Choose a calm setting, express feelings using "I" statements, actively listen, and avoid interrupting. Empathy and Understanding: - Put yourself in your friend's shoes for mutual understanding. Acknowledge their feelings, express a desire to understand, and be open to compromise. Setting Boundaries: - Clearly communicate personal boundaries to prevent future conflicts. Discuss specific actions that caused drama, assertively express needs, and expectations. Seeking Mediation: - Involving a neutral third party can offer an objective perspective. Consider a mutual friend, counselor, or mediator to facilitate focused discussions. Apologizing and Forgiving: - Apologize when necessary, and be open to forgiveness for rebuilding trust. If you've contributed, sincerely apologize, and accept apologies. Forgiveness allows both parties to move forward. Moving Past the Drama: - Set Realistic Expectations: Resolving conflicts takes time. Be patient, allowing reflection and positive changes. - Focus on Solutions: Instead of dwelling on the past, concentrate on finding solutions. - Learn and Grow: Use the experience for personal growth, strengthening communication and conflict resolution skills. Goal: Resolve drama and build stronger, resilient friendships in the long run. ____________________________________________________________ The Failed Podcast Info: TheFailed Podcast / Sam Esquivel Info: Instagram: @The_Failed_Podcast 🔗🎙 https://www.instagram.com/the_failed_... 🔗🎙 https://www.instagram.com/the_failed_....
