It was discreet, mature and clear. Maybe with some changes you could make use of it.:   I have decided after much consideration, that it would be best if you were to discontinue playing in my Saturday night game group.   In the past i have been involved in many game groups, and have experienced the way that small incompatibilites can, if permitted, blossom into irritations, and eventually into outright direspect, perhaps even dislike and resentment.    I am resolved to not allowing this to happen. My game group, and therelationships i have derived from it are invaluable to me. As i amsure they are to you.    With that in mind i must honestly say that there are small thingswhich, when taken individually are trivial. My decision is driven by the awareness that these small things have accumulated over time, and have become a single issue regarding the group as a whole.     I suspect this may offend you, but it is my sincere hope that this isnot the case. I value your friendship.     I only ask that you do not press me for details, instead having somesmall faith that i ask this not out of petty spite or arrogance, butrather out of a desire to avoid the sort of messy seperations thatlead to lost friendships and ugly game break ups we have both seen in thepast.     I am sure that you will be able to find a group much more to yourliking very soon.    BaldHeroI was surprised at how positive the repsonse to this was. Good luck either way.</blockquote>
