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 4 months ago

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

[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 46 points 4 months ago

She's helping her catch her breath. BFFs

I too saw the Supermarket Sweep post

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 32 points 4 months ago (4 children)

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

[–] flamingos@feddit.uk 25 points 4 months ago

Only if I'm the friend.

[–] django@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 4 months ago

Ask your friends, not me.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 4 months ago

Only one way to find out

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months 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@feddit.uk 26 points 4 months ago (2 children)

'Romantic' er, I think you mean friendmatic.

[–] Motorheadbanger@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

So friendcore

[–] odium@programming.dev 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Perfectly platonic smooch

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 4 months ago

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

[–] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 22 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Wow they must be really close friends!

[–] cinabongo@lemmy.world 13 points 4 months ago

Yes,. This is a European thing.

[–] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 19 points 4 months ago

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

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 4 months 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 5 points 4 months 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.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 16 points 4 months ago

Girlfriend is a type of friend

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 15 points 4 months ago

Aw! Seeing such good pals is so heartwarming!

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 9 points 4 months ago

Fucking lmao

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 7 points 4 months ago (2 children)

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

[–] matti@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 months ago

Looks more like her coach

[–] Emmie@lemm.ee 0 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months 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?
