I had a "best" friend of over twenty years before. I dumped him a few years ago.
I didn't even bother having a proper fallout with him. I just blocked his number and his social media profiles.
That may sound bitchy on my end, but I've had it. Enough was enough.
It's a triumph to me because I stick to my values. Without going into detail, he has basically crossed the line several times before. I just have to remind myself that this is not somebody I'd consider as a friend. I stand by it very firmly and nothing and no one will ever sway my decision.
Yep. That's it. Just sticking to what I believe in.
This is both sad and inspiring. It is excellent that you made the best choice for yourself. It's sad that things can turn even after so long.
