Diverging Paths

I seem to be disconnecting from some of my friends. With one friend I had to end the friendship; fullstop, don't contact me anymore. It was not easy to do, but I felt I had no choice; there was a level of 'betrayal' (for want of a better word that doesn't sound quite so et tu, Brutus?) that I thought was too high for forgiveness. Another friend, a long-haul friend, seems to be drifting away from me. Or I'm drifting away from her. Maybe it's mutual drifting. Whatever the case, I think I'm now floating in a completely different body of water (I can't decide if I'm in a pond or a river or maybe even an ocean).
