"Best" friendships are base their relationships on feelings of deep trust and loyalty. Its easier to turn the volume up on a friendship than it is to turn it down. So, imagine friendship has a volume control ...
(1) setting 1 - 3 might be work associates - we discuss daily events, have lunch, talk about plans for the weekend, but there is no reliance and we are not going to count on them for anything more than covering for us while we attend to a personal issue during the work day
(2) setting 4 - 7 might be those we socialize with a few times a year and might confide on some problems you face (without second thought) (extended families for most people)
(3) setting 8 - 10 might be those we associate with on a regular basis, will schedule time to spend together, and in whom we confide on a regular basis - we might loan them small sums of money, but we expect it back
(4) setting 11 - 12 are those we will drop anything and help when in need and make time for at the expense of time we scheduled with others. We not only confide in the setting 11 - 12, we can cry with them and rely, with confidence, that there is unconditional acceptance. We might loan them money and not care if we get it back.
How likely is it that any of us would not notice if our volume was turned from 12 to 8?
It is very difficult to "turn down the volume" on a "best friendship" because you are, in fact, taking back unconditional acceptance, loyalty, trust, love, and respect of/for another human being. With this in mind, the mention of the "annoying" characteristics demonstrates that you have already turned down the volume. Expect to be asked why you turned the volume down and expect that the other person turning the switch to "off" might be the most likely outcome. Going from unconditional acceptance to "I can tolerate you" in limited doses, is not an easy pill to swallow.
Before turning up the volume with another to a level 10 - 12, consider what you give to this friendship and what you take. If its not equal and there isn't unconditional acceptance and loyalty to help the other person grow, maybe you should keep it at a volume setting 8 - 10. You might keep your friends longer.
