Love, attention and Greta Gerwig

Thank you for listening! What do you think? This was a rushed recording sorry for making it so short! Also when I talk about the being hated, I'm mentioning an example I'm not drawing from life.

Losing friends

Thank you for listening! The article I mainly quoted: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2022/03/why-we-lose-friends-aging-happiness/621305/ A video I found interesting: https://www.aspenideas.org/sessions/the-great-friendship-reset?utm_source=google&utm_medium=adgrant&utm_campaign=&utm_term=psychology%20of%20friendships&gclid=Cj0KCQiA1ZGcBhCoARIsAGQ0kkqsauK9I93oOi_ErGXn_odcfDgaAU2RFG5ytsRk678v-AmVz7kt-U4aAkHFEALw_wcB Note: When I mean being preformative, I mean being a different version of who I am by myself especially with different people. And being a version of myself that I like is mainly who I am when no one is around just with people.
