We all know that getting over romantic relationships can take time, sometimes weeks, months or years. Many poems, songs and film scenes have been dedicated to expressing the pain of dealing with such situations. But friendship heartbreaks don’t tend to get so much attention, even though they can hurt as much, or even more!

There are legitimate reasons for wanting to end a friendship. Sometimes it happens naturally when a person moves away, and it’s just not practical to see each other as often as before. In other scenarios, you may simply no longer share the same interests or values which brought you together in the first place.
