When a Good Friendship Turns Bad

Psychology Today | 08.06.2026 02:56
Good friends are hard to come by, so when you find someone in your adult life that you click with, it is fantastic. You share the same sense of humor, hobbies, palette, or just simply enjoy each other’s company because it is easy. It’s refreshing to have someone in your life that you do not have tension or conflict with… until you do. Hurt and confused, you try to bring the “weirdness” up, but your friend gets defensive, and things escalate. Now, things are worse than ever.
