About this episode

The episode discusses navigating friendships after a divorce and the challenges of social gatherings.

Who to choose when your friends get divorced. TODAY'S QUESTION: Dear Talktors, here is my dilemma. My wife and I are very close friends with a couple who just recently got divorced. We love both parties, but they do not care to be near one another. We love to go out dancing, and these two were always down to join us. However, since they are no longer together, neither of them want to go dancing, out of fear of running into the other at the club. Now we don’t get to go dancing with either of them! The zenith of this problem is that I have a milestone birthday coming up and I want to see them both at the party, but I’m afraid neither will show because of the aforementioned situation. What should I do?
