Episode 16 - You Don’t Have to Like Her: When You Can’t Stand Your Bestie’s Other Friends
Description:
We’ve all been there—you adore your best friend, but cannot stand one of her other friends. Maybe she’s loud, shady, competitive, or just not your vibe. Do you say something? Stay quiet? Protect the peace—or protect your energy?
In this episode of Slightly Unsupervised, Jennifer and Jackie get real about the awkward, complicated, and totally relatable tension that shows up when your bestie’s friend just isn’t your cup of tea. From fake smiles at dinner to passive-aggressive comments at parties, they break down how to navigate the “friendship triangle” without losing yourself—or your bestie.
In This Episode:
- Why it feels so personal when your bestie loves someone you don’t [04:15]
- The difference between jealousy and intuition [07:50]
- Fake nice vs. passive aggressive (and who’s better at which) [12:20]
- How group dynamics shift when triangles turn toxic [18:40]
- Why you don’t have to be friends with all your friends’ friends [23:05]
- How to say “I don’t vibe with her” without wrecking your friendship [28:30]
- The power of secure friendships that can survive honesty [32:00]
Because let’s be real: sometimes the hardest triangle isn’t a love triangle—it’s a friendship one.
