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 2 years ago

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

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 2 years ago (2 children)

'Romantic' er, I think you mean friendmatic.

[–] Motorheadbanger@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

So friendcore

Perfectly platonic smooch

[–] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 years 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 2 years ago (1 children)

Wow they must be really close friends!

[–] cinabongo@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

Yes,. This is a European thing.

[–] TSG_Asmodeus@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

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

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

Girlfriend is a type of friend

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...

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 2 years ago

Aw! Seeing such good pals is so heartwarming!

[–] casmael@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

Fucking lmao

[–] madjo@feddit.nl 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

[–] matti@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Looks more like her coach

[–] Emmie@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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?
