Abusive friendships are just as common & just as devastating as abusive romantic relationships, but never talked about
Also, thinking about how friendships can be a 7H matter if we’re talking “best friends” as these friendships are essentially partnerships and represents a bond/commitment
It’s funny bc people make it sound so easy to “unfriend” someone and comepletely disregard the fact that a lot of close friendships are abusive af and for some, getting out of them can feel terrifying and be extremely difficult
Healthy friendships are just as important as healthy romantic relationships, and we need to start talking about what healthy friendships look like so people don’t find themselves traumatized bc they didn’t realize their friendships were severely unhealthy and abusive.
