[quote=Anonymous]It isn't always 'childish' to let your relationship with someone cool without explaining it. I see it as more hurtful to email someone with the headline "200 reasons why I can no longer be friends with you" saying all the worst things they may think about themselves.

While I may have decided a person has changed too much/repeatedly displayed behaviors I cannot accept in a friend, someone else may feel entirely differently. They are not necessarily unworthy of friendship, I am just no longer able to be friends with them. I don't see a reason to cut them down and make them feel lousy because I cannot perpetuate a relationship with them.

Now, if they come to me and sincerely ask what happened, I'll explain it to them. But if it's just their own lifestyle choices/personality evolution and not a specific action that hurt me that made me decide to drop them, it's not for me to criticize. Plenty of other people may like them the way they are. I may not, but I don't need to make them feel lousy by listing the reasons. [/quote]
