Friendship breakups can hurt more than romantic ones because we expect our friends to be in our lives forever as bridesmaids and godparents to our children.
• Seeing former friends posting with new friends can trigger identity crises and feelings of rejection
• Awkward encounters with former friends can be uncomfortable, especially if confrontation occurs
• Replaying conversations to figure out what went wrong is common after friendship breakups
• Being the friend who always reaches out first can reveal one-sided relationships
• Receiving messages from former close friends can bring back emotional memories
• Looking through old photos and social media "memories" often triggers sadness
• Wanting closure but knowing it's sometimes better to move on
• Learning that people come into our lives for different reasons and seasons
• Understanding that friendship circles naturally evolve as we go through life
• Treating friendship breakups like romantic ones—allowing yourself to grieve and then move forward
Stay positive because no matter how difficult things get, life continues to move forward, and you'll make new connections along the way.
