, but we stopped it and the only injury was my dog’s (he was smaller, and the pittie was rambunctious and scared him. Bad match, but the friend wasn’t mad.). His other fight was entirely not his fault, when a neighbor’s pit bull ran out past the elderly dog sitter and attacked my dog and my dad on leash, completely unprovoked. Bullies aren’t bad dogs, but they’re big and strong, so they need to be trained and supervised.

We don't know which country this took place in. In quite some countries pit bulls are specifically held to attack. And the "attack" signal for them can be anything from letting them off the leash to a harmless word like "refridgerator"

But THEN she cheated on him and it led her to finally leave him. He acted like it was the biggest betrayal he'd ever faced and he couldn't understand what would make her do such a thing to him. Again, none of my business, but at some point i just had to ask myself if that's really the kind of person I wanted in my life.

Best friends for 12 years. She was a complete bridezilla.

Long story short, I was maid of honor and was expected to pay for multiple showers, ended up paying for part of her dress, and was asked to plan/pay for the entire bachelorette trip. I was in the process of building a house so I said no to the parties and trip (paying not planning/attending) and was swiftly booted from the wedding.

Funny part was, the guy had been cheating on her and she knew and told me she was gonna leave him. She didn’t. She cheated on him back. He found out while I was with them, they broke up. Couple weeks later I got a call they were engaged. So bizarre.

OP was honest enough to admit she was having a depressive episode and her friend/roommate was honest enough to state she couldn't cope with that depressive episode. Nothing wrong with either response. They were both upfront and honest and lived their own lives; they just lived them separately. Sorry, but OP is upset that she didn't get what she wanted even though getting what she wanted would mean her friend wouldn't get what the friend wanted. She would get "care", but the friend wanted to leave because they didn't/couldn't provide that care. It's not the friend's fault. This post makes OP seem like they themself is the problem, not the other way around.

She married an abusive husband.
Emotional and verbal abuse that I know of (including personally being present for the abuse), though she once left, before being married, because she was concerned he would hit her…

I tried so hard to be a safe space, but through a series of unfortunate meetings, I had to prioritize myself.

On a gentle note to others, I have had lots of great best friends, but growing up without a cellphone and social media being everything all the time, I have moved and changed, and previous relationships have naturally passed. And that’s OK. Enjoy the times you’ve had and the things you’ve learned.

He was working towards a philosophy major. He was becoming more conservative, I was becoming more liberal, he never wanted to talk about ANYTHING but philosophy and politics and he loved to talk. It became exhausting, I found myself dreading spending time with him because the conversation would be exclusively politics even if I explicitly asked to change the subject it would quickly come back.

Then COVID happened and we didn't see each other for a year. Then we just never reconnected and now it's been over 3 years.

In all honesty I believe having my kids ultimately sealed the deal.

I asked in the end if anything was wrong as it seemed as if they were ignoring me, got completely ignored and no invite to a bucks trip when everyone else in out group of 5 got one.

Sadly, I discovered I wasn't as important to HER as SHE was to me. She got married (maid of honor of course), had kids (was in the delivery room for both), and slowly got...side lined. I didn't think about it that much. She's married now, got these kids, this ahole...um....anyhooo....So I didn't think much of it. Till her high school bestie moved back into town for a minute. And she started having OUTINGS. WITHOUT THE KIDS. WITH HER. When she was too busy to even CALL ME! I was so HURT!

So one day? I just quit calling her.

It's been over 20 years, sadly.

We were arriving in a foreign city from different places, so at different times. She had the shortest distance to go and was the only one with a car.

When one friend’s flight time was changed and she was going to be stranded at an airport an hour drive away, the dumped-friend refused to drive out to get her. There was literally no other way for the stranded-friend to get to us, she was going to be stuck alone in a foreign city overnight with no accommodation.

We cancelled the trip because I refuse to entertain women who leave other women in danger when they can help fix it.

They were jealous when I got engaged to now SO. They got a bracelet vs me getting a ring. Wouldn’t commit to even coming to my wedding 10 mos away. She told me that SO and I wouldn’t last. I walked away. Didn’t tell her we were done, just dropped the rope so to speak. Ran into her right before her first divorce was final. Saw she’s now on marriage #3. It is sad because we really were best friends. But I could not deal with her jealousy. More the 30 yrs later SO and I are together. Better than ever. Looking back now she and I were drifting apart because our life focus was different. I was in college and she was pursuing a very different field. She’s done alright. I’m happy for her. Last I heard there was some jealousy over something else in my life. So I chose well to walk away.

They moved and stopping putting any effort into the relationship whatsoever.

I offered to go there, I offered to fly them here (they hadn’t secured work yet) and they never made time. They never reached out.

When I finally wrote and said it seemed apparent they’d lost interest in the relationship and I respected that but needed to move on rather than wait indefinitely, they refused to acknowledge anything had changed, and told me I sounded crazy. I asked why I hadn’t heard from them or seen them in a year and a half. No response.

Reality is subjective, as they say.

i was best friends with this person for almost 4 years. we were literally platonically married. it was always a 2-in-1 package deal, because EVERYBODY knew the other's number 1 (which was each other).

he, and two of my other really close friends, began spreading a rumor that i was racist and transphobic (with no proof). i lost almost all of my online friends because of it, and while i was crying over the entire situation every night, he was treating the whole thing like it was the funniest thing in the world. when my friend talked to him, he didn't take the conversation seriously at all.

and before anyone asks: no. i am not racist or transphobic.

A*****e wanted me who was barely affording to live where I was to save 2 - 3k to go to his wedding out of state. Wanted me to.pay for the suit, flight, lodging, food, and oh my gf wasn't allowed to come. Also wanted me to meet his female friends??? Told him couldn't do it and he blocked me on everything. Keep in mind this dude was making 100k plus, living with parents so not really paying rent. Also he told me 3 months before the date. Savings barely had $50 and with my bills I was barely making an extra $100 a month.

Other BFF tried to convince me to convince a mutual friend to f**k him behind his gfs back. Started date rape drugging others. Left fast af

Money. I lent her money for rent. She paid it back with a check that bounced. I had to ask over and over again for the money back. I finally got smaller checks from her that would cover the money she owed me over several weeks. I went to her bank on her payday and cashed the checks. If it had been $20, I would have let it go, but it was several hundred, and it bounced my checks. I never talked to her again after getting that last set of checks from her, and I'll never lend money I can't afford to lose again.

Friends for five years. I went to an internship that was required by university, and lived there, as commuting some 200+ km a day wasn't an option. During that time, he visited at my parents' place, hung out and played one of those old-ladys-card-games with my mother. Went to use the bathroom and stole her purse, including ID, driver's license and so forth, all in all doing about 400 € damage, a lot more than just the cash in it (fees, photographs, ...), when he knew he could have asked for help in order not to get evicted. Weirdly, even during these times, he was a faithfull believer in capitalism, even after being subjected to the coldheartedness of it. In order to maintain his lifestyle, he had stolen money from his workplace, had already messed up something prior to this that made them monitor him closely and consider him on probation, which was more than generous - caused 20 k€ of damage accidentally -, but didn't make him aware that him stealing would be found out about, so he got fired. Afterwards, he stole another 5k from his then political party, after having trasitioned from another party already due to ... issues - money was missing and nobody knew where it went. Chronologically: Damaged a few cars at work (the 20k damage stated above), stole a shidload of spare parts and documents (which ended his employment), got threatened to be evicted unless he paid his rent, money from party 1 went missing, he left and joined a kinda similar party, was elected treasurour for a regional branch, stole 5k there, was kicked out (but nothing else was done, they just accepted that he wouldn't be able to pay back any of it within reasonable time), walked over knowing I was elsewhere, and stole Ma's purse. Later, he got arrested for using public transportation without a ticket, and - to this day - is a faithful believer in law and order. He became a christian along the way, and "God has forgiven him what he has done", he said to me. Good for you, I replied, because I haven't and won't. Trust is broken, and that always breaks for good.

She went back to her alcoholic loser boyfriend who choked her. And she lied about going back too. Her excuse? He offered to smoke her out. “Free weed. Heh heh heh heh!” were her exact words. I’m not going to be friends with a junkie or alcoholic losers. I have given her money and help any time she asked. She has her own place and is safe on her own. She chooses to be with an abusive loser and makes up excuses about it. There’s more to it than that but it boils down to that. She’s a dishonest loser. I just always tried to see the good in her.

Friends growing apart due to marriage and/or children is sometimes understandable. It may not even by bad,you are just at a different phase in your life than the time you first met. I also have reservations about undying loyalty at all costs. No ,I will not back my friend if they are abusive towards the vulnerable people in their lives or are criminals. In fact as a friend ,I would rather try to steer them towards a better way to deal with their issues but I will move away if I can't help them.

I had a very very close friend for like 6 years. She got married, and nothing changed. I even became a good friend of her husband's too! Then she became pregnant, and I supported her as much as I could while being a college student and dealing with a chronic autoimmune disease. When she had her child, I was so happy for her and her husband! I knew we wouldn't be able to do the same things, but I didn't care. Finally, she told me one day "You're not truly tired until you have a child". Even though she knew I had severe unexplained fatigue. It hurt a lot. I'm sure she was tired too having a baby, but I've been exhausted for like half of my life and she knew that (there were more tiny things like this). Then she just stopped texting first. I stopped texting first after a few months, and boom. No more friend.

Came out as a lesbian to my best friend. Her comment was, "As long as you don't fancy me or my sister. I'm going to tell her not to let you babysit her girls anymore. I think you should go home". Thanks mate! Not spoken in over 20 years.

Years ago I cut off a very good friend because he could not stop interfering in my private life and that he thought he knew best. There was only so many times I could say stop trying to set me up with people before I erupted. Never spoken since and I don't intend to.

First "BFF" went to college, forgot I existed. Second "BFF" got married, moved away, never responded to any calls or emails. Final "BFF" emailed me to say she "wasn't interested in being friends anymore" a week after I got home from spending my vacation with her. No friends at all for me anymore. I'm done.

Friend since 5th grade at summer camp had apparently started disliking me summer of 8th grade but pretended to still be my friend for another year because they didn’t feel like they had enough friends to be socially strong if they ditched me.10th grade they completely stopped pretending to like me, but I’m autistic and not good at social cues or understanding when joking crosses into bullying, so I didn’t notice for several weeks of living with them in a tent. They would tell me to shut up because I’m annoying if I tried to talk. They insulted my interests and clothing, seemingly just because I liked it (i once put on a shirt I LOVED and was so excited to wear, and they said I looked like a pervy uncle and it looked like a trash bag). A friend of theirs started bullying me, and they supported it. I finally realized that we weren’t actually friends. They treated me like garbage, but they were vastly more popular than me, so no one stood up for me. They also faked disorders.

Still friends, but not like before. He got married and naturally we didn't include him in a number of activities. Caught up with him once and he said "Why did you all just abandon me?" Dude, you were the first one of us to get married and it was six years later, seven for me and eight for the last one. We were hitting the party scene that whole time. He stated he would have hung out regardless. I replied, the hell you would. We were hitting the club trying to get one night stands, strip clubs, etc. Everywhere you should not be at.

I was in a car accident that completely destroyed our only car. I hadn't been properly diagnosed for my anxiety, and needed a few days of time to myself, meaning no social media. When I came back online it was to several messages about how I was a terrible friend for not being online, and being blocked on all social media. It's been about ten years now.
