Dear Nina: Conversations About Friendship
#54 - Text Your Friends Back with Laura Tremaine
04 May 2023
One of Laura Tremaine's friendship philosophies is to put connection and relationship on your daily to-do list. And one example of a "to-do" we discussed was this: TEXT YOUR FRIENDS BACK! This came up for Laura after a few friends called her out.After realizing some of her communication mishaps and a few other friendship details were falling between the cracks or hurting friends' feelings, Laura solved the problem by putting her friendship goals and intentions on a daily to-do list. She has her family to-do list, her work to-do list, and her friendship/connection to-do list. This method would work for anyone who is feeling overwhelmed in life and doesn't want to be known as "the friend who doesn't text back." Or "the friend who never checks in."These to-do items will change depending on your individual friends and requires some noticing for what makes your friends light up.At the end we got into one of my favorite topics---how all the attention to boundaries is getting out of control. We do have to be there for friends sometimes, even when it's not convenient.
