Reminds me of a song, about how people become "somebody that I used to know" Sometimes, that's just the turn things take. But life goes on. A wise man once told me, "Remember the past and consider the future. But live in present." That's how I've held it ever since. I cherish my memories, all the fun we had, but I don't dwell on it. Life goes on, and new people become important to you. And that's a good thing - new memories to be created.

I hope by now you are feeling better about the lost friendship. I am probably much older than you but still understand the feeling of realizing a friendship has changed. A year or two ago I took a hard and objective look at some friendships that opened my eyes to some realities I hadn't noticed before. It's not easy but it does help to see things as they really are, not as we would like them to be. No matter the age, we continue to learn from experience. Wishing you all the best.

[@jennifern.5305]

I think the biggest sign you’ve outgrown a friend is when you’ve literally outgrown them…like they want and expect you to stay in the confines of the box that they’ve created for you. They constantly dismiss anything about you that provides for your expansion and readily accept pictures of you that show you to be small

[@KatsuNoJutsu]

This.

[@Psych2go]

This is a clear sign that it's time to move away from your group so you can evolve in a new one.

[@dapdne4916]

I am surprised and glad I read your comment. I am losing a friend who was toxic and was happy to be so, as they typically are. As you said, this person's habits were to see me as small.😢 Recently, this person ran into a personally disastrous situation, so I responded to her email after a few years absent. She hadn't changed and froze me out again. Since I won't help this person except with supporting words, I guess, thinking of it, that is probably why. When I was in a similar position years ago, she did the same. We actually could have both done more, but this is not a deep bond as it might have been. So, for the best.😊

[@SofiaDari-c6v]

That is what happens with my "friend" this month and i can't stand it. She thinks that me and her belong together. The only thing I want to do now is to CRY myself out😭. There are multiple things happening except from that . That's why 😢

[@queenchill6352]

I struggle to let go of friendships, I’m quite a clingy person. To anyone who has a clingy friend, don’t get annoyed that their so clingy, fear drives them to be like that. Just talk to them privately and ask why if they willing to tell you. I’m clingy because of my struggle to make friends, have trust issues and much more.

[@Cr4zy3lf]

Letting go actually requires more strength then holding on a lot of times. So, I totally agree! You'll learn in life sometimes you won't want to let go, so some people don't. But the strongest people are able to let go and grow into a better version of themselves. Letting go isn't easy but holding on, just holds you back.

it’s actually more tiring to still prolong a friendship when both sides have outgrown it obviously. like why are we still holding on and forcing it when it’s not working anymore i think just letting it go through mutual agreement is healthier, no bad blood just closure

This is currently happening to me. Although it's a little upsetting that I may be the only one aware of it. It's difficult to just cut the thread with the people you've spent years together with. To me, the most difficult is realizing that I've outgrown a lot of friendships for a long time and learning to accept that fact. However, looking at another angle, outgrowing friendships is a sign of a level of maturity. You're becoming aware of your compatibility with others, realizing that there are some things needed to be let go of in order for us to better ourselves. Doing so may help us create a better and healthier relationship with people.

And I’m struggling to let them go because they feel familiar and I don’t wanna be “left alone.”

People saw that we talked like we knew each other 10 years even though we had only knew each other for a few months. But then he started to change, rather quickly. It was very overwhelming because usually this situation would happen over a period of time. This was happening in a period of 6 months. Imagine a 5 year friendship process crammed into 6 months. Finally, a rift in our friendship was created. It was a shocker for me emotionally. I had to go for counseling because the turn of events was too quick. Again, imagine a 5 year situation crammed into a few months. But there was another layer, he was showing signs of mental illness. This explained everything. I found out he lost friends prior to meeting me. He was looking for a new friend. But I realized as long as he is not treating his problems, he will not be able to have friendships.

I don't want that to happen again, but I also don't know how to stop letting people use me for their benefit since it always keeps a smile on their face. I'm just, hurt and lost. Having hope in all of this is really hard to do. But, thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to read my comment and even give your own comment.

Going into my early 20s, me & my friends are a lot more busy with work, relationships, & college. I still ask my friends to hang out but even when they’re free it seems like they don’t want to. I try not to take it personal and think maybe something’s going on in their lives. It just sucks when you’re putting in all the effort.

[@Sterling_Qrow]

It IS personal though........life happens, but the excuse that there isn't enough time is just that: an excuse Why is it that with my hectic life I still find the time to reach out to them yet they don't have the means of the same? Because I am not registered as important enough to MAKE time for. Simple as that. If it is important, people make time. If you are the ONLY one putting in the time and effort then they are blatantly saying you are jot worth the time and effort to them; that's what I finally realized with my own friend group after almost 10 years of being the one to make all the efforts and when finally I stopped reaching out first I stopped hearing from all of them

Going to a different college, the pandemic, and my family moving farther away really opened my eyes and let me realize just how little they truly cared about me. It took a really long time for me to acknowledge that I'd outgrown these people and that they didn't genuinely care for me as a friend. Over like the course of a year I felt this hella slow burn mix of disappointment, jealousy, hurt, and anger towards these people I genuinely cared a lot about and tried to always do my best to help them.

I think I outgrew my friendship with my best friend.. She's into stuff that I really don't appreciate at all and it seems like we're too different now... I still really like her but she just seems so childish to me? (I'm a bit childish too but in a different way), while she's focused on her k-idols and fanfiction stuff I'm getting annoyed by these things and the things I'm trying to focus on are more on the "preparing for adulthood" side like learning to maintain the house always clean, cooking, trying to get a job, learning to be responsible with money, etc. I really don't think we're that close anymore... Sorry for the giant comment but since I don't want to tell her this I don't really have anybody else to talk about this to, so thank you for listening.

[@morningglory.213]

I get it- I’ve been feeling the same way and it’s been almost an year (also she’s my only friend left from HS) Once I tried breaking it w her but she just “didn’t let me” , also I’m very shy and couldn’t assert myself (like always) and I just felt like once again I had no other choice than to stay friends w her but the more I’m extending this friendship, the more it feels like a “chore” like replying and hanging out w her feels like a chore. I don’t have any reasons as to why she’s “toxic” , ig we just are - well I don’t vibe w her anymore and maybe I’ve outgrown her So I totally get what u r saying, I also don’t have anyone whom I can talk abt this . 😶 Also once again I’m going to end this and assert myself more as I cannot do this anymore to myself cuz honestly I’d rather be alone Might update this comment once it FINALLY ENDS 😩 edit: its been more than a week since it ended- it was super awkward cuz like she cried and i felt guilty after that but ive just come to terms w it cuz its none of us’ faults :/

[@Leoprincess3038]

I mean it sounds like you're maturing a little faster than she is...but then you guys are supposed to be different I mean what's the fun in being the same? But it sounds like her interests are what's annoying you and thats a little unfair; to expect her to be just like you or you can't be friends. Having different interests doesn't mean outgrowing someone I mean if you have a problem with her being herself? She isn't the one with the issue 😉

I made a mum friend in the last year, but I’ve come to realise I don’t have things in common with her. She’s in to social media going out spending money lavishly, whereas I prefer nature walks, goal setting and achieving learning new skill, self improvement/development becoming financially independent. Even in the past year I barely reached out to her to meet. Now I’ve made new mum friends which my child is friends with and I can tell she’s feeling kind of a bit lost. I kept on praising her bubbly personality and how she’s great at knowing lots of people but she’s looking for more connection with me which I do not wish to give. I value myself and my time more now than ever and I feel like these new friendships feel more deep and meaningful. I guess what I am trying to say is she hasn’t grown up and lost in the virtual world and I need deep and meaningful connections. Needed to rant somewhere.

Even before the pandemic, we really have nothing in common anymore except a shared past but I am finding it difficult to constantly be the one initiating communication (and being super flexible about times because of the kids) but she never initiates communication. It's like she's forgotten about our friendship.

Love the emphasis of it being a natural part of growing up. And that is a normal and mature thing.

[@Aylinsgk]

It’s okay if this happens. I had a friendship that nearly lasted 15 years, we met on the first day of elementary school and we were always together. Over time, we both evolved into to two different people with completely different mindsets, interests and personalities and we had MANY arguments. The friendship turned toxic after time. She always wanted to keep staying friends with me, but I didn’t want her in my life anymore, after a whole lotta arguments and some dumb actions from her part, I decided to cut the bond. She was really petty about it, but I couldn’t care less. I felt like I had to be friends with her because I knew her for so long, but this shouldn’t be a reason to stay friends with someone, especially not if you’re not feeling good in her company. Now I definitely know, that it was the best thing to do, after all that, I realized how toxic she was, but I still wish her the best and I don’t hold any grudges for what she had done.

[@pierremercier4724]

Thank you so much for this video. For a long time, I was concerned every time I noticed that I was gradually losing some of my friends, friends I had known, in some cases, for many years. Indeed, life is an uninterrupted process of changes, transformations, often subtle, to the point that we hardly notice them, sometimes painful. And the same goes for everyone. The problem is that I often refused to face reality. I persisted in clinging to chimeras, ghosts of the past. To paraphrase C. G. Jung, when someone is too much in our thoughts, when the relationship we have with that person becomes more and more one-way, that is a sign that we are investing too much energy in that person. As far as I was concerned, having always been of an insecure temperament, the fear of finding myself in front of a great void terrified me. Of course, it could only result in a deep sense of moral distress for me. Learning to accept change, that others do not belong to us, and to let it go is a completely healthy process and a sign of maturity. The idea is not to blame anyone. If we wait too long for a door that is closed to us to open, we do not see all the other doors that are already wide open. Cleaning up your backyard is more than just throwing away what is no longer suitable for us. It is also, and above all, making room to integrate new objects that will make us happy. With simplicity and clarity, you have made me (re)aware of an essential reality of life. For that alone, again, I say a huge thank you.

[@SamSam-zn7ob]

When you come from an abusive family and live in a predominantly lonely society with no authentic sense of community, sometimes friendships are all you have. The fact that we are seemingly expected to discard people at the drop of a hat over small, superficial differences is demoralizing. I wish there was more emphasis on appreciating others' differences and less energy put into black-and-white thinking about relationships. You don't have to stop caring about someone just because they went down a different career path than you or they got married or started a family and you're single, even if you can't spend as much time together as you once did. You don't have to stop caring about someone simply because they live far away, even if you don't speak as often as you used to. It's ok if these relationships evolve, and it's ok to expand your circle and connect with more people too. You can still keep people in your heart without holding on too tightly. Obviously, this does not apply to people who become toxic/abusive. It would be extremely detrimental to hold onto these relationships. Best to simply let these people go.

[@lilixfive2307]

I've outgrown almost all my friendships one year ago. It took me a long time to accept it. But it still hurts a lot. I have the feeling that since I learnt to truly love myself and be completely myself with others, I don't know where I belong anymore. I find it so unfair. I thought loving myself would bring joy in my life, not loneliness. Sometimes, I feel it was easier to adapt myself to others. Finally, I found some people with who I can truly be myself but that's only the beginning. So I often continue to feel alone.

I was always questioning my friendships and I always thought that I don't belong somehow, but they were my friends since middle school (now I am a freshman) and I had no other friends so I had to let it go. But with Corona lockdown, I got more time for myself and my family and finally got a chance to slow down and rethink things, yes they are my friends and they are nice, but this relationship is doing me more harm than good, I can't even count how many times I came home after school crying on my bed while they couldn't care less. After corona and us separating in universities, I realized how we became really different and our interests are really different now. They are good people, they never meant to harm me on purpose, but it was too many hurtful moments to endure. But what really broke me was the fact that I've considered our friendship as something greater than they did, I thought we will be friends forever while they had set their mindset that we will break up after high school, so they didn't even put the effort to maintain it. Now some of them are trying to reach me, but getting away from them made me a lot happier, although I do really miss them every second, but mental health is more important.
