Here's my latest (open access) article on the philosophy of #friendships and #trustingrelationships, written with Laura Specker Sullivan. Shout out to @annfriedman.bsky.social and @aminatou.bsky.social for providing us with some of the language used to develop and structure our argument.
🎉 New article by Laura Specker Sullivan & Fay Niker:

"Friendships need to go wrong in order to go right."

They argue that mistakes made while trying to help a friend can actually deepen trust and strengthen the relationship. 🤝💔➡️💪
