I'm think I'm going to ignore my friend.
Why are you going to ignore your friend?
I am ignoring them for my own good.
Is your friend a danger to you? If not then he would be hurt that you don't want to be friends anymore. You should talk to him and see if you cannot fix the problem.
It's not like he wants to hear from me. He will get the message.
If you guys really are friends you need to listen and be responsive to them and their needs. This is only going to make matters worse and your friendship might never recover.
