We've all had best friends growing up, well, maybe not The Imortal!, but, as time goes on, "stuff" happens...

what are some of the reasons, you, or your best friends, stop being friends with each other?

One friend of mine, Jared, growing up we were awesome friends, all the way up till we were 21....

then, Dave Chappele came out with his show on Comedy Central, and the infamous "Lil John" skit happened, and the friendship Jared and I broke apart...

all he did was the "yeeeaaaaahhhh" line over and over again.... every place we went, he would shout that... out at clubs, driving around the city, or just hanging out eating tacos... after three months of this, and him embarassing me at a bar by doing that infront of two girls, I just said "enough man, your not lil John, and your not Dave Chappelle, it's a funny skit, but not a funny line to be saying every 5 minutes... " and I left the bar.... never called him back, and he never called me back... it's been 4 years now...

so there you have it, Chappell Show ruined 10 years of friendship.....
 
:funny: You should call him and just say "yeeeeeaaaahhhhhh" and hang up.
 
People grow apart. At one point, you find yourself making friends thanks to a shared interest or two, but when that shared interest is gone, if there's nothing else, then it's not going to last.

This.
 
but, growing apart is different for every situation... my case being or sense of humor... Yeahhhhhh over and over again, not my cup of tea...
 
In your case, maybe your "shared interest" was "not being alone in school". I dunno.

Nope, not the Chappell show to blame.....your buddy just never grew up.
 
I was friends with this guy for years. We were very close because we both hated school and hated everyone there. We used to hang out so much, we were like a married couple or something, minus the fighting. Before the summer he stopped making contact with me and another friend of mine did the same. I would see these two hanging out all the time without me. The part that killed me is, this other friend had a bad life. I took him in for xmas, birthday or anytime he was feeling down. My family welcome him and treated him like a son. So 1 friend who I hung out for years and was almost like a brother to me and this other guy who I've helped basically started to ignore me.
I know why. I began filming with this other guy and we got on pretty well. I always invited my friends to join us filming, but always said no. I guess they got jealous because it were pretty evident over the months. It was very childish, so it's better I'm that I'm not around that anyway.
 
HAHA sorry man but that's hilarious. YEEEEEEEEEAH!!!!

I'm still good mates with my best friend, we've know each other since we were 6 years old.
 
Story time!

Me and these 3 other guys used to be real tight-knit over the 3 or so years that we went to high school together, specifically this one friend that began going to the school around the same time I did. Because we were both "new kids" we kinda stuck together until we became familiar with the rest of the crowd, but even then we migrated towards the same group of people. Really cool kid. Had the same interests and smartass/a-hole personality that I had. We were pretty much inseparable over the 3 years we went to school together - always a eachothers houses and always hanging out at the same spots during weekends.

He had a girlfriend for a good chunk of the time that I knew him. She was ok at first, but eventually she developed a real skank attitude, barely ever acknowledged me and my other friends if we were around, etc. Really disliked the *****, so it got to the point that I encouraged him to talk to other girls hoping he'd drop his girlfriend at the time. Never worked. One day he shows up to class and tells me about how he passed by his ex-gf's job the previous night after going a few years without seeing her (they dated through middle school) He's talking this girl up. She's so cool, she looks great, all that good stuff. I tell him to go for it, basically telling him that he should drop one for the other. He says he has to give it some thought, but that he's seriously considering it.

A week or 2 later, he introduces me to this girl. Cool chick, super friendly. We're over her house and them 2 have some heavy flirting going on, but when she goes in to kiss the kid he denies her.

"You know I can't. Jump on Danny."

Um, what? Now you have a girlfriend and won't give into this girl's advances?

Sure enough, she makes my lap her home for the rest of the night. He finds it hilarious, but the more the 3 of us hung out the less funny it became to him. Basically, the girl wanted to hook up with me. I'd go to her house alone from time to time and she'd straight up tell me she wanted me, but I'd deny her. I was too loyal to my friend to even try anything.

A few months pass, me and said friend aren't really speaking as much but hang out occasionally. During this dry period, the girl in question calls me to wish me a Happy New Year, she says I should stop by. A few nights later I'm at the girls place doing what I swore I wouldn't do. This goes on for 2 months, I was even her prom date.

Eventually, my friend found out. We didn't fight about it, but there was a mutual separation there. Didn't talk for a couple of months, but started hanging out again towards the middle of the year with ZERO mention of the incident. From that point on things haven't been the same. At the end of the year he just blows me and another one of our good friends off. Didn't speak to him until half a year later that I called him up for his birthday. He gives me the excuse that his phone wasn't working. Ok. Whatever. Let's just be friends again.

Over the next 3 years or so, we'd hang out once in a blue moon, but still kept in touch. I even pissed in a cup for the guy so that he would be hired for a job. Ater I did him that favor I've seen him twice, and only because the 4th friend of our group has come in to town and insists we go knocking at his place until he answers. The last time I saw him was in June after a good year and 1/2 since we last hung out. The guy comes out as if the ****'s all sweet, like we had just seen eachother a week ago. As if that didn't piss me off enough, he goes and blows both of us off after 15 minutes so that he can go hangout with some co-workers...at the job that my urine got him.

I don't know if the situation with the girl lead to all of this, but even if it did you'd think he wouldn't have talked to me from the get go. Instead he'd go months without attempting to contact me and then pop back in when it was convenient. He's completely disowned the 2 other guys that made our group. None of which live in town anymore. They call him, he says hanging out is a must, then bails if he doesn't ignore the call.

**** you, Tommy Stewart! :mad:




I just want my friend back :csad:
 
I started alienating people I used to call "friends". To be honest I have never been happier.

They used to use me and my "basket case" personality to make them feel better about the crappy ways they lived their life. **** them
 
Show up to his house, and scream, "CHARLIE MURPHAYYYY!!!!!" and give him a freakin superkick to the chest.

That is....hilarious. lmao

GoWebGo,

You're a dick.

This is really spot on. The only time it really works longer than a certain period of time, such as high school, is when two friends have so many things in common that the friendship is beyond not wanting to be alone at school.
 
Go WEb Go... that girl seemed like a skank... your friend tells her to go after you, and she does... huh???

Hey *****es, go have sex with Charlie Murphy...
 
:hehe:

That's exactly how it went...and what she was. It was fun while it lasted though.
 
Non-existant, thanks to Trojan brand willy-wraps!
 
Middle school

My 'best friend' Alex and I grew up on the same block, one year apart, went to the same schools, etc. We were best friends from like age 6 to 13. Then when i'm about to start 8th grade, my mom takes a job out of the country for a year and takes me with her. When I got back home it was like I didnt even know the kid anymore. He had completely changed and had turned into a stoner drugdealer. And weird. That was the end of that.

High school

My 'best friend' Justin I met in 9th grade when I came back to the states and was basically my brother throughout high school. I was like family to his parents, he was like family to my mom. We did everything together. Etc. Anyway, we get out of high school, and our first year of college he's at a school in South Carolina and gets a girlfriend. So everythings cool and we both get home for winter break and he puts me on the phone with her to "meet" her, and I find out later she didn't like me and told him not to hang out with me because she thought I sounded like a "player" and i'd get him in trouble.

So i'm like whatever, screw that *****, i've known this kid for 5 years you've known him for 4 months. **** you. So we go back to school, and over the next year we do the come home for break, chill, keep up over the phone in the school year thing. But I talk to him less and less, and soon the only time I can get ahold of this kid is when he has a problem with his gf he wants to talk about. He doesn't call just to try to see whats up with me, or call just to shoot the *****, and I know that sounds gay but this was really like my brother here.

So anyway he stops hanging out as much when we go home, and its because his girl has been pressuring him to not talk to me the entire time they've been together. We have another mutual friend, a girl, who he's been off and on with since high school, and he ends up sleeping with her one summer break and getting her pregnant. She decides to have the baby and he dissapears. Literally. Won't talk to me, won't talk to her, won't talk to any of our other friends.

Don't know what pisses me off more. The fact he basically abandoned me for some girl he knew for a matter of months or that he got our friend pregnant and then left. What a ****ing *****e.

Long term

My best friend Devin I was boys with from elementary school through high school, we were about as tight as I was with my other two. Anyway, nothing drastic really happened, but we went to different schools, and just as we got to the later years of high school he started hanging out with this group of people that was really weird and kind of punk rock. He changed a crapload and we kind of just grew apart. No real reason.

Strange as I literally grew up with this guy, and his family. I knew his little sister when she was a tiny girl following us around, and I knew his little sister when she grew up, went through puberty, developed a SICK body, and tried to bang me but I didn't do it out of loyalty. Hindsight I should have waxed that thick ass.
