I've (M) had 2 close (F) friends since almost 10 years ago, and now suddenly they say they don't want to be friends with me anymore. - eviltoast

Title says it, apparently i’ve been “too much” for them to handle (and i recognize i was quite the bag of rocks in 2021).

But these last two years everything had been just fine (i apologized for my misbehavior, i finally got a job), everything was going great.

But now they suddenly felt they’ve “changed and matured” (their words, not mine) and that somehow does not allow us to be friends any longer.

Any advice?

I feel i’m losing my head over this.

    There’s not much you can do to change the decisions they’ve made, but you can reflect on your decisions and see if you want to try to change anything about yourself.

    I don’t know what exactly you’re referring to when you say “misbehavior,” but sometimes the stank will never come off a relationship after that. Also, people grow and over time may naturally drift together or apart. Could be you’re still “misbehaving” but aren’t aware of it.
