Welcome back to Friendship Chemistry!

In this episode, Han and Liv tackle one of adulthood’s biggest hidden struggles: why making friends in your 20s is actually so hard.

From school friendships drifting apart to the awkward reality of “friend dating,” the girls get honest about loneliness, effort, and navigating new connections later in life.

Liv shares her experience using friendship forums like Candy Club, including how she met Paige — now a close friend and accidental recurring character on the pod (and proud Deezer user).

Han opens up about moving away, starting from scratch in a new city, and braving Bumble BFF in the hope of finding people she truly clicks with.

They reflect on how easy friendship felt when you were forced together at school or uni, and how adult life makes everything harder — less time, more pressure, and a lot more hesitation.

There’s also plenty of chaos along the way, including heated blankets, streetlights as home lighting, live phone calls and a passionate debate about music streaming apps.
