It's painful for the other people, especially if you were close[ish] friends and they felt like they trusted you. And to be honest, it's pretty mean to just decide to "get rid of people", no matter how different from you they become.
But, if they aren't your idea of a good friendship anymore, here's what you could do: start being too busy for them. Join a sport team, take up irish dancing, whatever [or make them think you did-- though be VERY, VERY CAREFUL with this. If they find out, it's going to be even more humiliating for them.] If they see that you and your friends have moved on with your life a little bit, they may start to branch out and make new friends, an eventually, you'll grow apart.
Keep in mind though, ALL friendships that end can leave bitter feelings and resentment. Be very, very polit [not nice neccesarily] to them, or they could crush you with everything they know about you, especially if you've been friends for a while.
