Friendship Cancelled - When Relationships Break up, Who Gets To Keep The Friends

Being Chloe Barksdale

Cancel Culture is a "thing" often associated with a company, brand or even a celebrity. Usually something is found out or someone says something and suddenly like a raging wild fire, word spreads that it or them, needs to be......"cancelled"! Whatever it is needs to not be purchased because of the company is thought of a trash, or the well known person has said, done or supported something that causes them to be ousted from the "cool kids".

But one thing we don't seem to think about when it comes to being cancelled, is - Friendships and Relationships. Especially now with social media, there tends to be a labyrinth of entanglements, if you will, that once a relationship or friendship goes left - lines are drawn in the sand, and all too often, friends are stuck in the middle. Then it comes down to, who gets who the same as who gets what, in a divorce. And if you are still cool with them both, it turns into who gets invited to what? Who attends what for fear of one running into the other? Or, the biggest one - who can no longer come sit with us - the cool kids.

And then sometimes, friends don't have a choice in the matter because unbeknownst to them, one makes the decision for themselves, to CANCEL you without your even knowing it, or their reason why.
