The Seven Year Friendship Rule
Description
Should you 'shed' friends every seven years? We hear out the expert who says yes. She also knows why you feel like you have no mates, and has some advice for how to attract some new ones. And no, Jessie, Em and Holly don't all like it.
Also, the new micro-compatibility test for prospective partners. Lead question: How long before a flight do you like to get to the airport?
And, do you have Pathological Demand Avoidance? Or are you just lazy as hell? There might be an excellent new excuse for why you just don't like to do what you're told.
Plus, all our recommendations. One of which is for the stellar Out Loud gift guide, coming into your inbox from the Holly Out Loud newsletter tomorrow — but only if you're subscribed:
