Who Needs Enemies When You Have Messed Up Friends Like These? 15 Stories Of Friendships That Dramatically Came To An End
Earlier this month, redditor u/decisivevinyl asked the Reddit community, "What's the most fucked up thing you've seen a friend do?" And noting could have prepared me for these responses!
Comedy Central
1."He said they had picked up a non-cat-friendly dog on the journey and he would just drop off the kittens in the woods." —u/PoloGrounder
PBS
"A guy I worked with was about to take his wife on a trip back to their mutual hometown in another state. They had a pair of delightful kittens and they asked me if I would watch them while they were gone. I had little experience with cats but these two were just wonderfully playful. I gave him a call when he got back to arrange returning the kittens, but he said they had picked up a non-cat friendly dog on the journey and he would just drop off the kittens in the woods. Needless to say, I kept them and they were wonderful furry friends for me and eventually to my wife and kids. I still think about what would have happened to them if I had not been in the right place at the right time."
2."Deliberately got knocked down by a car" —u/anothercynicaloldgit
FuzzyGhost
"Deliberately got knocked down by a car in order to prove that when drunk (and we were very drunk), his bones were flexible. Fortunately, the car had been slow to turn. There followed a couple of minutes trying to reassure the driver he was okay, whilst calling him an idiot. Meanwhile, he was laying flat on his back, maintaining he'd proved his point."
3."He was going to be the reason she got divorced." —u/hmfiddlesworth
TNT
"Best friend was excited for me to meet his new gf. The whole evening he bragged about how she was still married and he was going to be the reason she got divorced. Haven't spoken to him since. Did hear she broke up with him and sorted out the issues with her husband."
4."She slept with him." —u/Final_Objective_6204
NBC
"Brought my friend to watch my boyfriend practice his drumming, but as she watched him she kept spreading her legs wide, while wearing a skirt with no underwear. Long story short, she slept with him and he left me thinking he would be with her. Needless to say, she didn’t end up dating him, because she already had a boyfriend."
5."He kicked a pipe on purpose and told her it needed to be replaced." —u/FriendlyDifference72
Comedy Central
"We were working in an old lady's attic and he kicked the shit out of a pipe on purpose, then went and told her it needed to be replaced. I never worked with him again after that."
6."Threw McDonald’s as hard as he could at a homeless lady." —u/Mundane_Tour_3215
MTV
"He threw McDonald’s fries and a burger as hard as he could at a homeless lady asking for food. I called him a piece of shit and never spoke to him again."
7."My friend gets a watermelon out of the fridge and dares my other friend to fuck it." —u/TonThom
Dimension Films
"I was out for the night with two of my friends, and we were all crashing at one of their parents' houses that night. We got drunk, headed home, and decide to grab some snacks from the kitchen before hitting the sack. Out of nowhere, my friend gets a watermelon out of the fridge and dares my other friend to fuck it. We’re teenage lads at this point, so we all find this hilarious, especially when my friend actually does put his dick in the thing. But that’s not the fucked up bit. My friend whose house it was then takes the fucked watermelon, screams, ‘Yeah,’ and starts to eat where it had been fucked. He then threw it full force into the wall and went to bed.
Needless to say, me and the watermelon fucker went to bed that night feeling a bit weird about the dick melon-munching friend. Never stayed there again."
8."My best friend had just broken up with my brother." —u/bitetime
MTV
"My best friend had just broken up with my brother — who had moved over a thousand miles and changed jobs to be with her — citing personal differences. My brother was devastated, but I tried to respect her decision and be a source of support for both of them, especially because they truly weren’t the best fit. But then she shared with me, because she knew that I loved her and would be happy for her so long as she was happy, that she’d been cheating on my brother for the past month, and had found her soulmate.
The depth of my brother’s heartbreak, already immense, was further compounded by the infidelity. To my bewilderment, she truly couldn’t understand why I was ending the friendship. She seemed so distraught that I would end a years-long relationship over something so 'small.' And I still can’t comprehend why she thought telling me would result in anything other than a complete door slam.
Hannah, you still suck. And I’m still angry."
9."My cat had been outside for a week with no food or water." —u/AIDS_CHIMP
Boomerang
"I went on holiday for a week and asked my 'best friend' to pop in and feed my cat — he lived a few doors away. When I got back, my cat was lying by the back door of my house. I went inside and his bowl was empty, so I called my friend and asked when's the last time he fed my cat. He said, 'Oh yeah, I forgot!' My cat had been outside for a week with no food or water. I haven't spoken to him in 12 years."
10."As soon as he was out the door, Friend 1 jumped up, dropped his pants and underwear, and fucking crop dusted my roommate’s pillow." —u/Nerevarine91
Fox
"So, I had this roommate in college — he wasn’t the most popular amongst my friends, but he honestly wasn’t a bad guy at all — but he just kept getting pink eye. Neither he nor I knew why. One day, we were hanging out in the dorm room with two of our friends from high school, when he (my roommate) stepped out to go to class. As soon as he was out the door, Friend 1 jumped up, dropped his pants and underwear, and fucking crop dusted my roommate’s pillow. Apparently he’d been sneaking in and doing this regularly for weeks, but, this time, decided to let me and Friend 2 in on the secret. There were visible flecks of shit all over the pillow and the bed. Friend 2 and I did not think it was nearly as entertaining as Friend 1 did, and immediately informed my roommate. Apparently, Friend 1 had also been pissing in people’s soda bottles. We, uh, we dropped him from the group pretty thoroughly after all that."
11."Decided the best place to throw up was into his pint glass." —u/KamakaseRoadKill
Paramount
"On a night out, friend was sick, and decided the best place to throw up was into his pint glass. After the deed was done, he proceeded to say, 'waste not, want not,' and downed the pint...sick lumps and all. It still makes me queasy to think about it. Animal."
12."After about 11 months of sobriety, my 'best friend' shows up at my door, several bottles of vodka with her." —u/EllieSouthworthEwing
Bravo
"Three years ago, I made the decision to stop drinking. After about 11 months of sobriety, my 'best friend' showed up at my door with several bottles of vodka with her. She said, 'I’m tired of you being sober! Stop being a little bitch and get drunk with me today!'
After a moment of shock I uttered, 'Uh, no, that’s not happening, and we’re never speaking again.' She tried to reconnect several times, saying, 'I’m sorry, I was only kidding,' and 'I’ll kill myself if you really don't talk to me ever again.' To which I replied, 'I will not feel guilty for any choices you choose to make in your life.' That stopped her manipulation pretty quickly.
Eventually a relative of hers called me asking what happened as the friend stated that I cut them out for no reason. As soon as I told the relative that I got sober and that they wanted me to drink with them again, the relative interjected and said, 'Say no more. I respect you for what you did. She really needs to get some help. thanks for taking my call and explaining.'
In retrospect, I waited way too long to cut that 'friend' out."
13."Came back to an empty apartment and my number blocked." —u/Meowiewowieex
Fox
"I let a friend of 15 years stay with me for six weeks after being kicked out. I agreed to bring him on my lease, since I live in a two-bedroom space alone. I asked him for rent then left to take my dog out to the park. I came back to an empty apartment and my number blocked."
14."It was my friend catfishing me." —u/Mission-Wash2796
E! Network
"Had a female friend who 'set me up with a friend of hers.' We texted for a month or so with said friend, only to find out it was my friend catfishing me. Why she did this was beyond me. I didn’t think it was funny, obviously, but it also fucked with my head a great deal. when me and my other friends called her out on it with more then enough evidence to prove she did it, she still denied it. I couldn’t talk nor did I want to talk to women for about a year or so, because I was so fucked up from it."
15."HE JUST FUCKING ATE IT, like it was a piece of jerky!" —u/Neohexane
Showtime
"My friend had this super thick callous on his heels. He was picking at it and I watched him peel a big, long strip off from the back of his heel. It looked like a trimming off of a horse's hoof. Then HE JUST FUCKING ATE IT, like it was a piece of jerky! I was aghast."
