Female friendships are very special. Many times these bonds are shown to last longer than other bonds in a woman’s life whether they are romantic, family, or otherwise. But sometimes; one of the two in a friendship starts to become jealous of their friend for various reasons, and this can develop into a sort of competition between the two which results in the two becoming frenemies. Researchers have studied this phenomenon, and claim that these toxic relationships have three prominent characteristics. The first is being competitive, which is when one views the other more as a rival to outdo than a friend to support. The second is jealousy in the terms of social connections, or material possessions. And the third is distrust, which is actually a lack of respect and care within the friendship.
In the case of Doris Duke and Barbara Hutton; they took this to a whole new level.
So settle in my spooky friends. You are about to hear the crazy tale of two rich women who started out as friends, but their relationship spiralled into being the original frenemies.
