I don't blame Lily for ending her friendship either. People drift apart. And you're right - Lily should have been honest with Severus about why she wanted to end their friendship. It's not like she avoided talking to him because she was afraid he might hurt her. To me it seemed like Lily had all the power in the relationship, as Severus flinched when she said,"Let me?" after Severus had said,"I won't let you-" (before SWM). He camped outside her dormitory to ask for her forgiveness, and she acts like she's never treated him badly. Severus deserved so much better than that.
