In this episode, Vernika and Monique get into the delicate balance of the "friendship triangle"—you, your bestie, and your partner—and the challenges that come with maintaining all three connections.

They get real about the unspoken rules and share their own experiences in navigating this tricky space. How much is too much to share? When does a partner become too involved in your friendships? How do you juggle time between your partner and your friends without making anyone feel neglected?

QUOTES 

"I don't intertwine the two. What me and you have stays between me and you, what me and him has stays between us."

"It's just that you're settling for that. You feel like that's all the best you can get. And it's always better, always, always better."

"I found someone that I want to be with, and I want to change some of my old habits. That's it."
