'Girl Meets World' season 3 spoilers: Riley and Maya's friendship may be affected by identity crisis

Maya and Riley with Lucas The Disney Channel

The next season of "Girl Meets World" season 3 will once again tackle one of the biggest problems that every teenager has to face – identity crisis.

In the episode titled "Girl Meets Triangle," Riley (Rowan Blanchard) will realize that her best friend Maya (Sabrina Carpenter) is suddenly changing into a different person.

Based on the trailer, Riley will tell her mother Topanga (Danielle FIshel) to "fix" Maya because she is suddenly behaving and getting good grades in school. But Maya just stood and stare at her friend all throughout the encounter.

The clip also revealed a scene where the girls' art teacher confronted Maya about her recent art work. According to Riley, Maya is "a rebel and you're going to love her." The teacher had a different opinion about Maya's work, saying that Maya is different from what her friend believes she is, and her friendship with Riley is deeply interfering her own artistic voice.

At the end of the teaser, Topanga told Maya that she really is acting a bit strange, and she should "come back" to her old self. But does Maya know who she really is? Will Maya think about what her art teacher told her and start distancing herself from her long-time best friend to be able to unleash her true potential?

The series is known for discussing real-life struggles of growing up kids since the beginning. Since both Riley and Maya are still adjusting to their new lives in high school just like other high school freshmen, it can be expected that they will face the new challenges that will come their way as they grow up.

The official synopsis for the episode reads:

"Maya's art teacher implies that her friendship with Riley could be affecting her artist's voice, thus kicking her identity crisis into full gear."

"Girl Meets World" season 3, episode 5 airs June 24 on Disney Channel.

More recently, I’ve enjoyed Christian movies Unsung Hero and Jesus Revolution on limited release in the UK, but it’s rare for such films to make the multiplex chains.
