    *** DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:

    - Have you ever wanted to end a friendship? What happened?

    - In your own words, how would you explain this comment from Dr. Friendtastic? “I don’t believe people can be poison [toxic]. What I do believe is that sometimes people get into patterns of interacting that are hurtful for one or both of them.”

    - How is a friendship like an old-fashioned dance, where people hold onto each other? What are some ways you could change a friendship dance if you didn’t like what was happening?

    - Why is it not a good idea to suddenly stop talking to a friend, with no explanation?
