I lost 2 friends this past year. I was the one who had to get out. It was becoming too much for me. The one had all kinds of time for other things but not me. The one who I've known for years just continued to push my being on disability. I sent them both emails...the one is not local so that worked. The one defended herself...I get that part. But we've known each other for a long time and an "I'm sorry" might have helped. So I'm now making new friends at work and in some genealogy/family history groups. Try to look at it like now this opens up your time to make some new, healthier friends.
