I haven't lost friends from being an atheist, mostly because not a whole lot of people know it, but I've lost friends for other reason. It does hurt a bit, but that's life. You just need to get through it, and having some people around to talk to helps with it. I guess I don't have any specific advice, aside from just try to realize that this is a part of life.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
