    When you aren't getting anything from it anymore. When all you talk about is the past. When it doesn't feel good to be around them anymore. When you argue more than you get along.

    Friendships die just like romantic relationships do however many people feel a friend is for life. If you are not comfortable with the person and don't really like them anymore, why stay friends? If you would break up with a gf/bf because of certain behavior why keep a friend who does the same things?

    When the friendship becomes one-sided. If one person is giving more than the other or if one friend is abusing the others kindness. Or simply if either party just no longer values the other person's friendship or wants to be friends. The last reason sounds terrible, but it's better that than to keep being friends with someone you don't really want to be friends with.

  • Friendships never have to end. ;) But a time when you maybe would end a friendship is when your friend is being rude, or lieing, or not being that same friend that you like ;)

    Why would you end your friendship?! If she is a bad friend tell her the reason and end it

    when either you see how bad of an influence your friend has over you (friends are suppose to make you a better person not bad)

    when you make plans and you cant depend on them to actually follow through (lots of experience in that)

    when they make you feel self concience of yourself

    when you can no longer depend on them to keep your secrets or be there for you

    when you see them constantly lying to other people, (i had a friend who was so good at coming up with lies and i saw her do it million of times to other people and it made me think, wow she lies so easily i wonder how many times he has lied to me)

    when you found the end of the circle(:

    just kidding

    probably when you know your friend is drifting apart from you and treating you a lot differently.
