What happened? Was it your choice, their choice, neither, or both?- If you were the friend being dumped, how would you want your former friend to handle it?- Dr. Friendtastic believes it’s very mean to suddenly refuse to speak with someone. What do you think? Why is this not a good way to handle friendship rough spots?- Why is it not a good idea to involve other people in a conflict between you and a friend?- How do you decide whether to try to work things out or end a friendship? (Hint: what might make you want to stay or go?)*** You might also like these podcast episodes:Ep. 127 - Friend wants space (Sloane, Age 6)https://drfriendtastic.substack.com/p/ep127-friend-wants-space-sloane-age-6Ep. 114 - Friend is ignoring her!
