Friend Forward

Why We Yearn For Friendship Groups, And The Pros & Cons of Groups vs Dyads


Listen Later

You’re out shopping and you see a group of four women walk by, sipping on coffee, pushing their carts and laughing at something together, and you feel a little sting. You’re wondering if you’ll ever experience that group dynamic again the way you did when you were younger, and you’re secretly wishing that you had a solid friendship group, in the way so many other people seem to. 

 

In today’s episode of the Friend Forward podcast, our resident friendship expert explores why we yearn for friendship groups, especially in our 30s, what the research has to say about it, and the pros and cons of friendship groups as opposed to dyadic friendships. So if this issue has been top of mind lately, then this episode is for you.


 


If you’re desiring a little more vulnerability, depth and intimacy from your friendships, then this is the episode for you. 


 


And, as always, stay tuned to the end for this week’s homework. 


 


If you’re in a period where you’re trying to better understand women’s friendships, specifically relating to how to position yourself to make new like-minded friends as a woman in her 30s, you can join the waiting list for Danielle’s “Five Stages Of Adult Friendship” course here.
