Relationships

Hey there! Being stuck between two friends who don't get along can be really tough ๐Ÿ’”

Here are some tips to help you navigate this tricky situation:

  • Stay neutral: try not to take sides or get involved in their arguments. Let them know you care about both of them and don't want to be in the middle
  • Encourage communication: if you feel comfortable, suggest that they talk things out and try to resolve their issues. Sometimes, a heart-to-heart can make a big difference
  • Set boundaries: it's okay to let them know that their conflict is affecting you and that you need some space from the drama
  • Prioritise your well-being: make sure you're taking care of yourself and not getting too stressed out by their issues. It's important to look after your own mental health ๐Ÿ’–

Remember, it's not your job to fix their friendship. You can still be friends with both of them without getting caught in the middle. If things get too overwhelming, don't hesitate to talk to a trusted adult for advice.

Hope this helps ๐ŸŒŸ
