    If you’re no longer sure what direction your relationship with your friend is going, here are seven signs to look out for that’ll let you know the relationship is coming to an end.

    They almost always ghost you

    They keep leaving you in the middle of conversations. If you check your text threads, it’s always you trying to reach out and heal the communication gap. It’s because they’ve already cut you off.

    They start telling people your business

    They no longer value your friendship, so they don’t feel compelled to keep secrets you tell them. Anyone and everyone is privy to your business.

    There are gaps in information between you

    You’re struggling to fill in pieces of information on the timeline of their life. It’s because they no longer tell you when important things happen to them. You’re out of the loop. 

    You struggle to hold conversations

    On the few times you find a chance to link up or talk, you find it diffcult to talk about anything because you’re both overthinking what to say. It no longer feels natural. 

    They’re always trying to one-up you

    Whenever you tell them something about yourself that makes you sad, they try to bring up something in their life to make you feel like your problems are not all that.

    They’re always unavailable

    Whenever you reach out to them for a chance to hangout, they’re suddenly unable to. It’s because they don’t want to spend time with you.

    You constantly make excuses for them

    Because they’re totally unavailable to you, you tend to cover up for their behaviour when you eventually get to spend time with them.
