Has anyone every had to walk away from their very best friend of years and years? Can you lease share your story?

I have had the same best friend for 43 years...could not ever imagine my life without her...

one of my x's chased one of my best buddies, knowin this would piss me. he fell for it so i wrote him off.!!!!

Yes I did, was friends with him since Junior high school used to hang out a lot. Till he married this girl that i didn't get along with an she didnt like me. well short story he passed away last year at age of 36 an i never got to see him or anything before that. sometimes i regret not looking him up again. but he still an will always been a friend

I was in the army with a guy for 3 years. He ended up being my best man when I was married.

I found out after we had been buddies for 7 years that he had been beating up, and stalking his girlfriend.

I had to tell him that we weren't going to be buddies anymore, cuz I can't handle that. I have kicked guy's asses for doing it when I bounced, and I was not going to tolerate in a friend.

I walked away from my best friend after discovering she was a compulsive liar... everything she told me was a lie; the way her father died, the amount of money she made so much more... at first it was petty things but then it became much more serious. It was so hard for me to let her go, but she wouldn't tell the truth to save her friendships or in the end her marriage as well.

My so called best friend started flirting with a guy I had been talking to online. She couldn't believe I would believe a total stranger over her but he had saved the messages and he forwarded them to me. Oops....I guess if you are going to lie-make sure to cover your tracks. My life for the most part has been DRAMA FREE since I rid myself of her. It was the best thing that ever happened to me!

so sorry shadow.!!!

Thank you, I just ended a 7 year friendship as she had a very bad tragic thing happen in her life. I was there for her and her family as much as I could be but they didnt think it was enough so I had to walk away, Very sad!

thanks Seahawks an i saw u peeking

I actually had to walk away from a very good friend. As all women know there are unspoken rules that you don't cross with women, well she crossed that line. She actually crossed the line with our other best friend...the crappy thing was we were all together at her house for a "get together" and we took off but Miss C made a move on Miss J's man.
Now let me just make one thing clear, no-one owns anyone! BUT when your friends know that you are dating someone, its just out of respect that you don't cross that line. Well Miss C ended up doing some things with Miss J's man and ended up telling me about it. I didn't say anything to Miss J about it, I figured that Miss C would end up messing up and telling her in the end. She did!!
So, our friendship did end with Miss C because we could not trust her around any guys that we brought around. It seemed like every time she got alcohol in her, she would make a move on them. So needless to say...the friendship ended. Honestly, I don't want friends that can't be trusted! NOR do I want a guy that is so easily tempted by a trampy woman

Yes. Friends for 20 years. Just realized recently that we've drifted far enough apart over the past few years, that there is no turning back. We have gone down different paths, although I accept it, it doesn't change the hurt.

but as for friendship im best friend with my ex bf of 10years an i dated a guy for 5 months who im still friends with. i will never pass up those two friendships for anything

Like I said I just ended a 7 year friendship as she had a very bad tragic thing happen in her life. I was there for her and her family as much as I could be but they didnt think it was enough so I had to walk away, Very sad! It is hard when something tragic happens and it ends the relationship.

Well, My dog will always be my best friend lol

i walked from a best friend and who i called brother for about 12 years. we met in high school when i was a junior and he was a sophmore. we hit it off and became great friends. after high school we started hanging out smoking and doing other things together. where you found me or him the other was not far behind. he got me in the first real trouble i ever got into. we came out fine, and years started going on. for 6 years we flipped between him living with me and me living with him. i got married and after about a year he moved in with me and my wife. they started fighting and he moved out. time goes on and i wind up moving back in with him about 2 years later with my ex, we both move out and i left my wife. i disappear for about 5 monthes, come back and find out that ever since we split and possibly before, my ex and my so called best friend were screwing each other. every weekend she was at his house sleeping in his bed. real brother he was.

It has happened to me over and over. (However, I still have best friends that I have known for +20 years.)

The breakup of a best friendship is worse in a lot of ways than the breakup of a romantic relationship.

I still regret my stupidity that led to the loss of several best friendships when I was a kid, and several as an adult.

My best friend through junior high accused me of stealing from her in high school when we shared a locker. I never talked to her after that, even though she apologized. I was a f!ckup and I wish I could have done things differently. I did try to make things up to her once (when I was drunk) and ended up talking to her mom; my attempt didn't go anywhere and perhaps it was just as well. yours in Chaos, Scarlett

sorry bro.!!!!
