We all know the golden rule of friendship: don't sleep with your best friend's boyfriend. Congratulations, you've successfully cleared the lowest bar of human decency. But what about the unspoken rules of friendship? The ones nobody explicitly teaches you, but you should just effing know?
This week, Emma is going down the rabbit hole about the complicated world of friendship politics, and she's starting with a particularly controversial one: What happens when you introduce two of your close friends, they hit it off, and suddenly they're making plans without you?
Is it jealousy? Insecurity? A bruised ego? Or is there a difference between being territorial and expecting a little fucking consideration from the people you love?
Drawing from some painfully personal friendship fallouts, Emma unpacks the psychology of feeling excluded, the fear of being replaced, childhood abandonment wounds, and why certain friendship betrayals can sting worse than romantic breakups. She's questioning where healthy boundaries end and basic social etiquette begins, whether we're using emotional maturity as an excuse to invalidate our own feelings, and why being a good friend sometimes means doing something you technically don't have to do.
Because obviously you don't own your friends. But does that mean you shouldn't give a sh*t about their feelings?
