"She seems so pained that she's not in contact with Genny. I understand the hurt of trying to be friends with someone who doesn't want to be friends with you. She simply just has to move on."

@CowLorde noted:

"This segment was weird to watch! The tone and mannerisms when Genny was brought up! One person hasn’t moved on and it’s clear not Genny."

@Oscaronaride noted:

"Nothing came over her but absolute respect. Genevieve is a woman who enjoys her own space not because there is anything wrong with you. In a Lagos of gossip, podcast and drama, I did do the same if I were in her shoes."

@AdieleJust21448 shared:

"Most friendships don’t end because something dramatic happens. They end quietly through time, distance, changing priorities, and unspoken misunderstandings. Sometimes “we grew apart” is just the human way of saying evolution happened at different speeds."
