We’ve all had friendships slowly fade out over time. But a new survey asked how many people have put a little FIRE under that fading process. And maybe adding accelerant.
71% of people say they’ve decided to end a friendship. 25% of people CLAIM they’ve never done that. And 5% “don’t know.”
So HOW do you end a friendship? Well, the go-to method is . . . ghosting people.
Yes, 34% of people ACTIVELY decided to end a friendship . . . by INACTIVELY doing nothing, and just hoping the other person takes a hint.
30% will sit down and talk to the other person . . . 9% will do it over the phone . . . another 9% would do it over text . . . and 7% will “do something else.”
(Obviously, approaches vary due to the circumstances, but do you have a method that has worked for you?)
