How to ditch "friends" (light hearted)

2 replies

HappyOnMyOwn · 19/08/2017 13:17

I have made two mummy friends since becoming a mummy myself. One of which I sort of knew before I was pregnant but we've spent more time together since we both had babies.

The thing is I'm fed up with them both.

I don't want to put too much detail in case either one of them goes on Mumsnet, but over the months I have realised I don't like either of them very much and I want to distance myself now. They showed their true colours recently when I had an injury and was in a lot of pain. Neither of them could be arsed to come and see me just once. I would have loved the distraction of a visit while I was stuck at home. There are other reasons why I have gone off them but like I say, I won't go into too much detail.

So how do I ditch them kind of subtly? I don't want to say outright that they annoy me and I don't like them anymore. Any thoughts?

I put them on restricted FB list, stopped texting or messaging them and kept my replies short, you know type of replies that kill conversation.

And breath a sigh of relief when they delete me of FB as then I don't feel awkward

Just stop messaging them or have excuses as to why you can't meet up. Sorry about your injury op, hope you're feeling better.
