Who are your best friends? 💙I used to ask men this when I first met them. Often they had no answer. One in five men in the US claim to have no close friends at all - a direct contributor to extremism & high rates of depression and loneliness in the West.

In The Green Fix today, I talk about decentering romance from our lives and looking at love and relationships without a hierarchy that places romance above friendship and community.
