Scenario

When friends' romantic choices create distance

My closest friend has been dating someone for six months who gives me bad vibes and I can see her changing in ways that worry me but I don't know how to say anything without sounding jealous or controlling. Our friendship is becoming more surface-level because I'm editing myself around this huge thing and she can probably feel my judgment.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The fear of overstepping boundaries around romantic autonomy is creating exactly the kind of isolation that makes harmful relationships more dangerous.
