Whenever I've needed to break off a friendship, I've simply ceased all contact (after giviving my reasons, where necessary) and left it at that.

Having dropped a friend, you may be surprised to discover how easy it was - which in turn serves to demonstrate just how little you had in common to begin with.

Many friendships are far more superficial than we give them credit for, and we tend to remain in them out of habit or politeness. This is not healthy.

True, and sadly so. I like personally to think I'm genuine heart on sleeve loyal kinda guy. But frequently I get the peepee taken for being quiet or not actively participating in thier frequent 'do someone I've never met down' whining sessions. I just have to think karma and all that, because it will, I know it. Yeah, I am quiet in these situations because I've seen it as a kid and don't really need the kind of friends who behave this way. Who truthfully does? Anyway, I figured this would be a decent place to get a shakedown on the deal and achieve some levity! lol. I thank you all from the bottom of my stony little heart (Pet Cemetary).

It gets better (or worse) when thier younger kids come into the equation but I don't want to go there as it simply isn't my business to do so. Lastly, these folks are only just a bit younger than me in thier late 30's. Where's that pic, oh yeah, this is me... a lot of the time now. Hence I just can't be bothered any more to even try and help.

Ok, this reminds me of an incident/occasion they found hilarious then and, still do to this day. Living above a take away as former best friend did few years ago, one night at around 1 or 2 am. Cue the prop, that prop being a thoroughly rich and rank well used set of babies nappies, fully loaded. Hurled said nappies away up and over the rooftop from the back of the building to the front, right over the heads of one of the take away customers waiting for his Kebab.

Utterly charming. I am so stupid for not having taken that as a fair clue back then. :rolleyes:

Yeah, the more I dwell on it all, the more it really is time to shuffle on. I will try to talk to my one friend one more time if I can get him away (from the influence that exists) for long enough and go from there. However I don't plan on taking any prisoners no more.

hey! you stay away from me with that thing

i think you should drop it to be honest, if you really dont like them, theres no reason why you should make the effort to socialise with them if they dont care about you.
 
Sounds to me like a classic case of you've outgrown your friends. Either have words and ask them to not be such nobbers, and if you have and they still continue it's time to distance yourself and find new friends on your level.

You know you love your friends like family, respect them, listen to them all the time and thier problems etc as and when they vent, do the things friends to do help each other and so on. All doubtless a part of life's rich tapestry, heh. It's a natural thing for loud drunk people to want to draw attention to themselves and be the center of the party or whatever. I got fairly well used to my parents doing this when I was a nipper, but tbh it does get old for me real quickly now when otherwise good friends get so drunk they cease to care or think about how the things they say and do impact on others, and I don't really tolerate it so well tbh. I'll keep quiet but it just doesn't ride.

Does there come a point where you have to draw an end to, or at the very least determine a diminishing friendship such that you can perhaps find new ground. Do you move on ? Or do you try to put up with it all and risk further guaranteed annoyance ? Note: It's air to say that I am at my limit of tolerance with them, especially given that I have made effort and frequently gone out of my way to be a good friend in a storm.

How do you deal with loud and drunk friends who no longer seem to care ? Discuss...

Its good to see im not the only one in this position. I havn't spoken to a particular 'friend' for 4 months now. I feel guilty that i havnt but i think thats just the 'nice guy' in me. I have known him for a few years. He is 34 and i still get voicemail messages at god knows what hours of the day and night where he is drunk etc. We both work in respectable jobs. I work shifts and without going into a rant he has no idea what he does to me and other folk. He never listens to sound advice and he is always right. Then he wonders why he is still single with very few if any good friends.
Know how your feeling m8. Just call it, there will always be better folk out there.

Thats exactly it in a nutshell. He barely cares when he's sober and his gf eggs him on when they are getting plastered. Driving the 30 odd miles of a weekend to visit frequently results in a thoroughly unpleasant experience these days. It breaks me up you know, both ways. I've known my pal for a long time but it makes no difference now, eg: asks advice, doesn't pay the blindest bit of attention to your answer and often just talks over me.

This last Saturday night was just plain as bad as it gets. Oh and I got the pleasure of coming to know another drunk from a few doors down as well. Same deal, like they are becoming carbon copies of one another. Honestly if I could secretly film what was an average Sat night there you wouldn't get your breath for the way the house is run. It is fair to say that when they are sober, we rarely see eye to eye in terms of mutual respect and generally being courteous as your friends usually tend to be. All that appears to have simply evaporated. Not four weeks ago I volunteered to help his sister and her hubby move house. We did good too. Again, totally forgotten like I never did anything good for them at all.

I have to extend all the sympathy in the world for his daughter and his gf's little girl. I'm gonna stop here now and thank ya'll for your comments and wit on the subject, sincerely. If appropriate and if I can still be bothered I may still try and talk to him again sometime and I'll let you know how it goes. But as I say I am in no mood for excuses no more.

Cheers ;)

He's playing the same ol game as no doubt she would. Mr ignorant, omg you mean me?? That is life he says, we're just having fun he says, omg I think YOU are the one with issues he says. These have all been prior excuses, which just reinforces the detatchment they have from being accountable and responsible. It's an ever decreasing circle and they don't even acknowledge they're in it.

If these were friends of yours, or your parents, would you say they were fit and responsible adults ?

Because the next issue I have before departing this station is whether or not on the face of it I should bother reporting them to social services. I can think of plenty of examples where they fail frequently with regard to looking after their own children and frankly it bothers me greatly knowing this. The nappy uincident is just the tip of the iceberg.

I stay away from them when they are drinking & back off as a friend until they need me or they are sober enough to listen to my advice.
