What to do if friends hate eachother?

0

Okay first off, I’m really bad with socialization. I don’t normally have friends and I don’t seek them out, they always initiate. I seem to attract quite a variety of people, I like to think I listen well and am fairly nice. So here is the problem, I often find myself stuck in the middle of friends who hate eachother, I’m good friends with both but I have to hear about how much they hate one another :( And whats sad is I understand both sides… But I can’t pick a side. I almost feel like its betrayal to be friends with both of them. I’m not sure what to do about it.

Just make clear to them that you're friends with both of them and that you're not going to pick a side. It's always a bit complicated when two friends hate each other and it's not fun at all to have to listen how much they hate each other. Explain to them how this makes you feel and try to talk with them about other things. If they would ask you to pick a side then it's better to choose neither one of them.

I believe that you should try to stay out of it. Really this has nothing to do with you and it makes you uncomfortable. In your situation I would ask them to stop talking about it to you and more or less try to stay out of it.
