This week Karen and I dive into the intersection of the platonic and the romantic relationships in our lives, and explore the widespread impact of friendship dynamics on dating. We enter the dreaded friend zone, discussing how to determine if you're stuck in it, and her identity as "The Friend Zone Queen." We also unpack dynamics between friends and significant others, like when to introduce them, and how to deal if you don't like your friend's partner or vice versa - including a very unfiltered roast of my ex from Karen's perspective.
