Like making jabs at you (which is playful but would grow old fast) or legit throwing shade your way for it?

It's just playful but as you said it grows old fast.

Call it out bruh. Slut shaming is the stupidest fucking thing in the world

"Ha ha you're having sex!!!"

Seriously.

He certainly sleeps around way more than I do, so its kind of ridiculous. He's a good friend though.

I would. Comfy >>> Fashion

a russian mob person. it's like one step away from a track suit.

I guess there are those skeevy people that wear sweatpants to strip clubs when they get lap dances, too.

edit:

Onesie's should be illegal

for covering too much of this

Those neo-tribal tattoos tho... maybe it's for the best.

Dark Souls made me kill a dog who was protecting his master's grave and guarding his sword.

How did PETA missed this?

I think the pink hair looks good on him.

Kinda looks like a troll doll, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Well let me explain, potential spoiler:

Spoiler

In the DLC of Dark Souls, you learn that his master was overrun by enemies and he shields his great grey wolf companion Sif in a bubble with his shield. Sif sees his master die and he is very saddened by this. You can eventually save Sif and free him. He goes to the grave of his owner.

Spoiler

When you get to the new area where he is, he recognizes you as his savior and he reluctantly wants to fight you. The reason being that he doesn't want you to suffer the same fate as his master.

When his health is down he starts limping and can barely walk

It's all very sad.

Rip doge...

My eyes glazed over when I read that tbh.

I wish friendly, platonic handholding was way more of a thing here in the US. It would make things confusing as hell for us queer folks, but I love holding hands

holding hands is so fucking nice. theres nothing like holding hands with a bro

 

[Kevyt]

And kissing on the cheek too as a way of greeting/saying goodbye between men.

 

[KmA]

Like hand holding, kissing on the cheek, hugging between bros is totally common in South Asia and in parts of the Middle East. The U.S. is wildly insecure in this department.

 

[daripad]

I don't even feel safe being all touchy with my friends. They hug and rub shoulders and back too much but I'm afraid of doing it with them.

Your friends rub their backs with one another? O:

Is this a young people's thing nowadays?

its simply the best bro. try it bro

Yeah in Romania guys/bros will walk around with their arms around a guy's neck but it's all friendly.

 

[Escape Goat]

 

[Replicant]

Fuck them. In all permutations of the words.

You should do it tho. Touching each other like that, hugging etc. feels really nice, even between friends on a friendly, non-sexual basis.

He certainly can rock pink hair. Jealous. O:

Are these random people or should I recognize them? Cute photo.

It's subtle

I may change from people to people though. My other group of friends (which are guys from my town) don't do anything with each other, which may be caused by being in this town for our whole lives and trying to be more "masculine" is the norm, they're definitely less open about many things than my other group of friends.

noo come back to us sis

 

[umop_3pisdn]

I'm surrounded by uptight white people and none of us really do the affection thing. I've gotten so used to it that I prefer it that way.

 

[hateradio]

It was really interesting to see the number of people on Grindr in the Middle East while I was there. What was also interesting was seeing the occasional male-male couple holding hands in public, but I never once saw a male-female or female-female couple holding hands. Purely anecdotal on my part, but there it is.

That's just a friend thing.


I'm sure some gay dudes do it, but as friends.

 

[TheAbsolution]

It depends for me. Some friends are OK with hugging and others are strictly hand shakes only.

I only shake hands. Hand contact is the max.

Some of my friends shake other things. 👼🏻

Or like hand to chest bump or fist bump, yeah.

youre a bad friend

Some of my friends shake other things. ����

what, specifically?

Or like hand to chest bump or fist bump, yeah.

I don't know what that first one is, but fist bumps are acceptable. Hand shakes between friends are weird though - like, it's so formal.

 

[umop_3pisdn]

Chest bumps are for when you're so psyched. Getting that psyched isn't good for keeping my moods regulated. Fist bumps are more for every day social discourse.

I don't know what that first one is, but fist bumps are acceptable. Hand shakes between friends are weird though - like, it's so formal.

You have to make sure no one is concealing weapons. It's like diplomacy 101 ratsky.

 

[Deleted member 465307]

I liked this better before the edit.

I just thought it was cute.

Indeed it is. Not knowing what anyone on here looks like or what's going on in their lives, I was semi-hoping this might have been you and someone else.

 

[Barrylocke]

I guess I've never thought much on it because in a lot of ways I see the greeting as a formality, and that often includes hugs, handshakes, etc. I know the relation of where I stand with the friend based on what we do, what we talk about, and how comfortable we are with each other. I do suppose that physical contact is just another way of being comfortable though.

Of course the logic falls apart when you consider that I hug more of my female friends (although even then it's when they're close). I remember hanging out with a couple of gay acquaintances a couple years back and they all hugged for greetings, which in retrospect did throw me off a little (although I did hug back, when it comes to family I'm used to that). So my rational explanation above is probably not the main reason for it.

 

[Kater]

I don't remember anyone posting photos of themselves with their partners in here. Someone change that!

Spoiler

Or I will be the first to do it when I meet my fox in the near future.

I read that if you and your friend don't have nicknames for each other that you aren't at the deepest level of friendship. I refuse to call people by nicknames so joke is on them.

I think penetration will also qualify someone for the deepest level of friendship.

I ditched that friendship. He had a nickname for me and it creeped me out when he would say it.

Did he say it during or after penetration.
