When a friendship ends, people don't always give it the same amount of thought that they do relationships ... most of the time, friendships end in a different way - slowly, and without declarations. Usually people don't really notice until a friend has been gone for a while and then they just say they grew apart, or their lives became too different. Jennifer Close
About This Quote

The saying, "when a friendship ends, people don't always give it the same amount of thought that they do relationships" has some truth to it. Many people only think about the end of their friendships. They never stop to think about the way their friendship ended. They don't stop to think about what happened between them and how it made them feel, until they see someone else's relationship ending. When they see that, they realize that they were wrong for not thinking about or noticing how their own ended, and for not realizing how devastating it was on the other person.
