I guess it's me, insofar as things about her are bothering me that never bothered me before. I just don't know why they are all of a sudden.


I'll give an example, if that helps.
She's quite overweight (that's fine, I need to lose weight too), and she'll say something like "I touched my toes twenty times today and my waist came back" or "my boobs were sagging but I carried my groceries home and now they're back where they're supposed to be". I used to just smile to myself and keep it moving, but now I have to hold myself back from saying something rude. I find that I'm often impatient and irritable with her now. I'm sure there are things that I do/say that annoy her too and I'm angry with myself for feeling this way. But this has been going on for months and only seems to be getting worse.


Well, she sounds a little daft. Has she not always been like this?


She has. It just didn't bother me that much because she's my friend and no one is perfect. But lately I've been so annoyed by these things. Maybe we need to spend less time together, or maybe the friendship has run its course. It makes me feel sad and guilty.

Yeah, but what happened is that she was fine in a friend group and once the other friends left for various reasons, I started to find her annoying.

It’s a bit like falling out of love with a partner. Sometimes it happens to me when I know someone too well.

My cousin. After years of being close but secretly judging her for for choices and selfish ways, I finally decided to just cut her off. We are fundamentally different, and I am unsure why it took me so long to accept it.

Yes. There were a lot of things that I admired about my friend, and still do. But I was turned off by her penchant for using people and the trade-off wasn't worth it.

Yes and then I think about what made me feel that way so I don't get fooled again.

Yes. The guy was one of my best friends. He moved out of state and I didn’t see him very often. He had a young kid, and he was such a fantastically bad parent, I just stopped liking him.

This is a terrible thing to admit but I feel like I just don't like my friend anymore. Nothing specific has happened, I suddenly just...don't like her. Has anyone experienced anything like this?
