I kissed her romantically as a joke , it's a running gag in our friend group. And then, as a joke , I squeezed her butt, because, that's just what good friends do you know??

I even married her, you know for the tax breaks.

They're just really frugal. How else are you gonna share lip gloss if you forget to pack it?

Only the best of friends lovingly cradle your head like that as they kiss you.

Is it hot here?

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 month ago

that'd be the global warming, yes, which also explains why i'm so wet

[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 45 points 1 month ago

She's helping her catch her breath. BFFs

I too saw the Supermarket Sweep post

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 30 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Wait a minute. I have friends. Can I also do this with my friends?

[–] flamingos 24 points 1 month ago

Only if I'm the friend.

[–] django@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 1 month ago

Ask your friends, not me.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 month ago

Only one way to find out

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Absolutely! One hundred percent! Do it and post the results.

Damn, this picture looks romantic as ... uh, "fuck" would make for a bad choice here, but you know what I mean.

[–] flamingos 25 points 1 month ago (2 children)

'Romantic' er, I think you mean friendmatic.

[–] Motorheadbanger@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

So friendcore

[–] odium@programming.dev 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Perfectly platonic smooch

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

Well yeah, of course fuck would be a bad choice as these women clearly are very good friends!

[–] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wow they must be really close friends!

[–] cinabongo@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

Yes,. This is a European thing.

[–] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

I've been going about this friendship thing the wrong way this whole time!

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Girlfriend is a type of friend

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yes! This is one of the few subs that I've been missing in my life, despite being cis/het. Calling out LGBTQ+ erasure is extremely important, as is pointing out the comically ludicrous lengths that some will go to in order to avoid acknowledging loving LGBTQ+ relationships.

There's a UK daytime TV show (Escape to the Country maybe, although there's seemingly a ton of shows to cater to the UK hobby of obsessing over house prices). I swear, every time I've seen it on at work, it's always "lifelong friends" and a same-sex couple buying.

Being on in the daytime, it's clearly aimed at all the Daily Mail reading pensioners. I've no idea how they haven't cottoned on yet. They must all be sitting there thinking it's perfectly normal that good friends spend £850,000 on a country house together...

[–] Tryptaminev@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

They just bachelors mate. They're wingmates looking out for each other mate. Now the house is double impressive than what they could have afforded by themselves. Chicks gonna love it mate.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 15 points 1 month ago

Aw! Seeing such good pals is so heartwarming!

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago

Fucking lmao

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I don't have friends who kiss me like that. I must be doing it wrong...

[–] matti@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

Looks more like her coach

[–] Emmie@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Holy shit for a moment I understood what alloromantic is like, perks of edibles

So so she is like extremely fond of her because she like loves her right and thus this kiss isn’t some mildly sexual pleasure but an act of appreciation of the second person… yes?
