*This is the Final Part of a 3 Part series on Friends*
Episode Summary:
In this episode, we dive deep into the complexities of friendships and relationships, exploring how they evolve over time. We share personal stories about long-time friendships, how they have adapted to changing circumstances, and the importance of allowing friendships to naturally ebb and flow. We discuss the idea that not all friendships need to have the same level of closeness or commitment, and that it's okay to let relationships be what they are without forcing them into a mold. We also touch on the delicate balance of maintaining connections, avoiding the trap of "love bombing," and recognizing when it's time to let a friendship evolve or even drift apart. Join us for an honest conversation about what it means to truly value and nurture the friendships in our lives.
