The [[dissolution]] of a friendship may be viewed as a personal [[rejection]], or may be the result of natural [[changes]] over time, as friends grow more distant both [[physically]] and emotionally. The disruption of friendships has been associated with increased [[guilt]], [[anger]] and [[depression]], and may be highly stressful events, especially in [[childhood]]. However, potential [[negative]] effects can be mitigated if the dissolution of a friendship is replaced with another close [[relationship]].
