You Both Suck

Friends Who Only Pop Up When They're Single Again


Listen Later

Dara and Kunal are back with another episode of helping people tackle confusing conflicts! This time, it's about that friend who pops back up only when they're single again, BUT FIRST, it's FMK: NYC Tourist Attractions (:48). Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, World Trade Center. Then, they get into the ever-increasing problem of very long movies like Oppenheimer (3:45) and why Dara hates them. And Kunal thinks she's insane (what else is new). 

Then it's time for the Squabble of the Day! (9:36) A female in her mid-30's writes in about a friend of a similar age (who is "barely a friend" at this point) who always pops back up into her life when she's single again begging to hang out. The friend blames mental health for her absence, which is fair, but she has done this multiple times over about a decade. At what point does the writer say enough is enough? Is it even her job to say that?? And at what point do you question if therapy even works for some people? We debate it ALL and then decide who sucks in the scenario! Weigh in and let us know what you think. 

Other things they touch on:

- Communicating your needs to friends when you're depressed

- Why therapy shouldn't be a walk in the park

- Core friends vs acquaintances/old friends

- Trade "let's catch up for real" for "it was great to see you"
