I always love your lives. It's like visiting with an old friend but I can just listen and I don't have to talk. I had a break up recently with a long distance, old friend over politics. It got ugly and I probably said some things that I shouldn't have and I hung up the phone on her (so juvenile) but I was so upset. We have not been able to re-connect since. She probably thinks I should apologize but I find it disingenuous to pretend when clearly we do not share the same values. Perhaps the friendship has to take a break and wait out the next 4 years.
Hello Garance, I’m a new paid subscriber here on Substack. I used to follow you a few years back and then lost track of you. I’m not on social media very much as I had a social media cleanse a couple of years ago but I found Substack last year and then rediscovered you! I really enjoy your posts and lives. This live was particularly relevant to me as I’ve gone through quite a bit with “friends” over the past few years and this really resonated. Thank you. By the way I have also started using Doré about a month ago and it’s fantastic, so simple and so effective. I am very glad to have reconnected with you on here.😍😍
Garance this is so freaking relatable. I’m in my mid-30’s, and this is where I’m at. In my 20s it was a lot of the dynamics you mentioned (my first career was in fashion, now I’m in film and just left LA), now it’s a lot of isolation because of not fitting in specific lifestyle bubbles (i.e married and/or with kids—somehow this is my fault). I’m fully realizing that I deserve good friends that feel convicted that yes, they want me to be in their life. Regardless, I need to choose myself. This live was healing for me because I think I hide (instead of being on social media/connecting with certain people) because I don’t want to expose myself to all that again.
Somehow I missed the other live sessions 😫 but I’ll be at this week’s. Thanks for sharing ♥️
Thanks so much for this live and this topic. I got a similar deceptive experience when I went to the US (I am French) and there I feel people call you very easily their best friend. While in France I don’t even think that I told my best friends that they are my best friends. And in the US I thought quickly that I had a lots of friends there and then I found, particularly during Covid when I was alone and far from my family that what I thought was friendship in fact was not. But I suppose we mature with time and become better at seeing that
Loved listening to you ma belle ♥️♥️♥️
