Why are there no official friendship breakups like in relationships?

At least I'd know if I was bothering someone or if it's okay to message them every once in a while. How do people know they aren't friends with someone anymore?
Edit: not including arguments ofc

same way, they stop communicating.

@badapple But that's not a real break up. That's running away and that sucks
break up is the same as "running away" its when you push the person away.

@badapple Is it? I find it different when someone tells me the truth and when s/he avoids me. When someone's avoiding you, maybe s/he needs gelp but doesn't want to involve other people?
no if they push you away or even start being rude, the friendship is over much the same way a relationship is, their need of you is over.

@badapple Their "need"? I try to avoid rude people. Omg, what kind of friends did you have?
I push away lot of people when I feel down (in a nice way, I just say I have a fever and need rest), but that doesn't mean I don't want them to be my friends anymore. And I prefer honesty than fake friendship.
just ones that go distant or turn on you. as you get older most of the friends you had when you are a teen go away, only a few will stay with you. im kind of the same way to be honest. closing myself off at times.
