You swear you're just being a good friend—but what you call caring, they call being a... friendzilla!

Have your friends started taking longer to reply? Do you insist plans go your way? Has anyone ever joked that you're a little too much? Do you sometimes think, If only my friends listened to me...?

If so, your behavior sounds like that of a friendzilla!

At some point, we're all guilty of such behavior—getting on someone's nerves, talking too much, texting too aggressively, or giving unsolicited advice. You don't mean to be annoying, but still, it happens. So, how do you stop?

How to Avoid Being a Friendzilla: Navigating Friendships with Empathy and Respect will help you spot (and stop) those little habits that may be pushing your friends away. It will teach you how to be a better friend, so your friendships can grow stronger, healthier, and way less awkward. Because great friendships take time, balance, and yes, the occasional apology!

In this book, you'll discover:

 • Tips for spotting friendzilla tendencies
 • The art of guilt-tripping (and why your friends are so over it)
 • How to tell if you're the main character of every hangout (without realizing it)
 • The fine line between caring and controlling (it's thinner than your last nerve)
 • The Sherlock Holmes method for figuring out why you overreact
 • Why passive-aggressive sticky notes don't help (and what to do instead)
 • The importance of saying what you mean (no one has time for a Shakespearean monologue)
 • Why clinging to one friend may not be your best move

Read this funny, step-by-step guide and laugh about your past friendzilla moments as you learn how to navigate friendships with empathy, respect, and self-awareness.

Nurture authentic connections and never be that "my way or the highway" kind of friend again!
