How do I end a friendship with someone worth out creating bad karma?
Is it an easy as ignoring them and cutting off all contact with them? I have a small list of friends I simply have no need for in my life. I want to make my circle smaller. How do I end a friendship with out experiencing bad karma in the future from hurting their feelings.
I recently lost a friend, she simply stopped answering my calls and texts and cut off all contact with me. I perceive that as the friendship being over and I'm okay with that! I was upset for a day, and then I got over it! I moved on quickly. I'm at peace with not being friends anymore.
How do I end a friendship without experiencing bad karma in the future?

Yes, wish them the best always...then as I always say...
"Oh, their serving Martini's on the other side of the pool,
I think I'll swim over, Ta-ta."
Then, you just get caught up and never swim back.
No harm.
You were ok when dropped ...they may be, also.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

Friendships come and go and people will drift away gradually. There is no bad karma in moving along your path and letting others follow theirs. That is inevitable.

There is no bad karma in ending friendships. It happens, it's okay because we don't have that connection anymore nor the same interests... I personally would prefer to answer the calls, but politely decline any invitation and not engage too much in conversations and have it die out slowly. I believe it could be bad karma if you do it in a hurtful way.

Yes, this is true. It can be bad karma if you do it with a sadistic reactive attitude.
If you can end the friendship, sincerely wishing your friend the best, it will not generate bad karma or a bad conscience.
On the other hand, if you continue being in a negative relationship knowing it is harmful, it can generate bad karma as well.

Relationships are eternal. Something like "ending a friendship" is an illusion and doesn't exist. But you can simply turn your attention away from something. Just as a gardener who has to water the plants he wants to be growing, you are nurturing any relationship that receives your attention. If you put your attention away from a relationship, it will leave your life experience. But that doesn't mean it is dead. On a vibrational level it is still there, in limbo so to speak.
Of course you cannot turn your attention away from something by thinking of it. Just put your attention on the relationships that have meaning to you. The other ones will slowly disappear from your life experience.
As to answering your question: if you attach the emotion of guilt to this process, you will exactly reap that - guilt and having committed a "crime".
If you attach peace and loving departure to that, there will be happiness for everyone in this experience.

there is no bad karma only karma. it registers that is all. If you are in harmony with yourself and all parts of yourself that is what is registered.
If you end a relationship, how do you feel about it? This is what counts.
Not what the other person feels. Dissolve all energy ties and all is fine.
A great indicator is, if you picture the other person, how do you feel about them?
