friendships: communication, cutting off,...

About this episode

Let's talk about friendships and how they differ from romantic relationships in so many ways. What standards and expectations should we have of our friends? How do we accept friendships for what they are and what they bring to your life? Does every friend have a fatal flaw that you have to decide whether you can live with or not? Communication within friendships can sometimes feel like a minefield for me, knowing where the line is on what's important and needs to be discussed vs what's not worth causing a fuss over and can be swept under the rug is something I'm still trying to work out😅
