Ending friendship with ex

[jcoven02]

So I have this ex. After the breakup we agreed to remain friends, a decision I'm now regretting. For a bunch of reasons I'm frankly sick of this girl and would prefer never to have to see or speak with her again.

 

Unfortunately I do have to see her again -- we have several classes in common and she works near where I live. So I'd like to break off the friendship in a way that minimizes drama and doesn't make things uncivil/unfriendly. I have no desire to be mean to her, I just want her out of my life.

 

How do I walk this tight rope?

Just stop talking to her, blow her off, don't answer calls or messages, if she asks why your not returning her calls or messages, just be polite about it, like, oh sorry, I fell asleep early, or was busy with school, say it with a nice smile and continue on, do that enough times and she'll get the hint.

Heh, I like it. Hell, short enough I could probably fit it into a text msg, so she understands just how little I value her friendship.

 

But somehow I think it will make our Monday evening class awkward. I'll have to think on it some more.

Maybe something more along the lines of "I don't think a friendship between us is a good idea. Take care."

do it slowly, just slowly drop contact, answer her calls to start with. then slowly miss a couple calls and forget to message, and just slowly bring it down to friends where you dont talk overly much. - more like classmates =)

More awkward than having continued contact you don't want?

Just say that you are interested in dating someone and don't want to confuse any future relationships with ex's in the picture. It's true and it's as simple as that.
