Joyce has recently become friends with Holly and Anne. Holly and Anne know each other from before and are close friends. When an argument arises between Holly and Anne, Joyce decides not to intervene to help resolve it, since their argument means they will now each spend more time with her instead of each other. In this example, Joyce takes which of the following positions?

b. divide et impera
c. weak tie
d. spanning tree

a.tertius gaudens

Tertius gaudens also known as rejoicing third is a situation where they are three parties, one party benefits from the conflict between the other two parties. This only works if the three parties have equal and independent relationships among each other.
