Well, if you would consider ending the friendship over it, then you didn't really want to be friends with them in the first place, or there's more to it than just them constantly talking about it. If their friendship is worth it, tell them to cool it.
LittleRee · 26-30, F
I would just ask them to only talk about it when it is serious, or to talk about it less so that you are your friend could focus on more positive things. :) I would say it nicely personally. If you want to dump the friend and don't think you would enjoy their company even if they changed, then go for it. 🙃

I'm doubting their ability to change tbh

Tell them you're sick of hearing about it

@offingg: why would you do that? She might not even know she's pissing you off

@Adelh91: They're not adding anything positive to ny life, and they ALWAYS have telayionships problems and literally nothing else.

@offingg: well maybe they should hear you out first? Like I said they might think there's nothing wrong with the friendship and it would hurt to just cut them off
Chrisredfeild · 51-55, M
Reading your responses, no matter what you want to break the relationship off. Just do it then
offingg · 31-35, F
I guess, but I kind of feel guilty, I'm just tired of constantly having friends like this you kbow?

Just tell them politely they're monopolising the whole conversation with this one person.

Tune out, and fill the pauses with, "hmmm, that's tough", "yes, you are right" and similarly generic phrases.
offingg · 31-35, F
If only that helped, sometimes you just gotta leave people to move on. I think that's what i'm gonna do.
WoodyAq · M
@offingg: True. Even when you tune it out, the repetitive drone can drive you nuts.

Idk...aren't you supposed to care when it's your "friend"?
offingg · 31-35, F
Idk, you tell me when they only care about their own annoying love problems and don't give a rat's butt about yours
TheWitness · 36-40, F
@offingg: doesn't sound like friendship to me. Sorry 😞

Don't dump the friend. It might help them if you say it's getting harder to listen to the endless bitching and complaining about the relationship. Either they do something about it or accept it but you just can't listen anymore. Sometimes people have no idea they are doing something until it's brought to their attention. My motto in life is "shit or get off the pot" = if you are not gonna do something about it...don't whine
offingg · 31-35, F
That's so hard to do.
Fernie · F
@offingg: It is but not saying anything has such sad consequences. Losing a friend for one thing. It takes practice to speak the truth. It heals, it makes things clear so everyone understands. You can do it in a most loving way...not an angry accusing attacking way. Not speaking the truth in our lives is toxic
