Cutting ties

[PerkyOchrePeer]

I have just cacti's in the nicest possible way with somebody I considered to be a friend of mine. She had become quite distant never told me anything that was happening with her never tried to arrange to meet me so I gave her the opportunity and to get out by saying let's leave it until we're both less busy and she said I think that's for the best.

What I understand from that is that she doesn't want to keep up the friendship but she's too polite to see and from her reaction I don't think we are ever going to be contacting each other again because she doesn't behave like a proper friend so that's that and a friendship. If she was genuine she would have said sorry I'm so busy didn't even say that

In my honest opinion if you've only got one or two really good close friends you are much better off than four or five friends who couldn't really care less about you and I just superficial

Sounds a prickly situation.

No it was quite straightforward. She didn't want to maintain the friendship and she was only being polite so I have more or less ended things by saying we are both too busy to keep anything going here.

I have got other closer friends so I can tell the difference between her and somebody else who really wants to maintain friendships so that's the end of that I really haven't got the energy or the time or the inclination to try and pursue a friendship that's already dead

Yes let her go. Was it long friendship? I find people flaky now I just dont bother. Plans took weeks to sort. My circle small now prob 3 max.

🤣

Yes known her a few years. People change as time goes by. We hardly have anything in common anymore and dont mix in the same circles. I was always there for her but i felt she would not be there for me in a crisis. Thats why i had to let the friendship go. I think we both realised it wasnt working and one of us had to do something. Ive ended the friendship in a way that leaves the door open but we both know or at least i know thats never going to happen. We have not argued or fallen out. We have just drifted

Yes things drift.. if you havent much in common there no point. I met a school friend last year took her weeks to commit. I just thought friendship shouldnt be this hard work. It fizzled out this year.

Yes no point trying to pursue something that doesn't work too stressful in my opinion
