When long friendships feel more obligatory than genuine

My best friend and I have been inseparable for fifteen years, but lately I feel like we're both going through the motions of the friendship we used to have instead of figuring out who we actually are to each other now. We keep making plans that feel obligatory, having conversations that feel scripted, and neither of us wants to admit that maybe we've outgrown something that used to fit perfectly.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The deepest friendships can become performances of themselves when people change but the relationship stays frozen.
