Male Female

The close friend with whom I fell out is my classmate. His name is Firdaus. He was my best friend. We were friends for almost 7 years and I always got along with him. He was very helpful. We never had a problem. He always helped me out and he stuck by me during difficult times. And he was the person whom I could count on. He was reliable. He never went back on his word. I could tell him everything I thought without being afraid that he would tell someone else. And also he was generous. He always bought me snacks. Even when I ran out of money or was broke. He never looked down on me and he never brought it up. He was a really nice friend but unfortunately he turned into a different person. When he started hanging out with two other classmates, who were total crap, they were rude, liars, unreliable and unhelpful. For instance, when my close friend Firdaus got into a fight, they never helped him out, they just looked at the fight and did nothing, and when I tried to talk to him, he didn't listen to me. He refused to accept that they are fake friends and then we fell out.
