How can I politely exclude a friend from a group hangout without harming our individual relationship?
Show Notes
It's springtime now folks, and you know what that means: everybody's itching to go out, and everybody's getting vaccinated. Wooo! Though it's still going to be a little while before it's safe to party, this week's asker is already worried about their guest list. Turns out, one of their friends is kind of a bummer, but the asker already invited them to boogie down with their Fun Friends in the future. Is there an amicable way to navigate this? Also featured this week is an in-depth discussion of the status of our respective thighs. Enjoy.
CWs
- The beginning banter discusses body issues, tattoos, and aging.
- Trin mentions that cellulite is considered a secondary sex characteristic for many people. We honestly have no idea what that really means, but The Internet says it's true. Either way, please remember that cellulite-having is not any indication of what your gender "really" is, and also cellulite is fine. It's totally fine, folks. Be free. Sky's out, thighs out.
