Is it ever a good choice to end a friendship?

I've been friends with this girl for 5 years, and I know for a fact lately she has been dishonest by lying to me. When ever I find out she does, she makes a terrible excuse that no one would ever believe. When ever I want to talk to her, she makes an excuse that basically means no. Things have gone stale and I see no positive thing towards our friendship. However, I have the worse bad luck any man has ever experienced, and scared if I make a big decision like this, two hours later I would have made the biggest mistake of my life! So I want to ask the community if its a good choice to just end it. If it goes bad and I regret it, well I know nothing would have stopped it xD

    This is always going to come down to what you think because it's your friendship. But I will help you weigh the pros and cons.

    I had this happen to me once, I had a friend who was only my friend until I was close enough to see through her. I didn't stop and tell her that we weren't friends anymore. (side note: That is a BAD idea. You will come off as mean and friends who are loyal to you and her will have to choose a side.) Here's what I did, instead of texting her daily, I stopped texting her. If she texted me first I would reply until she started being mean again. Understand that if she lies to you, and you are considering ending it, it's not a friendship anymore. A friendship is two people who want to hang out because they enjoy each others company.

    What I suggest you do is just leave her alone for a while, if she misses your friendship then be open to forgiveness, but you don't deserve to be treated poorly. If you guys are friends she will come around.

    administration freaks want somebody to regulate - that became you. Parhaps she sees that your course won't provide her as plenty get entry to on your life and she or he does not like it - particularly if she felt that she became good at controlling you. she will have the skill to locate a clean guy or woman to torment, and you may now circulate forward without interference.

    I wouldn't end the friendship if I were you because 5 years is a long time
