About this listen
 Fourteen texts in a row. Zero replies. Paul counted — he made a chart, which he insists is science — and today's episode is the result: an honest, funny, occasionally painful deep dive into one-sided friendships.

Paul brings the heat with the story of the fourteen texts (and the group dinner he found out about from a filtered story). Edzel counters with the story from the other side — the six months HE was the friend who vanished, and what drowning actually looks like from the inside. Together they build the Three-Text Test (three honest texts, then truth), draft Paul's real text fifteen live on air, hold up a mirror with five signs YOU might be the red friend, and land on the line of the show: love they cannot feel is just a secret.

Plus: the green friendship that survived silence, and why somebody has to keep the porch light on.
