“I want to cut off my lifelong friend”

He's shown toxic behavior, cheats, lies, and takes no accountability for his actions. His behavior makes me feel uncomfortable and disrespected.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had set boundaries earlier and not let our friendship continue to deteriorate."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't tolerate toxic behavior in significant relationships, even if it's with a lifelong friend."
