In today's episode, a reader asks what she should do when friends do not seem supportive of her having no contact with a narcissistic ex. Also, she wonders what to tell her adult kids about why the marriage ended. I discuss how I believe the issue is rarely just one person, but instead is a dysfunctional dynamic between partners, and how this reframe may help her figure out how to talk more productively with friends and her kids about why the marriage ended. Thanks for listening everyone!
