    The worst thing is when you miss your ex-friend but contacting this person is impossible because they changed and the person you miss doesn't exist anymore.

    1. There is a miscommunication. 2. They are too busy, but still make time to be with you. 3. Both of you want to work things out, but are too embarrassed to start. 4. Outside influences don't approve of the friendship. 5. Your friend can still bring you joy and make you laugh. 6. One of you is moving ahead in life but you still connect with one another. 7. Their success makes you jealous but also motivates you.

    You can still be a really good person, and your 'friends' will still leave you. Trust me I know.
  • It's hard when y'all get along well , but you have nothing in common and you run out of things to talk about as the years go on :/
  • @yamiben64
    when you instantly start thinking about a certain friend you went through much trouble with o-o
  • @bbmaruchan
    I had a really nice friendship, idk what happened and my friend turned as a strange person with my secrets...
  • Sometimes you don't want to end a relationship, and it just sort of falls apart. It used to be good but it ends anyways. Those are the most devastating.

    We're all thinking about that friend who is now a stranger with some memories :<
  • @greatwavefan397
    Ever had a "5-Minute Friendship"? I have. It's with that random person whom you connect to much more deeply than everyone else around. You might've even wanted their number... However, you never see that person again.

    I get jealous when my friend likes another friend over me..
  • @sage416
    i ended it because he’s ungrateful. he replaced me. this person used to call him weird and make fun of him and now they’re literally best friends. i was falling into a deep hole and he didn’t care. i’m doing better now but i don’t think i’m ever gonna give my all to someone anymore.

    Since everyone is thinking about someone, here's who I thought about: - cried various times expressing how jealous she felt about me having other friends - told me she hated seeing and my boyfriend together - after I broke up with my BF, she told me she thought he was atractive - copied many things I did, including buying the exact same thing as my childhood best friend and I bought as "a friend's thing" - kept saying "it's all in people's head" about mental illnesses and issues, and she does want to be a brain doctor - would hang out with people I had reasons not to hang out with and left me I'm the corner (this happened like 4/5 times, not as much as the rest on this list) - found a new friend and started to be rude at me, and when noticed I had nothing to lose there, she insulted me in front of some other students that took it as a joke that time Also Turns out she was very self conscious about being overweight, wanted to try new styles of clothing and try new things but was too jealous of me to tell me. Besides that, I later found out she is most likely bisexual but her parents are extremely homophobic and there's no way she would ever come out. I was then told that she might have had an obsession (not crush, really an obsession) over me and since I never noticed she wanted to be more than best friends, she got pissed off and tried to make me jealous, but turned out to be just really mean and I left. BESIDES THAT, later I found out she also wanted to make out with her new friend, and I hope she isn't obsessing over someone again, because that was really unhealthy for both of us. It stunted our growth. I can't express how much I've grown after leaving this relationship, and I've been told that girl has been changing as well, I hope for the better! Stay safe and take care everyone!!

    There’s so many different ways friendships can end, but each give us experience and help us grow. I’ve personally dealt with toxic friendships, and they have been difficult to let go, because you are made feel significant. These type of “friendships” have changed my outlook on myself and others. Its made me wiser, but it’s also made it hard to trust others. All in all, I’ve grown from it, but it’s still painful to look back on the memories, And realising how easily manipulated you are/were. It leaves a lasting impact that takes time to heal.

    I had a friendship that fell apart a couple months ago, we started to talk less and I felt like she was becoming a stranger. It was difficult bc we were sharing a dorm together at the time so I would see her everyday but we didn’t talk as much as we did back in high school. Every time we would talk, we could only talk about the past and old memories. I felt like towards the end, we both completely stopped putting in the effort and eventually over time, I didn’t see her as someone I was close to anymore. It still makes me sad that our friendship ended but I think deep down there were some underlying issues that were not resolved in time or people just change in general.
  • @prarthana7365
    Lost all my friends over a miscommunication, worst part is they won't talk things out and wanna end the friendship completely. And now I'm lonely
  • @QueenZsWorld
    this is so necessary. I will not end my friendship with myself.
  • @ea1013
    when you're so early there are no jokes about depression and no one has unnecessarily disliked
