We dive into the painful phenomenon of outgrowing friendships and the silent breakups that occur without drama or explanation. Growth is beautiful but not everyone grows at the same pace, and sometimes the hardest part is when friends take your evolution personally.

• Growth is natural but can create distance when friends aren't evolving at ...
