Holding a friend accountable for their terrible behavior is not an easy thing to do. Explaining their behavior away seems more palatable than confronting them for making bad choices that affect others.

But even the most forgiving people can only take so much before keeping the peace becomes a mantra of the past. There will come a time when ending the friendship is the only correct course of action.

The question is, do you have a spine strong enough to stand against a good friend after they do something undeniably wrong? Redditors shared their own messed-up experiences with former friends who had no qualms about blurring the lines between right and wrong.

Redditors candidly recalled what their ex-friends did that cemented their decision to cut ties with them. After nearly 9k comments, we should count ourselves lucky not to be friends with these people.

At the same time, it's disconcerting to know that some people can mask who they are so well only to reveal their rotten core once they've gained our trust. It's not easy to recognize the red flags when it makes you question how good a judge you are of someone else's character.

Consider yourself warned because some of these responses are not for the faint of heart. Here are some of the best of the worst stories shared in the discussion.

1. An irresponsible gun owner would be the last person I would want to have drinks with.

2. Did you tell the old lady what this friend did?

3. Good on this Redditor and their friends for advocating for that girl.

That former friend is a vile human being. OP and his friends should hold their heads up high for saving someone from a lifetime of trauma.

4. I'll take stupid over evil any day.

5. OP dodged a bullet. That's the kind of person who wouldn't spit if a friend was on fire.

6. Some people do not deserve to become parents.

7. Don't you mean a former friend and an ex-girlfriend?

8. They only recognize pain when they're the ones feeling it.

9. I can feel the ick off of the screen.

10. When the watermelon fetishizer isn't the weirdest person in the group.

11. Unconditional love is wasted on people like this OP's former best friend.

Hannah thinks her happiness matters more than her ex-boyfriend's heartbreak over her betrayal.

12. Those poor kittens would have died in the woods or attacked by the new dog if not for this commenter's intervention.

13. That was a sign to stay far away from these people.

14. What did these vulnerable animals do to be treated this way?

15. This person is a horrific monster.

His wife and cat are in danger while this psycho is around.

16. Ha-ha! Infidelity is so fun!

17. Literally a disgusting person.

18. It took a lot of courage for the OP to talk about what happened.

For her friend to do this and lie about being assaulted by the same guy is diabolical.

19. Nope!

20. The poor cat! Ending the friendship with a person this unreliable and uncaring was the right call.

21. What level of manipulation is this?

22. It would have been perfect if the pregnant wife was told about her husband's affair.

23. What was she trying to accomplish exactly?

24. The things you do to others have a way of coming back to you eventually, don't they?

25. This person shouldn't be a part of society.

26. It's only a matter of time before they see this person again.

27. What a terrible day to be literate.

28. This proves that good friends are hard to find.

29. We're just a bunch of NPCs to this person.

30. Worst best friend ever!

Save for the few who were just brave enough to make stupid choices, these people are vile and shouldn't be around others. How cruel are you to experiment on how quickly animal fur can catch on fire?

The people who were unfortunate enough to encounter these monsters should thank the lucky stars they got away before they were harmed. Where is an unlikely animal friendship video when you need it?
