How do you even "breakup" a friendship

I have meaning to "breakup" with some of my friends. They are wonderful people, but not really my people. I always keep myself distanced from them and I'm not that great of a friend.

Well I don't really think you need to break it up in the first place, in my opinion I feel like you can just be casual with them while still trying to be friends with people who are like you. Well it's still my opinion but i feel as though you should still think it over before completely cutting them off reply
Start by distancing yourself ig. Don't pick up their calls or reply to their messages. Initially it might feel wrong but once you start to go m.i.a. They will also kinda move on and forget about you.
