Time for another live chat my dudes! 
This round we'll be tackling How to Handle Friendship Drama, because we've definitely all been there and it sucks 
Whether it's people talking behind your back, being excluded, or having a fall out with one of your mates -it's all a bit much to deal with sometimes!
We're going to be discussing Friendship Drama -what it looks like and how to handle it- on Monday the 17th of February at 7:30 pm AEDT (no worries if you can only be on for part of the chat btw, there's no cut off!)
Hope to see you all then! 
(Fair warning, I'll be spamming Friends gifs, i can feel it within my soul 
But if that's not incentive to join in, then I don't know what is 
)
ReachOut has a bunch of resources that address friendships, so I thought I'd link them here to get thoughts going before Monday! There's a whole bunch, but some of them are:
- 4 steps for coping with changing friendships
- Why it's okay not to have a huge friendship group
- How to make friends at school
- 6 ways to take care of yourself when a friendship ends
- 3 ways to end a toxic friendship
- 10 things to do if you're feeling lonely
- How to ask a friend if they're okay
(lotssss of lists -they're good, check 'em out! )
Just a quick reminder that we have a live GR tonight!

oooooohhhh boy, in a word? Everything
Insecurity and jealously i feel play a huge role in causing problems within friendship groups. Like if one person feels like they're at risk of being ignored, they might encourage everyone to exclude or tease someone else instead Also from memory dating rivalry can cause huuge rifts within and between friendship groups!
