One thing you can be sure about in life is that friendships come and go. You can know someone your whole life and only have a surface level friendship with them, and wind up meeting your best friend at the age of 32. You may also have met your best friend in kindergarten and stayed besties your whole life. Either way, the strength of a friendship is determined less by the length of time but rather on the relationship's quality. And judging by these Reddit stories of petty reasons people ended friendships, they weren't of the best quality to begin with.

    Text - Luckboy28 857 points · 1 month ago I was watching Doctor Who in my college dorm. Roommate asked what I was doing, so I told him about the show. He sat down and watched a few episodes with me in silence. He then got up and refused to speak to me for the rest of the semester, then moved to another dorm. To this day I have no idea what he found so objectionable.

    Text - [deleted] 230 points · 1 month ago I couldn't afford to be her bridesmaid. I was experiencing hard times and living in poverty. She knew this and didn't give a shit. Her family was exceedingly wealthy and she was well-off. She was a spoiled brat and always got her way. She said I should make her wedding a financial priority. I didn't have money to put gas in my car. 15-year friendship down the drain. Turned out to be a huge blessing.

    Text - elqueco14 291 points · 1 month ago Don't be roommates with your friends. Best friend begged me to move in with him, only to be kicked out 3 months later because "once or twice you left a window open, and I know you don't leave dirty dishes out but you should clean everyone's dishes if you get the chance." Turns out his gf just wanted me out so her friends could move in, then they broke up a couple months later. Still see the guy time to time and we're cool, but we went from being best fri

    Text - lferry1919 68 points · 1 month ago I was talking to a friend and they decided to put on some mascara. They poked their eye and then started to yell at me saying it was my fault. They demanded I apologize and say that it was my fault it happened. I said I was sorry it happened to them but I wasn't going to take the blame for something that wasn't my fault. This person held a grudge for like two years and even slammed a locker door into me at some point since we always had lockers next to e

    Text - redneckhippynerd 39 points · 1 month ago I called my roommate/friend out for leaving a bunch of dirty dishes by the sink for several weeks. He had cooked an elaborate meal for his GF that involved most of the cookware. He said I was liar and that they were mine. That was the last time we spoke. He spent the rest of the lease at his GF's place and stiffed me on utilities after moving out.

    Text - tifflery 61 points · 1 month ago My best friend of three years told me on the last day of 8th grade that she could no longer be my friend. We were starting high school next year, and she wanted to be popular. I was too concerned with grades and didn't have the right look so she didn't want to be associated with me anymore. I'll give it to her, she DID become one of the popular kids. (Pregnant in high school, married the quarterback and never left our small town....)
