When friendship roles become rigid power structures

My best friend and I have this dynamic where I'm always the one giving advice and being the 'stable' one, and they're always the one with the crisis, but lately I've realized how much power that gives me and how it keeps us both stuck.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

What began as natural caregiving has calcified into fixed roles that serve both people's need to avoid vulnerability in different ways.
