Friendship is one of the most beautiful things in life. There’s something comforting about having a buddy you care for with all your heart, who stays by your side through thick and thin. That’s also what makes ending a friendship so heartbreaking; but the actions of some people leave their friends with no other option than to cut all ties.

This topic was discussed by the ‘Ask Reddit’ community members after the user Titansentinal asked what’s something a close friend has done that instantly made the redditors hate them. The answers covered all kinds of unfortunate situations, from infidelity to betrayals, even physical violence, which burned all the bridges between the former friends.

Bored Panda has reached out to the redditor that started the thread. They were kind enough to provide some comments on the topic, which you will find below.

“That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever After being best friends from age 7 to our mid 20s I had to ghost this chick and our entire friend group, because she was trying to convince my husband to cheat on me with her. There had been several smaller things leading up to this, like telling me my husband was too attractive for me and would be better with her, but it blew my mind when he showed me the texts she sent, topless and telling him I'd never have to know. I ghosted her, then our friends started saying I should just forgive her, that I was choosing "some guy" over our 17yr friendship and that by not talking to her *I* was causing tension in our circle of friends, making them choose sides amongst themselves. So I said I didn't want to cause tension and I resolved the issue by removing myself from the entire circle of friends, they can have her. That was 17yrs ago and I still dont answer their calls and know I made the right decision. My husband and I would have celebrated our 20th last month (he died 5yrs ago tho)

I recently lost my best friend because of something similar. She actually put a move on him in person when I wasn't there. He came straight home and told me, I've never seen him look so uncomfortable before. She then proceeded to send him text messages threatening him that she would get me to believe that he had tried to put a move on her instead if he told me. I've never been so pissed in my entire life.

Reading it a second time she did. It was creating division within the group of friends. Which meant at least some of them were decent human beings who didn't like what was going on. Just a pity she had to cut them out at the same time as the rest.

My best friend brought pizza and her kids over to 'feed' my husband and our kids while I was across the country (lived in CA and was in FL) for my dad's funeral. She also then propositioned him while the kids were playing upstairs. She wanted to comfort him. My husband excused himself to the bathroom and called me in a panic because he had no idea what to do. I told him to give her the phone. We don't speak any longer.

    The Survey Center on American Life revealed that the majority of people in the US (49%) have three or fewer close friends, 36% of them state they have between four and nine. But no matter how many close friends you have, losing one is never easy. 

    The redditor u/Titansentinal opened up to Bored Panda that they’ve had to cut ties with an old buddy as well. “My old friend was being a real [jerk] to one of my other friends so I ended our friendship,” they said.

    And while there is no such thing as a recipe for the perfect companion, the OP added that “a friend should be able to joke around and not get offended about said jokes, a friend should also be able to hold a conversation, along with being just a cool person.”

    Lied about being raped by my best friend. I don't know why she did it but she destroyed his entire life with that one lie. He lost his friends, got banned in all clubs in our village, lost his job etc. because who would support a supposed rapist? Poor guy killed himself two months later. And before the question pops up why I know he was innocent. He was with me at that time it happened. About 643km(400miles) away.

    THIS OPENS MORE QUESTIONS: Did you testify? Did you speak up? Why were you not believed nor listened to? Why would your best friend be so utterly shunned on one person's testimony when there's you to counteract it? I'm not disbelieving you -- I have questions.

    Right, it becomes so much worse to even tell someone about it much less report it due to fear of not being believed all thanks to idiots who wants attention. I've only encounter one in the wild and it still pisses me off, the girl pretty much said: "well it made me uncomfortable so I could probably make it sound like r**e with mee2 being a thing and all" Nothing had happened except a drunk guy leaning on her a bit to hard after almost falling down.

    The alibi has to be spread around for a start. And bad news tends to spread faster than good. And once someone believes something is true it's actually very difficult to convince them otherwise. https://psychcentral.com/news/2018/09/23/why-do-we-believe-lies-even-after-they-are-proven-wrong

    Knew someone who accused a guy of raping her. She had no after affects what so ever. I didn’t believe her even though he was a scumbag I still think she lied for the attention. She never seemed upset or anything and never had an issue being around him or even being alone with him after wards.

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever He made a groupchat just for bullying people and invited me into it. I proceeded to watch this thing for a day and then decided to screenshot everything and give it as evidence to the victims. There was no talking to my friend about it anymore, believe me the shit that went down in that chat was that bad. It wasn't even just bullying but also stuff like doxxing. He threatened me but eventually knew he should shut up because he was already on thin fucking ice. Never will I just stay silent when I see bullying happen

    I've done the same; I stand up to bullies -it's innate and kneejerk at this point. I was not "popular" in school, but I made sure I was left alone. I didn't WANT the burden of popularity; it meant working at an image that pleased everyone. To me that was shallow and meaningless. There was too much happening at home that I had to hold myself above; then there was school, plus I was an introvert. So if I didn't please everyone, f**k them. But I would fight to keep my dignity and have peace.

    Being popular in school is about who you hang out with in most cases. I used to be really introverted but was always really social and have a developed skill of reading people after growing up in a very abusive household. For as long as I can remember I’ve always been with the “popular” group (and I’ve been to a ton of schools). All you have to do is spot the right people that seem nice, slowly easy yourself into their group, be nice and boom, you’re popular. There’s no pretending involved.

    In high school I was the rumor police. This was around the time cell phones were gaining real traction but before the iphone. If A talked bad about B I would pull out the old Nokia and call B and loudly say "Hey A is here and they have something to say to you." And then hold out phone to A, who NEVER takes the phone. I was so known for it that eventually I didn't even have to have the person's number, people just believed I had everyone's number. Lol.

    People think bullying general is a school thing, as you get older many overlook bullying. If you think about it bullying starts at higher levels governments/churches/other institutions. It would be great if bullying was made obscene to society but the sad fact is it's baked into what we accept. On a side note you bully me or mine you'll get a very loud and harsh verbal warning, you threaten me or mine you'll be running or one of us will end up on the ground. I don't accept it and will always be hardcore against bullying, while my responses to bullying may seem hypocritical it's a stand I take

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever A couple friends ghosted me when I needed them most. I was devastated when my husband of 27 years walked out & I became depressed. Before this I was always a “Life of the party” type who organized most of the fun outings. Once I was longer a constant source of entertainment for them, they started avoiding me. I admit I wasn’t as much fun to be around, but damn! I’d walked both of them through divorces, their family members severe illnesses (and subsequent deaths), and much more. Fair weather friends- best to fly away from them as well.

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever Had a friend through high school and beginning of college. Went to a small college with him. First day of class, we sit down, and theres ~20 people in the room. Everyone is around the same age, exept for one woman, who was about 60 and finally finishing her degree when she could afford it (we found out later). My friend turns to me and, in a relativly loud voice, says "why is she even here, she going to die soon anyways." Immediantly yelled at him and sat on the other side of the room, never spoke to him again. The anger I felt when he said that, holy c**p you guys.

    In one of my courses, there was an older man, well known in my country, who started the same year as I did. Why was he well known? He was accused of murder over a decade previous, and was back with the intention of studying law to better help himself. I didn't know who he was at first, until I was told his name. Some of my friends and I used to refer to him as Indy whenever we saw him on campus. He wore a hat reminiscent of Indiana Jones. That was 2009. Its still not known who actually committed that murder.

    Seriously, you'd been friends with him for years and one obnoxious remark or bad-taste joke (whether it was one or the other) was the end of it? He'd never said anything offensive before? I just find it hard to believe this obnoxious comment came completely out of nowhere after knowing him for several years.

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever Drove 17 hours to have sex with my fiance & mother of my child while I was in the hospital for a brain injury. They got engaged and he stole my family from me. 6 years later to this very day they ignore me and I barely see my daughter. She loves me though and I know she will want to see me when she has a choice. Edit: I just wanted to say thank-you to the mass amount of positivity. This has truly helped me with how I look at the situation... I started becoming desensitized to it all and accepting heart break.. I want everyone to know the one positive silver lining that came from this, and that's me getting to work in Film as an Actor and follow my dreams.. I have been doing small roles and playing small characters for a couple years now and will continue working hard and believing in myself and in my daughter. I am staying positive....but trust me I went through some extremely dark times and I'm lucky to be alive.

    I hadn't seen my daughter from 1985, when she was five, until 2008, because of a schizophrenic ex-wife, but I always knew my kid would find me. And in 2008, she found me and called. Found out she was a single mother with three kids, living with her grandmother, and no future. I put her through college and financially took care of her and my three grandkids. In the past fifteen years,, she got her master's degree in Clinical Psychology from ASU, teaches third grade, and we are as close as can be. And now I have three great grandkids! So hang in there buddy. She'll find you when it's time!

    I mean my opinion it's unsaid.... He lost everything he loved while he was in a very vulnerable position and didn't have the strength to do anything. Once he had the strength he'd probably lost the will (the will to do anything let alone fight the love of his life). It's not a TV episode this is someone sharing something with us

    I found out after the fact that (fairly close relative) dumped their two cats because they were moving and new apartment would not accept cats. Not to a shelter - just dumped off at random spot and drove away. And they even knew that my current cat is one I found starving (literally) that had been dumped in a similar manner and what I thought of that.

    If she gave the dog away to someone, I can understand. Sometimes those animals are kept in quarantine for months when they are transported to a new country or off the continent. That's not fair to an animal that has a short life. Now if she just up and left without finding the dog a new home...yeah...she's a witch.

    We have some of the strictest quarantine rules in the world but even here the actual time you'd be away from the pet is very short (10 days). https://www.petrelocation.com/blog/post/dog-travel-to-australia-how-long-is-the-quarantine I wonder if it was more a case of moving there without having a fixed residence lined up. Because it can be difficult to rent places that allow pets, and it can be expensive to move them. And of course she could just be someone who didn't really care about her pet :(

    I had to rehome my 2 cats when I moved from the countryside, with lots of fields and no big roads, to town with a main road right outside my apartment which had huge trucks going by all the time. My cats were used to be out as much as they wanted, killing mice and rats. They would have hated being kept inside all the time and I just couldn't do it. So I contacted the local pet charity and luckily they had a family on a farm who were looking for cats that were good hunters. My cats went to them and they love it there. I miss them a lot as I'm totally alone now but it was for the best.

Dude was my best friend for a decade and an ‘uncle’ to my daughter. Instantly hated him, haven’t spoken to him now in a longer amount of time than I knew him.

    Anytime someone you've been good to -- or have done no wrong to -- goes out of their way to do harm to you, there's jealousy involved. No matter how humble you feel about yourself, they're jealous of you and "bringing you down" helps them feel better about their sorry selves. It always ends good for you; bad for them.

Apparently she did this for a couple of years, I found out when I was grocery shopping and a random guy told me that he liked my pictures and wanted to hang out. I told him I never sent him pictures because I don't share pictures of myself on the internet, and asked him who was sending them. Apparently she was using a fake number, took me a week after to figure out she was doing it.

    How about the supposed friend (my husband’s best friend). He lost his wife in a horrible traffic accident. We were there through all of it. Helped with meals, helping the kids who were so lost, husband was one of the ushers at her funeral. She was a popular teacher in our community, so her funeral was held in the high school auditorium. Jump a few years later, he’s remarried. Neither hubby or I like her. We lost our home we were literally left homeless, lost one of our dogs, the other one didn’t live more than a couple months after the fire. He NEVER, NEVER, called us. My husband needed him to talk to, badly. He ran into my husband roughly a year later and had the guts to apologize saying he was so busy, he didn’t have time to call. So now he’s an ex friend.

    My ex is on husband number 5 and she never jumped ship before she had the next one on the hook. Her current husband is her sister's ex-husband. Like - they had an affair, he divorced the sister and married her. So they kind of deserve each other I guess. The whole thing makes me facepalm because my ex has some serious mental health issues. My excuse is I got fooled / blind sided by it. But he was married to her sister for 17 years and had lots of exposure to the crazy and disfunction and married her anyway. Relatives closer to the source tell me these days they more or less just tolerate each other. I think she has gotten too old / fat / too much baggage (and 10 kids of various ages) to just bat her eyes and pick up a new sugar daddy.

    In 5th grade, I went to Chuck E Cheese with a girl from my class. One of the "popular" girls had given me the other half of her "best friend" charm (this was a huge thing back in the day). Well, I was found out for hanging out with a less than popular girl and I was ousted from the friend group and made to return the best friend charm. Guess who they gave it to? Suddenly my Chuck E Cheese buddy couldn't give me the time of day now that she had my previously held spot. Bullying or avoiding people based on "popularity" was never something I did or would feel comfortable doing, so I didn't regret my actions, but it sure didn't feel good to be treated like that and then back-stabbed.

    This is why I don’t make new friends. You don’t know who to trust. It takes me a long time to let someone in. I had someone do this to me at a job. Been there 10 years. She had been there 1. She lied about me until I got fired and she got my job. A company car and a raise. Everyone who is still there says no one speaks to her anymore because she is just an evil back stabbing b****. Sleeps with anyone and everyone even though she’s in a “committed “ relationship.

    Yup. I feel that. Shortly after my wife and I got married, I found out she slept with my then best friend while we had been dating. I never speak to him anymore, and I haven't left her yet, as she's fairly codependent. But we're no longer intimate. And she has no clue that I know yet.

    Kept making up stories about herself. They were all somewhat believable in themselves (got pickpocketed at the mall, had a rude encounter with a clerk, tiny stuff like that) but weird s**t just kept happening to her like she was in a sketch comedy which made me very suspicious in the long run. Then in the end she refused to come to a concert with me and then broke into a long song and dance for it: They were crossing a busy boulevard and all of a sudden a guy high on weed rammed into them. Her friend bravely pushed her out of the way but got the full hit. With Godlike reflexes, she managed to take a clear picture of this guy's plates (in like 2006. might have been a flip phone) before heroically carrying her friend to the hospital nearby in her arms. The girl had to have one of her lungs removed and the nurses were too busy to care for her friend to like feed her and bathe her so she HAD to stay in the hospital with her. B***h please. If you don't wanna come to a concert with me, just f*****g say so. Pathological liars are the f*****g worst.

    I totally understand where you're coming from, this was my life with my MIL and SIL for 30 years. It was exhausting just trying to navigate what was real and that it I needed to know. I had to go NC with them because they were too destructive towards everyone else's lives. It's sad because my kids picked up on it much younger than I thought they would and they're sad that they were that way and just didn't love them like they acted like they did my husband's other sister's daughter. It breaks my heart for them.

    Had a friend in school who would embellish a lot, but we all knew, so we took things from her with a lot of salt. Kept in contact with her -- like, email or Friendster message two or three times a year kind of contact. Then she messaged me that she was in town with her girlfriend, and we should hang out. So of course I picked them up, and we went to Venice for the day. Oh my gods. Before this, I always thought stories about crazy tweakers were exaggerated, but holy s**t. They were trying to point out the FBI agents hiding in the trees and all kinds of insane s**t. The Invisible Task Force was definitely on them like white on rice. Don't do meth, kids.

Then he got out, drop kicked the guys window and ripped him out and beat him up all right there in the middle of highway 80. Damn bro, that's a bad a*s, totally believable story. Lol.

She then made a group chat of all of our mutual friends and would send photos of me in the office to laugh at my posture/physical attributes etc. I only found out because she messaged the wrong group chat.

    I could see someone doing that in a friendly way. Joking around with goofy photos. But, the key thing would be that you'd be in on them. The fact the group chat didn't include the guy says to me that it wasn't about sharing laughs it was about belittling the person.

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever Alot, but one time i asked if we were going to the carnival together with my other friends and she said “no, we are all too busy.” I went by myself with my mom. While there I saw her with my friend group. When she saw me she whispered to the others and they all tried to hide. I walked up and said hi and asked why they were there. Got s**t about it being a last minute thing. She would always do this; leave me out and ostracize me from my other friends

    Same thing. I asked my best friend if she wanted to come to a music festival with me. She said she was working so couldn't make it. Not only did she in fact go with other friends from our local pub but also with the man that had sexually assaulted me a few months prior. Needless to say the friendship ended that day. She tried reaching out about 2 years later to apologise because now she knows how I feel and 100% believes what he did as he assaulted her too.

    They were obviously talking about physical looks and they may very well be ugly on the outside. (I'm saying we don't know one way or the other) It happens, it's not a crime. But cropping them out due to looks shows an ugliness on the inside that is much worse. Also extremely shallow.

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever Was in high school but it still hurts me to this day when i think about it. I got my first bf and she was weirdly angry about it because she was the pretty one and i was weird and quiet. She told our mutual friends that she was going to go out to a party and seduce him and have sex with him just to hurt me. The fact that she said she just wanted to hurt me made me lose all the love i had for her. I later attempted to mend the bridge and attempted friendship again, didn’t last long. My prom date and her disappeared for several hours on prom night. Guess she achieved her goal.

Apparently one even said she was prettier than me therefore he must want to have sex with her. F#ck!ng b!+c#e$. I have no female friends anymore.

My last female friend 21 years ago had an affair with my husband. When I found out I moved out and he moved in with her. Not had a female friend since and now no male friends either. So 0 friends because I can't trust anyone anymore

    Drugged me at a rave (without my consent) and left me to die in a parking lot while he stole my laptop, some of my parents’ jewelry, and money from my home. In his defense, crack is expensive. Edit: To rephrase: A crack *habit* is expensive.

    I went out on a date with the cutest guy in high school. My vehicle - red flag number 1. We went to the Strip in Ft. Lauderdale. He bought a 6 pack of Budweiser - I was a highly functioning alcoholic - 1 st beer I opened but dumped half out. 2 nd beer he opened and halfway through I was done. I remember bits and pieces until I woke up at home the next day. He drugged me, ra***d me and then drove to HIS house and let me drive myself home. I called him and asked what happened the night before. Oh you don't remember? Nope but if I ever see you again you'll become the first human speed bump. I'm 55 and have never seen or heard from him again. His brother apologized to me. At least there's one decent human in his s family.

    I'd actually say she is more liable as she made a commitment to him but the so called friend did not. Ergo the so called friend is a dog (they'll take food from anyone) but she is beyond redemption and a disgusting subhuman. What will be funny is the fact that a person who does what she did will eventually do it again (this is why I find it amusing when this happens and thier new partner thinks this person won't cheat on them as if they're m9re special than the last 1 that was cheated on.

    I had a friend who grew up from modest means. He was a real nice kid and he worked real hard to make something of himself. He succeeded, got a dream job that made tons of money, and became a complete a*****e in the process. He started acting like he was better than everyone now that he was “rolling” in the dough, to the point where he was rude almost all the time. He could turn any conversation into how he was so rich and everyone else what a poor f*ck. I remember a friend of mine really liked a dining set that would go with her diner, so her husband got them for her for her birthday present. The first thing that came out of this guys mouth was “why’d you get these because they’re cheap as f*ck”

    I dated a real nice guy once. It was his (very well-off) mom’s birthday and she loved a certain expensive haircare brand (and I obviously wanted to make a good impression) so I bought her a little gift set of that brand that had some mini bottles of shampoo etc plus a cute little brush with a pretty pattern on it - although I did find it at Winners/Marshall’s. (IYKYK - I was 19 and really broke at the time and I was really proud that I could buy her the brand she liked even if it was super discounted and only cost me like $30) She gave it back to me the next day like “I honestly won’t use this, you might as well keep it…” 😅 my bf was mortified and I was so embarrassed. That was like 10 years ago and I still have the brush though, solid product lmao 👌

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever Long story short I helped her out when she got out of jail with somewhere to stay only if she promised to help with rent. 3 months later the police came and arrested her only to find out she was using me to keep her baby’s dad from seeing the child after the court gave them split custody Edit 1: when she reached out to me about needing a place to stay I didn’t know they had a custody battle going previously but I knew they had drama going on in the relationship. She was also the awful person in the relationships as she was always abusing OTC medication while staying with me and leaving the baby alone at the place when I would go to work so she would mess around with other guys (that’s when I called CPS) Edit 2: The father was not at all the s****y person here, I could tell because when they arrested her he was happy he had his baby back and told me he’s been trying to get ahold of her but no response and gave me a teary hug Edit 3: [here’s the article](https://imgur.com/a/yBfvubx)

    I think that depends on the ages. If it's an 18 year old dating a 17 year old it's fine. They're close enough in age that it's not problematic. If on the other hand there's a larger gap then yeah should report them. That said, the forwarding of nude pics (underage or not) is always problematic without the girls consent. I'd be letting them know it'd happened so she could take appropriate steps.

    Well that's a long prison sentence. The fact the guy knew they were underage means he is actually pretty evil as he openly went out of his way looking for them (this is called predatory and it's evil). I've seen those who have fallen into a situation (male and female adults) and admitted what they did was wrong even if the teen was comsenting because rhey know its still a child. Nut omg this person is actively hunting for this. What in the actual f..k? The difference between callous (this dude) and wrong mental state is very much a decider on what is evil vs what was wrong. This guy is evil to rhe core

Once you sent out a pic, you no longer control it. Then act all surprised when it gets out. Just like celebs who make sex videos and act all surprised when they get leaked to the internet.

But I also state that as long as thier beliefs aren't forced onto others or used to judge others than its cool, because at rhe end of rhe day what matters is if you try to he kind or not and if you can't be for whatever reason that you simply avoid it (I don't like compulsive liers or those who assume to tell others thier beliefs a more important and as such I avoid those people as best as I can because my tolerance for rhen is minimal and my abilty to tear then to shredswithout effort and with a smile for thier ways is massive (in this world where feelings are most important because your bad if you don't just sit there I can say I'm ok with being a bad person for confronting thier bs but it's also more peaceful t9 avoid them as well)

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever When i started to talk to her again after having a period of almost zero contact with her due to my family problems, she never really gave me enough attention aur space to state the reasons for my problems clearly and completely. One day my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer and my friend's response to this news was that I should shut up and stop trying to bore her with UN important information. I read and re read our text and came to realise that I had stated my problems very clearly and she was the one who took me for granted. She had some how changed from what I originally knew about her. I blocked and stopped communicating to her all together. Turns out my grandmother's cancer were actually gallstones that had developed from a very long time. I ended up keeping my grandmother closer to me and losing one woman who's loss actually made my life easier and mentally healthier

    One charming fellow had alienated much of the friend group via his self-centered behavior, constant self-involvement, and superpower for avoiding any responsibility for his own actions. He was on a bit of a 'time out' with me -- you know, when you need to cool down before you can re-engage with someone. Well, one day he decided that his friends hadn't adequately celebrated his birthday, so he let himself into my sister's house and stole a bunch of her stuff. As 'birthday presents'. Aaaanyway, dead to me.

    Laughed to me about how he was glad his roommates cat was dead because he hated it. Let me explain, the roommate didn't realize the cat had hopped into the washer and so he turned it on. As you can imagine when he went to take out his clothes he found the cat..erm not alive anymore. He thought it was hilarious, and then said, and I quote "stupid thing always bugged me, f*ck that cat, got what he deserved. Can't believe it drowned, how funny! Now my dog will be happy." To be clear the cat was rarely aloud out of the room as it was a temp situation, which I found to not be fair because it literally did not bother the dog at all. It was a bit too much phyco and lack of empathy for me to deal with.

    She asked me to be her bridesmaid. During the bachelorette party, which was across the country at her family’s lake house, she had the biggest temper tantrum I’ve *ever* seen. She’s surrounded by all her friends, but having this horrible tantrum, insulting everyone, and when she decided it was my turn: “You’re just my California friend.” I don’t don’t travel much, but I didn’t take time off work and sit on a plane for hours to endure something like *this*. She asked my forgiveness the next morning but wouldn’t own what she said to me. I asked her how she wanted me to forgive her if she couldn’t apologize? I didn’t go to the wedding.

    Fell through their trampoline net with their sister (aka a hole was ripped) landed on my neck and I was paralyzed for 5mins and had severe bruising in my neck and all they were concerned about was their trampoline and how I ruined it. I was like 12, scared that I would have to buy them a new trampoline over an accident, and felt hurt and betrayed that she hadn't cared that I could have broken my neck. I cut her off completely, my sister was still friends with her sister though. Im glad I moved away from being her friend because she was mean to other kids and I was picking that up. Now shes a frigid b***h who wishes her annorexic sister would die so she wouldn't be embarrassed by her.

    Dude, I actually have an interesting story, but I'm going to tell it in a super short way. My friend proposed to leave her husband and run away with me, because she thought I was into her. When I said no, that I only saw her as a friend, she went back to her husband (who was also my friend) and said that I had manipulated her. She said a lot of things. Then I lost both their friendship.

    Was a high school friend and I have since gained way more life perspective so it doesn't bother me anymore I am an overly analytical type, kinda sorta always have been. Had a close friend in high school who would repeatedly fabricate rumors about me and then would play the "nice guy" and let me know what he heard, etc. It led to annoying moments where I then took extended periods of time or unnecessary head space for these rumors wondering if who I was genuinely rubbed people the wrong way and it made me slightly insecure about who I talk to and how I talk with people. Eventually one of these rumors was about a family friend I saw a ton and it 100% didn't add up so I asked that friend and yeah... never happened. I then talked to other people he brought up and again yeah... same. Never confronted him about it, just cut him tf out and moved on to preparing for college and doing my extracurriculars/after-school job. Later as I became a counsellor in college, basically realized that it was pretty much a textbook example of friendship narcissism.

    Ugh... sounds a bit like one of the kids in kindergarten my oldest girl misses (she just started pre-school). Whenever he hangs out with my daughter he tells her that she is not allowed to play with anybody else (than him) and when she does anyway he gets so angry that he gets violent and he has (according to my girl) hit her and kicked her and told her some, imo, pretty sick stuff that he hoped would happen to her. She keeps on missing this boy because, in her words: he's fun to play with. I am so scared what he'll eventually turn into but also pretty worried what my daughter may end up accepting in a relationship when she's grown up. 😕 I do my best to let her know that nobody should ever decide who she is/is not allowed to play with (which is hypocritical since I do not want her to play with him). I know the boy comes from a troubled home... but it is not an excuse, imo. I hate that I feel like this about a child. But it makes me angry when he's hurting my girl!!!

    Well, that's a reality check. I imagine George Costanza, wryly shrugging his shoulders and saying "That's that." Some things should be "George Costanzaed." (Seinfeld)

    we had a monthly card game, nothing crazy, $20 buy in. he'd get loaded but would usually do well. until he went to go p**s and forgot about the stash of extra cards in his seat that he'd been sitting on. a*****e had been cheating. who TF cheats in a friendly game with friends. we just stopped having game nights after that. its been a few years. we still get together occasionally but its not the same. I haven't told him why, i don't think he remembers doing it.

    A friend of my dad did this exactly, got caught sitting on cards. First time, they gave him the benefit of the doubt. Second time, see ya. What was sad was he was literally a millionaire. Ostracised himself for about 60 quid.

    I have a friend who is a contrarian. Specifically with me though. Now I don’t mind when someone disagrees with me, everyone has different tastes and perspectives, but it seems like this guy just can’t wait to disagree with me just to do it. It’s almost like he can’t get the words out fast enough. It’s the way he does it that makes me believe that he’s targeting me/doing it on purpose. Let’s call him Tim Example: I say “yeah I like the chicken here” Before I can even finish Tim “the chicken is so Mid here” He’s not even really acknowledging my opinion then giving his. It’s more like he’s just letting everyone else in the group know he doesn’t agree with me in the most passive aggressive way possible. And that’ll happen 4 Separate times within the same conversation.

    DUDE! He's gaslighting you and putting you down in front of your friends in the group. DROP that guy. Or, conversely, start really f*****g with him. You: "I really like that chicken" Him: "That chicken's really mediocre" - You: "You know what? You're absolutely right. I hate it. " Do that several times in a convo - wink at everybody else and say, solemnly "Thank you for leading me down the path of good taste. What WOULD I DO without you to guide me.?" Guarantee he blows a gasket. People like that also have no sense of humor and, as much as they like making fun of you -- they HATE to feel made fun of and have no defense against it.

    I had a friend like that. Took the opposite side of any argument on principle and went out of his way to pick fights and start arguments. He is insanely jealous of anyone who has their life even vaguely together while his contrarian ways (& refusal to back down on anything) has completely messed up his own. Now, in his late 50s, this contrarian behaviour has cost him his house, his marriage, his job, and he has fewer friends as each day passes. He lives back in our hometown in a crappy rented flat and is largely dependent on his family since no one else will give him the time of day. A bitter and resentful old man railing at a world that hasn’t got any time for his b******t.

    I knew a guy like this - major gaslighter. Sometimes I would look at him and say 'the sky is blue" just because anything anyone said he would be contrary to --- never felt so good to not have a person in my life

    Contrarian people are major a$$goles to be avoided. Their behavior isn't funny or cute and many of them do escalate to full on gaslighting. The fact that he goes out of his way to disagree with you about literally everything and is putting you down in front of your other friends is a red flag.

    I wouldn't say hate, but trying to start a faux relationship with your friend because you need someone to bring home the bacon for you and your unborn child, and then telling said friend to just "die alone" when they politely decline (fully knowing said friend is seriously struggling with bouts of loneliness) doesn't spark joy.

    “That Was 17 Years Ago And I Still Don’t Answer Their Calls”: 30 Heartbreaking Things Committed By Close Friends That Broke People’s Trust Forever My really good friend basically told me that I was “lucky” that my dad died in comparison to his situation where he disliked his mom and wished she was dead. Never spoke to him again.

    I have said something similar, I said "you're lucky you had a good relationship and you can remember your mother with good memories, in contrast to mine". Do you think it's insensitive? 🤔It's difficult for me to imagine how people with good relationships with their parents feel, especially since I know they don't get my situation either.

    That's not similar, that's exactly opposite. You may have been slightly insensitive (depending on the timing of that statement) but you were acknowledging a positive with longing but not envy. OP's friend was definitely excessively insensitive, envious, and downright cruel.

    Again, context is needed. Why did the friend dislike mom? How did op's dad die?

    Had a friend borrow money for a drug debt. 6 months later, I had to threaten to go to his parents and tell them exactly what he owed me money for. Amazing that he could suddenly afford to pay me back.

    Had a “friend” who did this to me several times before I finally gave up on them. I tend to be a soft touch for those who are struggling, but to keep doing it? Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, bubye..

    I had the exact same thing happen except I think it was a 1/2 inch socket. Never let the leech borrow anything after that.

    If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career.

    I wouldn’t laugh too much. My pastor has a storehouse of crazy people stories. He knew a family that got into a years long feud because of an argument over how to load the dishwasher. He also told me of 2 of his parishioners who got into a fist fight over who was going to answer the phone when Grandma died. People are nuts sometimes.

    He added my crush into a group and exposed everything i said about her. Ungrateful prick also ignored whatever i did for him and sent his boyfriend after me who is like 3 years younger than me then proceeds to tell him everything he knew about me.
