Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

You're not overreacting. You're trying to figure out how to keep living in a social world that didn't end when your relationship did.After a breakup, the hardest part isn't always the person you broke up with. Sometimes it's the people who remain connected to him.The friend who still talks to him.The group chat that still includes him.The party where you aren't sure whether he'll be there.The casual update you never asked for.The mutual friend who insists she's "staying neutral."These situations can leave you questioning your friendships, your boundaries, and even your own reactions.The Friend Who Still Talks to Him is a practical guide to navigating shared friendships and social circles after a breakup-without demanding that everyone choose a side.This book helps you understand the difference between a friend who maintains contact with your ex and a friend who fails to respect your boundaries. That distinction matters. A friendship can survive continued contact with an ex when there is genuine consideration, clear communication, and respect for what you need.Inside, you'll learn how to: - Understand why shared social circles can feel so emotionally complicated after a breakup- Decide what you're actually asking for from mutual friends-and what you're not- Handle group chats that still include your ex- Respond when a friend says she's "staying neutral"- Navigate parties, gatherings, and major events where both of you may be present- Deal with information about your ex that you never asked to hear- Recognize when a friend has accidentally become an informant- Set clear boundaries without turning every conversation into a confrontation- Accept that some friendships may change when boundaries are established- Navigate major events when mutual friends are still connected to both of you- Build new friendships and connections alongside old ones- Recognize what genuine loyalty actually looks like- Move forward when the shared social circle begins to realignYou don't have to control who your friends talk to.You don't have to pretend you're comfortable with everything.And you don't have to abandon an entire social circle just because your relationship ended.What you can do is decide what access people have to you, what information you want to receive, what situations you're willing to participate in, and what kind of friendship feels respectful enough to keep.With practical guidance, realistic situations, boundary-setting strategies, and questions designed to help you think through your own circumstances, this book gives you a calmer way to navigate one of the most overlooked parts of a breakup: what happens to the friendships you still share.Because moving on doesn't always mean leaving everyone behind.Sometimes it means learning how to stay connected without losing yourself in the process.You can protect your peace without making everyone choose sides.
