Bromance...

[blackbeltninja]

I know a few really touchy-feely guys who I think probably are genuinely straight deep-down. It's always them who nobody is 100% sure about, though...

I've got a serious bromance going with my best. We're about as close as two people can get with very few boundaries. I'm as comfortable with him as I am with myself. We don't do any of the macho bullshit and we are super expressive with each other. Nothing sexual's ever happened, neither of us has ever been with a man, and there isn't any sexual tension, even though we talk frankly about sex all the time. What would be the point, you know? We're as close as close gets as it is.

I believe in bromance! My best buds and I are pretty tight, and aren't necessarily affectionate with words, but more so in actions.

Lots of hang time, spottin for the other at meals, lookin out for the other, etc. There are words unspoken, finishing the other's thoughts or sentences, and closer than brothers, more like a partner, but not really partners/lovers.

 

[AngelFromAbove]

Yes, of course it can exist. I really have disdain for the word, but men can have deep friendships devoid of sexual attraction.

My best friend and I know each other better than anyone else. We are honest and open. We share everything but sex. I love the way he thinks, smells, moves and am comforted by his presence. A hug or a smile from him sustains me. We share joys and tragedies with laughter and tears. He makes my world better and I do my best to bring him comfort. It is okay to love without sex and often it is best love.

This is just like me. I just love being around him all the time. Sometimes things might get a little flirty but it isn't in a big sexual way, just like punches in the shoulder, wrestling etcc. The other thing is that whenever he calls or I see him, my heart always starts racing, it's almost like seeing a girl you like, but there's no romantic feelings attached to it, it's kind of weird almost.

I don't have one, but yes...I do believe they are very real.

Ya totally, I'm bi my best friend is straight and we have all kinds of bromantic experiences. We go out on retreats to get away from the world together, sleep in each others beds, share really long hugs, talk about everything etc. it's just what happens when two people are really close to each other. It's weird, I think there are just certain people in your life you bond with and could be considered soul mates with no sexual connotations.

That's really sweet, man, that your friend means so much to you. I'm gay, and I like it when straight guys really love each other like that. It reminds me of what Eminem said when Dr. Dre died: he barely left his house for 2 years. He must have loved that man seriously, and that's what loving someone is about. In fact, I think if someone has a friendship that is very deep and loving, it's easier for them to recognize genuine love, as in "romantic" love, because the only difference between platonic love and romantic love is the "desire" part. And if you have a fantastic friendship with another guy, and you're straight, you're romantic relationship should have the same degree of closeness, with the added benefit of romantic/erotic attraction. It's an easy way to tell if you're with the right woman (if you're a straight guy): is she your best friend? If she isn't, you're with the wrong person.

Well, if girls can do it, why not guys

 

[jmadaf]

Uh Dr. Dre is alive and well. His SON died three years ago, but Dre is still kicking.

 

[glasvegas]

I am very close with my mates. We went backpacking together, so we pretty much "I saw your penis, you seen mine". We shared our lives, problems etc.

 

[mcbrion]

dr dre didnt die

You're right: wrong guy. Now I forget the brother's name who died. Ah well, it'll come to me.

 

[mcbrion]

Just remembered: it was Proof who died. Thanks for correcting me.

 

[MascutarHero]

I have bromance! <3 I'm not attracted to him at all, but we take care of each other and have such passion for our "bromance"

 

[Singularity]

I don't know about you guys but I don't (french) kiss my besties, guys or girls. While I don't deny a deep friendship between two guys, when they start acting all touchy-feely like a couple I start to wonder just what kind of friendship they have.

At any rate, I wouldn't want to be the girlfriend of either one...

Yeh, make no mistake, I've definitely had sexual attraction to other men before, but in this case it isn't there between us. We've tried to get a lot "closer" but it's just really weird. But I love him so much. I don't want to bone him, but I do want to and him.
