Why Hello… Friendship! Part 2
In today’s podcast, Michelle and Suzanne continue their discussion about friendships from last week, picking right up where they left off (after a brief discussion about bear and moose encounters). Once again, through their own example they clearly demonstrate that good friends are like rare gems and that those who find them are truly blessed.
They begin by sharing some stories about bear and moose encounters, and then resume their conversation about friend groups by looking at the difficulties a new member of a group faces while trying to fit in with other members. Together, they go on to discuss topics like ghosting friends, divorcing a friend, the evolution of a friendship, and how the dynamics of a friendship can change due to situations like disagreements. Our hosts bring this episode to a fitting close by celebrating their friendship and just how thankful they are to have each other in their lives - something that all listeners of the podcast can be truly thankful for as well.
Episode Highlights:
- Some stories of bear and moose encounters
- How every group of friends is different
- How changing locations can affect friendships
- Personal struggles with keeping friends
- Ghosting in a friendship and the importance of closure
- Things that lead to the evolution of a friendship
Quotes
‘‘So, you bring up an interesting point, meeting new people is always a challenge just because, you know, personalities and stuff and the time you have to invest in starting from that new place, obviously.’’
“But in my heart, my friend is my friend. You don’t that just that, you just can’t flip that switch off.’’
‘‘Because when somebody causes hurt, or something happens that causes a change in the relationship, it gets wrinkled, and it can’t ever go back to that perfect state.’’
‘‘I think that realistically, even if the friendship evolves and becomes stronger, it takes a lot for me to let my guard down once it’s up.’’
