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 11 months ago

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

She's helping her catch her breath. BFFs

I too saw the Supermarket Sweep post

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 33 points 11 months ago (4 children)

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

[–] flamingos@feddit.uk 25 points 11 months ago

Only if I'm the friend.

[–] django@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 11 months ago

Ask your friends, not me.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 11 months ago

Only one way to find out

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

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

[–] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 22 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wow they must be really close friends!

[–] cinabongo@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Yes,. This is a European thing.

[–] Phineaz@feddit.org 22 points 11 months ago (2 children)

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 11 months ago (2 children)

'Romantic' er, I think you mean friendmatic.

[–] Motorheadbanger@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

So friendcore

[–] odium@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Perfectly platonic smooch

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 11 months ago

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

[–] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 20 points 11 months ago

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

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago

Girlfriend is a type of friend

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 11 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.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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 6 points 11 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.

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 15 points 11 months ago

Aw! Seeing such good pals is so heartwarming!

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 9 points 11 months ago

Fucking lmao

[–] madjo 8 points 11 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 11 months ago

Looks more like her coach

[–] Emmie@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 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?
