Description

Grieving the end of a friendship that turned romantic? This week I answer a listener question about the grief and confusion that comes when a close friendship becomes romantic — and then ends.

Whether you're experiencing a friendship breakup, a "friends-to-lovers" heartbreak, or navigating unspoken feelings, I offer compassionate advice to help you process the pain, find closure (even if it's one-sided), and validate your emotions.

🎙️ In this episode:

• How to grieve a friendship breakup with romantic feelings involved
• Why blurred boundaries can deepen the heartbreak
• Self-blame, red flags, and learning to trust yourself again
• Healing after queer friendships and relationships end
• Tips for protecting your heart and rebuilding your social support
• Unique challenges in queer friendships and relationships — and how to navigate them with care
