What should I do if I'm in the middle of 2 of my friends hating eachother? I'm kinda in the middle xx
Hi, being caught between two friends can make every conversation feel awkward 💛
You don't have to choose between them or fix their friendship.
Try staying neutral and saying, “You both matter to me, but I don't want to pick sides or be in the middle.”
If either friend talks badly about the other, you could say that it makes you uncomfortable and encourage them to speak directly to each other instead.
Don't pass messages or repeat what either person has told you, as that could pull you further into the argument.
It's also okay to take some space while they work things out and spend time with other friends who help you feel less stressed 🫶
If it gets too overwhelming, talk to a parent or trusted adult who can listen, offer advice or help them sort things out.
Hope things calm down soon, and remember this isn't yours to fix 🌟
