37. Our Shit: Adult Friendships and How to Be a Better Friend

Shit We Don't Tell Mom

Adult friendships. Confrontations. Empathy. Responsibilities. We confront our uncomfortable thoughts and compare our friendship and partnership to a romantic relationship. They talk about their mental health and how that has affected their time management and relationships.

Takeaways:

• Having doubts about something does not mean you don’t want it
• Adult friendships need maintenance and check-ins from both sides
• Healthy friendships mean you can share uncomfortable feelings with each other
• Consistency and kindness is more important than frequency and big gestures
• Life gets in the way and friendships require managing expectations
