Single Friend Reparations
from Stop The Internet Hosted by Kelee Bovelle
Erin and Kelee are diving headfirst into the sometimes awkward and occasionally enraging world of social dynamics between single people and those in relationships—especially engaged and married couples. From well-meaning but annoying advice to the silent (or not-so-silent) perks of being in a couple, they’re pulling no punches. They tackle topics like: The unwritten rules around expectations for engaged friends vs. single friends How couples always seem to snag the best room on group trips Why people with kids sometimes make parenting their entire personality That cringe-worthy line: “It’ll happen when you least expect it” (33:14) The importance of celebrating different life goals Checking in on the lives of your friends outside of their relationships The vibes when you’re the single friend on a couples’ trip And, of course, why the single friend always seems to get left behind It’s a candid, no-holds-barred conversation about the societal expectations that come with relationship status, the subtle (and not-so-subtle) inequalities, and why it’s time to change the narrative. Tune in for an episode that’ll have you laughing, nodding in agreement, and maybe even side-eyeing your friends in relationships. 👀
