'We often can't find the right words to express the unique depth
and complicated beauty of what friendship really is because we've
spent so much time heroising romantic love. This book is an attempt
to fill that gap.' Growing up, Elizabeth wanted to make everyone
like her. Lacking friends at school, she grew up to believe that
quantity equalled quality. Having lots of friends meant you were
loved, popular and safe. She was determined to become a Good
Friend. And, in many ways, she did. But in adulthood she slowly
realised that it was often to the detriment of her own boundaries
and mental health. Then, when a global pandemic hit in 2020, she
was one of thousands of people forced to reassess what friendship
really meant to them - with the crisis came a dawning realisation:
her truest friends were not the ones she had been spending most
time with. Why was this? Could she rebalance it? Was there such
thing as...too many friends? And was she the friend she thought she
was? In Friendaholic, Elizabeth unpacks the significance and
evolution of friendship. From exploring her own personal
friendships and the distinct importance of each of them in her
life, to the unique and powerful insights of others across the
globe, Elizabeth asks why there isn't a language that can express
its crucial influence on our world. From ghosting to frenemies, to
social media and communication styles, to the impact of seismic
life events, Elizabeth leaves no stone unturned. Friendaholic is
the book you buy for the people you love but it's also the book you
read to become a better friend to yourself.
