Friendship breakups hit differently because they’re the silent heartbreaks no one talks about. There’s no guidebook, no dramatic rom-com montage to process it. This is someone who knew your quirks, your secrets, and your coffee order by heart. When it ends, it feels like losing a part of your history. Unlike romantic breakups, there’s no clear script for closure, and people tend to downplay it—like it’s “just a friendship.” But the truth is, losing a friend can feel like losing your emotional home. It’s messy, personal, and incredibly hard to replace.
