[quote=Anonymous][quote]It's weird as hell to have a conversation about why you're ending a friendship. I do think boyfriend/girlfriend relationships should have a discussion though.

This. People who insist on having a conflict rather than just fading have issues. I just experienced some one insisting on knowing what had bothered me. The truth was, she didn’t want to hear it and it would have been better left unsaid. Now it will be awkward . . . Fading is the better way to handle things if there will be no logical resolution from a conversation.[/quote]

It depends.  I had a person I no longer wanted to be friends with ask me that.  I was candid - the reason was that our lives had moved in different directions and I just didn't feel we had much to talk about any more.  Our common interest had been cycling, but I stopped due to a serious knee injury.  When we got together, it felt like a forced effort to search for conversation topics rather than a natural rapport.  She was still a nice person, but that's not all that friendships are based on.[/quote]
