Outgrown another friendship

I used to be able to make and keep friends pretty easily, never gave it a thought.
Now a friendship of 30 years or more is just not working out. Every meetup is in a pub which serves vile food and I drink too much. It feels sad but I have to let it go I suppose.Nothing in common, no joy.

Have you told your friend how you feel? Maybe you can arrange to meet somewhere that doesn’t involve a pub and alchohol.

How do you feel about the friendship in general?

Anything apart from the local crappy pub feels like very hard work.

It's sad, but that's it.
