Tried to let a friendship fade passively.

I've known him since we were in elementary school. I was in his wedding party. We've known each other for so long and it sucks so much that I don't feel like I want to be around him anymore, but I just don't. Let's call old friend OF.

There was an incident with another groomsman before the wedding that legitimately put us all in life or death danger involving guns and alcoholism. That day was the first time I ever met that groomsman and I was not told that he had a history of violent alcohol
