Welcome to another friendship roundup!
If you like friendship topics, you’ll enjoy my podcast, Dear Nina: Conversations About Friendship, which you can find anywhere you listen to podcasts.
The latest episode of Dear Nina was about:
- Friendship Despite Disagreements with the co-hosts of Ask a Jew (Yael Bar-Tur & Chaya Leah Sufrin)
- Unexpected Friends & The Key to Long-term Friendships with Will Schwalbe
Friendship Articles and More
I love doing these friendship roundups! I see so many friendship-related things, either because I find them myself or people send them to me. I’m going to keep sharing them on my site twice a month.
- “I Went on a Package Trip For Millennials Who Travel Alone. Help Me.” by Caity Weaver in NYT Magazine. This is a long (and witty!) read on visiting Morocco with a group-travel company that promised to build meaningful friendships among its youngish clientele.
- “Good Enough Friends” by Dan Kois in Slate— on the vanishing teenage experience of just hanging out.
Latest Anonymous Friendship Question
I Opened Up My Latest Advice Letter to All Substack Readers. This one really moved people: “Abrupt Silence After Vacationing Together.”
Have an anonymous question or an episode idea you want to share with me?
You can do that here and I will never know it was from you.
TV & Books
- TV: I’m so happy to have the Ted Lasso gang back in my life. Shrinking was great, but I didn’t love the finale. I’m enjoying Daisy Jones & The Six.
- Books: I finished We Should Not Be Friends: The Story of a Friendship by Will Schwalbe. A beautifully written memoir about an unexpected friendship and the real keys to maintaining a long-term successful friendship. Listen to Will on episode 49 of Dear Nina.
Reminder to signup to discuss Gabrielle Zevin’s Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow with me on April 17th.
