Synopsis

"The Friendship Fix" is the first book to delve into all of these aspects of friendship, including: how your personality shapes what friends you fall for, and why, as in romantic relationships, it's easy to get into patterns of infatuation with 'Ms. Wrong'; how modern technology and social networking have revolutionized our friendship-making, friendship-keeping, and friendship-breaking; how to avoid the pitfalls of these sites and instead use them to become the healthiest you; and, how friendships can make or break your emotional, physical, and financial health. The increasing role of co-ed friendships, work friendships, friends-as-family, and how to handle when 'Just friends' becomes 'It's complicated'.
