What makes for a 'safe' friend to talk to?
I feel like the answer varies with people.
For example, I know most of my friends would be devastated if I lied to them, but when I post online about lies, there are always some people who claim that they preferred to be lied to, to save their feelings.
I would not be a 'safe' friend for those people, ever.
Especially in a highly emotional or trauma-based situation.
And that's OK. I don't want to be everyone's safe space. I can't. I don't have the energy, and frankly, that's not my priority.
But let's talk about why I'm not your 'safe' friend.
