In this episode I unpack the subtle “promotion” of romantic relationships over all others. Why do we celebrate love… but quietly downgrade friendship?” I was told growing up that my husband should be my best friend… my only friend. And for a while, I believed that. But I don’t think that advice works for everyone, and I want to talk about why. And if you’ve ever felt left behind by a married friend… this conversation is for you too.
