Articles About Friendship I’ve Liked Lately
“How Do You Serve a Friend in Despair” by David Brooks in the NYT (Thank you to Pam Moore for sending.)

“I Was Ghosted By My Best Friend,” by Diana Daniele in Newsweek
TV Shows & Books
- Are you watching The Last of Us on HBO? It’s gruesome, but if you can get through episodes 1 & 2, there’s a treasure waiting in episode 3, including a friendship between two couples that is quite literally life-saving.
- There’s a storyline in season 2 of Ginny & Georgia about the friendship between Georgia and Ellen that I really appreciate, especially because it shows two grown woman staying friends despite their teen girls’ major friendship issues. This relates to my newest post on Substack about a woman who ended a friendship with her friend because their kids stopped being friends.
- I’m reading Catherine Newman’s novel, We All Want Impossible Things, which features a beautiful friendship during one friend’s time in hospice.
