They don't put effort into the relationship
"One of the hardest things in life is walking away from a friend. It's an unexpected act that takes a toll on your entire being. Books and movies always portray friendship as 'forever,' but just like any relationship, life happens and people change. A slow build-up of small issues opened my eyes to a deteriorating friendship. I felt like our conversations were quiet and filled with her gossiping and complaining, which are two things I try to avoid. I began to notice the differences between my empathy and her selfishness. I was always changing my plans for her, and it was never reciprocated. Then I read an article saying something like, 'The happiness you cultivate in life stems from those you keep in your inner circle.' That struck a chord in my heart — although I loved her, she was poisoning my inner circle. I realized that not all friendships last forever, and you, as much as anyone else, deserve a team of supporters: friends who fill you up instead of bring you down."
