How to drop a friend peacefully?

Okay I want to kinda drop a friend cus they've been making things worse for me but I feel guilty cus they had given me a gift me before. I've been telling them non-stop to like stop what they're doing cus it's just hurting me and both of us. Like I understand why and that stuff but I'm kinda just tired of giving them chances... For 12th time. Frankly Idk why I gave them this many chances but I don't like a friend who also makes my gf feel awful by constantly mentioning my dead ex around them. I don't want to lash out or fight, I'm thinking of ghosting but then that feels too cruel. I want to do it peacefully because there's already enough sorries and I'm kinda tired of dealing with their mental health.

Personally I would slowly stop contacting until they get the hint, that why there's no fight or drama. However, im gathering you don't want to do that, so what I recommend instead is sitting them down and saying something along the lines of "I no longer wish to continue this friendship. I have established my boundaries about this topic, and yet y...... 1 reply

Just like dumping someone there's no "peaceful" way. Acknowledge feelings will get hurt and rip the bandaid off. In my opinion it's much more horrible to not be upfront with someone than to just be upfront. To deny someone the truth is still lying and to me personally I hate it when people lie, wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. reply
