I don’t understand why some people think it’s impossible for
a boy and a girl to be friends - Just
friends. You hear things like, ‘They’re only nice because they want
something more from you’ – like it’s weird for someone to be a genuinely decent
human being.
Isn’t it perfectly normal to be nice to your friends? It’s
like we’re so used to seeing romance on the big screen – or the small one –
that we forget how platonic relationships can be really meaningful too.
Friendship is so underrated these days.
I’m lucky to have guy friends I can count on, like F and,
fine I’ll admit it, also E. So it confused me that E would speculate that there
something more going on between me and F. Completely ridiculous, right? Maybe E
thinks all guys are naturally jerks, and they only put in the extra effort to
be nice to girlfriend-material girls. And okay, maybe some guys are like that,
but I know F isn’t.
I think there’s too much emphasis on romance today. Even if
we’re talking about friendship, it’s all about bro culture and girl squads -
like Taylor Swift’s! And that’s nice too, but we definitely don’t see enough
about friendships between opposite genders.
So here’s a shout-out
to all the great boy-friends and girl-friends out there. Because your
friendships deserve to be celebrated too! Do you think friendships are
different when it’s between a girl and a guy? Or are they pretty much the same?
Until next time!
