It's rather
FINAL, isn't it. For that reason I don't agree to it. I know that the meaning of
friend should hold a deeper value and not just a fleeting half-earnest effort of devotion. That a friend is someone who knows both your attributes and your failures but accepts you for who you are - and not for who others think you are. Perhaps not even who you (yourself) think you are. But all of this
“never did” and
“won't any more” indicates that you are perhaps not much a good friend yourself. Anyway, who's to say that an ex-friend might not become your best friend in future? Isn't it too judgemental to think in such terms?
I must also say that I find the over-used expression
“comes a point” very shallow. It's everywhere.
“It was at that point that I knew … “ or
“I realized at that point that I would never .. “ Why should any point in life define all that has been …… and all that is to come? It doesn't, so why pretend that it does?
