Scenario

When your closest friend becomes too dependent during their crisis

My best friend from college and I have been through everything together for twenty years, and now she's going through a messy divorce and leaning on me harder than ever, but I'm starting to feel like I'm being pulled into drama with her ex who I also considered family, and I don't know how to show up for her without losing myself in it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The intensity of chosen family bonds can blur boundaries in ways that feel both essential and unsustainable.
