Straights dating: We have been talking for a few months and I think we are officially going out. Gays dating: This is Adam. I met him 2 hours ago at H&M and he is the one. :) Lesbians dating: We have been best friends for 4 years.
12:01 "I just had this immense admiration for her" I remember when I was 12yo and I was in a sports summer camp. There were mostly 14-15yo girls and boys so I was the youngest girl there. But I was very tall and very good at sports so I quickly became friends with a 15yo girl who was THE best at sports. She was the coolesr girl I had ever met. She had Greenday and Avril Lavigne CD's in her portable CD player, she had black hair in a spiky pixie cut and wore sportish/chic clothes. She always picked me first in her team and trusted me when we were playing baseball, basketball or soccer, because I was fearless and she inspired me to be better at every game. We sat together in the bus when we had trips and she let me listen to her CD's as much as I wanted. I had never had a girl best friend because girls bored me to death, always sitting in a corner playing Barbies. So having a summer camp best friend was an exilarating experience for me. I woke up everyday eager to find out what we would do that day. I admired her SO much. When the camp ended we never saw each other again I don't even remember her name... Now that I look back, it was clear that I was kind of in love with her. It even sounds so gay "we met at a sports summer camp" haha It's funny how we sometimes fail to realize something so obvious about ourselves. I literally realized I'm bi a couple of months ago and I'm 27!
My wife and I had been friends for years, we lived together and went our separate ways. We lived together for a second time and within months it was totally different. It makes us laugh because it should have been obvious that we were interested in each other, but I guess a person can explain away all those little brushes of a hand or butterflies when they aren’t ready to face the feelings. 7 years later we have an amazing marriage and a truly beautiful life!
I'm with my best friend. We were friends for 10 years before we got together. I was smitten the whole time but she was with someone else. I didnt dare cross that line as I respected them. But when they broke up it was a whole different story. She came to me a said she had a crush on me. The rest is history. That is the cutest puppy you have. Sweet little family I must say. I love your honesty and respect for each other. Keep up the good work.
I was just smiling the whole time. This kind of stories are always fun to look back on. Excited for the next part of this series. Thank you! Have a great day everyone! 🤗
You always know better when you look back. Sometimes it's better not to recognize the early signs. Maybe if you did, you wouldn't have the kind of relationship you have now. Shell is such a cutie!
Such a charming window into your friendship and relationship, very heartwarming, thank you! I do wonder as well about "standards" or "limits" of platonic friendships... I'm male and have a very emotionally close friendship with a woman (who is meanwhile married to another good friend of mine), and sometimes it feels like "that's not allowed, that kind of closeness is reserved for romantic couples only", and I'm like "whyyy though?".
There’s an old story in Chinese folklore about a magical connection between two people that are destined to be soul mates, called ‘the red string of fate’. The two people connected by the red thread are destined lovers, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. This magical cord may stretch or tangle, but never break. This is you Sadie and Hannah. It’s your destiny to be together 🌹✨🌹
And sometimes people visit temples for “the red line of fate” and ask relationship-related questions to the god of love from Chinese folklore (God's name will be Moon Elder if directly translated)🙂
Sometimes you find a person who would complement your personality, your wavelengths will match perfectly regardless of their gender/age/sexuality. It's a beautiful bond between two people and when you realize it you will nurture it and protect it forever! #beinghuman #plantsandpetsalsocountinthis #Ididnotintendthistobethisserious
Adore this! Friendly request: would you please turn down or eliminate the background music? Love your vids but finding your more recent ones with the music hard to follow. Thanks lovelies for your amazing content!
And again you two did it. I thought of my friend/relationships in the past and I realise I've to evaluate quite a lot of them... Love your conversations!
You two are very blessed to have found each other ! Did people around you notice how deep your friendship was ? And mean because it's very obvious in the way you talk to each other . Shell is just adorable !
Your little family is the cutest! 💗I think many of the things you talked about are qualities of most “good”, supportive female friendships. I think when all of them are added up is when the line begins to get blurry for me and that’s when I start to question my more intimate feelings for my female friends. From listening to you both speak about your relationship now, those things just helped build a great foundation for a successful relationship!
Nostalgia. :😊 This video took me back to your first videos on UA-cam and the reason why I fell in love with this channel. Love this! Thanks, Hannah and Sadie.
asking her to braid your hair reminds me of this dito montiel quote: "I thought she was sleeping until I heard her call out from across the room, “Will you bring me a glass of water?” I did. Then in her always-sleepy tone and drawl she said, “Do you remember when you were a little boy and you would ask your mama to bring you a glass of water?” Yeah. “You know how half the time you weren’t even thirsty. You just wanted that hand that was attached to that glass that was attached to that person you just wanted to stay there until you fell asleep.” She took the glass of water that I brought her and just sat it down full on the table next to her. Wow, I thought. What am I gonna do with love like this."
I have pondered this same idea of where is the line. I believe that you need many people in your life as friends and that line of intensity is something that everyone has to work through. I have had a couple "friends" where we never crossed the physical intimacy so I thought we were just friends but later I realized she was basically my partner in my mind (I was in denial of my feelings). It goes to show that relationships are so intricate and the physical boundary is not the only boundary to skew the line of relationship vs. friendship. Such an interesting topic. Appreciate the discussion you had.
Loved it ladies!! What an amazing start to you all's Prelationship series.. I have a lot girls has friends more than I do of guys.. Girls to me are a lot more easier to talk too.. Never thought it was weird that I did either.. I got this best friend now and all I want to do is hang out with her all the time.. She is sweet and funny and she helps me with my depression and with my anxiety.. And I do the same for her.. But she is just my best friend cause she straight and married with two kids.. I hope to find someone that makes me feel a kind of love like you two have.. What a great book club too.. Burritos, Books and Babes.. You two have an amazing relationship and I am so happy to see more how your love has grown.. Thanks for sharing this.. Can't to see more.. Thanks for a Shell update.. Much love to both.. Stay sweet and keep on rockin!!
I’m a bit disappointed that you guys didn’t go into how it shifted from being platonic into something more. Do you mind answering how that first step was taken
I think your partner should be your best friend, regardless of gender. It's weird to feel like you'd hold someone else up higher than your partner in life. You can definitely have other friends that hit spots your partner doesn't, like enjoying things with someone else that your partner isn't into - but it's weird being married to someone and they aren't t he one you want to spend the most time with. Makes me shake my head when people are not looking forward to spending time with the one they married.
Sounds nice, but being a woman ir man is good to have same sex friendships.Your partner sometimes can be overhwlmed by your expectations, besides nobody can fullfil all your needs.
I said this before, but I still laugh out loud EVERY SINGLE TIME I think to myself, "My God! Sadie is actually going to marry the wedding singer." That is SO funny to me. Like a bad Hallnark movie. Hannah, you know, you absolutely have to still be the wedding singer! Sadie will understand.
A closer female friendship, doesn't feel confusing for me but scary because i feel it's intimate to be able to trust, share and confide to someone. Have you ever thought that maybe your mutual best friend knew or had an idea that you would be perfect for each other and that's why she introduced you to each other ?
This is actually hilarious. This is the exact path as me and my ex. We were fundamentally different though so that sucks, but you guys are so great together
Hello it's my first comment here after binge watching your chanel for awhile. You two are really cute, funny and genuine. Hope all of your video get more watched like this one. wow 80K
Cute puppy you two are amazing iam so glad you found each other as friends and your friendship evolved into the beautiful relationship you have now you are beautiful inside and out love you both so much
i love your videos i also have a friend that is starting off to be very close, i just started playing guitar i love your guitars hanging on the wall behind you guys when you vlog i noticed Hannah your guitar has autographs on them it looks like you got more since i last saw your video who are they ? just wondering thank you love you guys keep up the good job!
I was friends with my wife for two years before we got together. I’m 15 years older than my wife and she’d been stalked by an older man and I didn’t want to look like another creep. Thankfully she has lousy taste in men and asked me on date. Though we have many things in common she’s a far better human being than I am and several grades higher in looks. All I can wish anyone in any relationship is the joy, love and laughter my wife and I have.
Why is it people say you're "official" after you get married? Did you un-officially love someone before you signed a piece of paper that's on file in your respective state (and the county clerk could give 2 sheets about who's on the paper)?
Yep. All very familiar. We would speak to each other in Dutch in front of non-dutch speakers or in references to geeky things we knew nobody else would understand. And following each other around. I made it to a protest just after she had had to leave and we were both totally bummed, like the protest suddenly paled into insignificance. And we started checking on if each other were going to things as part of deciding if we would go. Idk how we didn't realise this before. And we were happy to get texts from each other even at 3am when they woke us up. Lol. Maybe we were never really just friends. Mind blown. Saying goodnight too. And how much I thought about how she is so great. One time she happened to come into the vegetarian cafe while I was in there. I waved and she asked if she could join me. That night I texted her and said "for the record you're always welcome to sit with me"! Can't imagine why people thought we were already together.
I have a best freind for more than 15 years. But when we were at 6th grade we kissed, but it's not like we were into it. We were just exploring our sexualities. She is straight and I'm bisexual. And it's okay if you ever kissed your bestfriend.
Regarding the line between friendship and relationship that you mention in the beginning, here's my two cents. As a straight man, it is very, _very_ , confusing for me, that women in general have friendships that are very intimate. And you know, it is fine, as long as it is only friendships between women. But apparently for women that also extends to friendships with men, and they insist that those are platonic friendships. At that point I become incredulous (the "uhh, no no no, this is not platonic at all, you are mistaken" kind of incredulous). I become incredulous, about how aware everyone is of what's actually happening, about the sexual orientation/sexuality of the guy, about if the girl knows what "platonic" actually means or not. None of that makes sense to me, because if I get close and intimate enough with a female friend of mine to the point we are comfortable cuddling for example, I know that it will eventually lead to me having intrusive thoughts, to me eventually having an erection, and if she notices and takes action, it will lead to a sexual relationship. I realize that women can dissociate the two most of the time ; for men it's generally not so clear, and I'm not talking about some chauvinistic mindset here, but about biological drives that we, men, have. So I know that for me personally, there is some voluntary and necessary emotional and physical distance between me and my female friends, because if there isn't it will lead to a non-platonic, unhealthy friendship of some sort in the worst case scenario, or a sexual or emotional relationship in the best case scenario. Because if there isn't that distance, I know I would be ok having a physical (at least) relationship with any of them, she'd just have to open the door to it. I cannot remember of an exception to this in my entourage. The girl says "he's my best friend", I think to myself "yeah, sure", and let it go, next thing I know the guy is trying to have something more, or, had feelings for her the entire time, and I am not surprised. Happened with myself, happened with friends, with exes' friends… Sometimes it's the other way around, but it somehow always end up like that, short of a few exceptions, main exception being : the guy is gay. I saw that recently with people that are older than me, around 40-50yo maybe. She didn't claim that they were best friends, but they are friends like best friends are, you know. So I thought to myself "well that's… uncommon, but okay, we'll see", and sure enough a couple of months later, he lost his boyfriend during lockdown from some heavy disease (not COVID, but I don't know what), which put the pieces together for me : he's gay (not a surprise), and that's how that friendship with her works without turning sexual. Suddenly it made sense. There is also a difference, I've noticed, between how men view friendships and how women view friendships. Men, when we spend time with friends, the main reason, by far, is to "do things". The secondary reason is to talk about stuff to important people. More or less. What I've noticed is that women spend time with friends mainly to be with those important people, talk to them, provide/receive support and comfort, etc, and secondly only, to do stuff with them. In other words, for men : activities-people, in that order of importance ; and for women : people-activities, in that order of importance. What that means is that when you gals think "he's my friend, I'm gonna be close and intimate emotionally with him", we see that, and see "uh… she's interested in me ? This could be more ?". Because for us, being friends means we basically just do stuff together, but we rarely talk just for the sake of talking. If you constantly try to cross that line, you're trying to get with us is how we see it because this is not what our friends do. We can, just talk about stuff, but most of the time it's about the activities we did together, we are doing together, or we will do together. The focus point is the activities we do, whereas your focus point, is the people you do activities with. So when we try to be friends with you our way AND you try to be friends with us your way, at the same time, there is a confusion, because either way, this is not how this works for both people. Where you guys would give each other emotional support, we would instead tease each other and give each other the tough love. This is how you bond, and this is how we bond. And this is why when my ex told me that she regularly cuddles her "male friends", I was not okay with it, and then later learned that her "best friend" confessed his feelings for her, which again was not a surprise. I had to teach her how to be friends with guys without things turning that way. She whined at the time, ignored, and ended up leaving me for some other guy who was her next "best friend", which only proved my point. The line is confusing, and the only way to make it less confusing is emotional and physical distance.
As a female, this was incredibly insightful to me. I fall more on the “friends being people you do things with” spectrum, which a lot of women don’t do (as you observed, they prefer to be “intimate”), so I found myself naturally gravitating towards men for company. However, once I became a teenager I got worried my friendship and hanging out might get misinterpreted as attempts at dating, so I’ve found myself I guess unconsciously avoiding being friends with men. Which sucks because I miss just doing things with people, so now that I know a bit more about how men view their friendships with women, I feel more comfortable giving it another go.
@@prettylittleravenna I don't think you _can't_ do that anymore, but if you do that with female friends it will appear to them that you're being distant or whatever. In the situation you're describing, would you say you were "one of the guys" ? If yes, then to me it's exactly that.
lonewaer I guess I was. We were just having a good time doing certain activities together and having fun. There were no “deep” conversations which most of the women around me seem to crave. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes it’s healthy and important to talk with someone about your problems and I have no issues with conversations of that type. However, I’ve noticed that a lot of women around me want to do just that, so I miss just hanging out doing stuff like I used to do with the guys.
I am ace and the most important relationships to me are my female friends .now that my husband has died the give my life meaning. They are all do different each one is like a different aspect of my personality. ❤mina
Don't think we are taught to compete. The competitive urge is natural. i taught kids for years and would notice pairs who were competing like mad aged 6 and 7 suddenly realise the benefitsvof cooperating aged 9 10 and real friendships would emerge
My friends girlfriend used to french braid my hair in front of my girlfriend. It's slightly intimate. Was never sure if it was because she was my friend of if she was making fun of a tall guy with a chest length beard walking around with a french braid?
My vet recommends not giving leather hide "bones" to puppies because they can choke to death on them if a bit breaks off and gets caught in the throat.
As an aromantic person what you're saying in the beginning (following her around and wanting to be everywhere she was) sound so creepy to me :D But I guess for a romantic person that's sweet?
Haha. When you have a connection to each other, being around the other person helps calm you down or sometimes even boosts your energy. Without that connection, it's *very* creepy and unsettling. (literal stalkers are never fun) I am a Sapphic Ace and was in love with my closest (straight) female friend in high school 20ish years ago (it was a very confusing time for me since I didn't know that asexuality existed). I also did the following around thing, but I wasn't the only one always doing the following. I'd see her car while I was out somewhere and leave a little note on the windshield or something like that, and if we were at a party I'd make sure I was as close to her as I could be. But she'd often show up to just hang out in my classes during her free periods, so... 🤷🏻♀️ She's still straight and I'm not in love with her anymore, neither of us is doing any following around these days, but she still says to me "you're my person. You're more than my best friend, you're family, but you're also much more than even that. I don't know how else to describe how I feel about you except that you are my person."
If guys hug, it's gay. If I hug a girl, trying to show that I'm gay as fuck, it's just girls being friends. I'm pretty sure I'm an obvious gay when it comes to stereotypes. Never worn make up, lipstick, done my nails, worn things from the girl's section in years, etc... And everybody I know has considered me to be male before finding out I'm female... (Well, I identify as male but I haven't transitioned yet). Does anybody else just keep their feelings to themselves and hope their friends get the hints?
There's no one way to be a woman. You can be feminine as barbie or masculine as fuck, you are still a woman and nothing can change that. Don't let people's perception of you make you change yourself. Be unapologetically you. The transition trend too shall pass away.
《LN 》 Honestly, in my experience straight people rarely think that someone is gay, no matter how they look. You just can’t know based on someone’s look or demeanor. Behavior is a whole other thing and I think it makes it pretty clear if someone is into you. Like one of my coworkers behaved differently towards me and even I, a straight woman, knew something was up and that she probably liked me, and not in a “I wanna be friends” way. And I was right. It’s just different. So if those girls haven’t responded to your flirting, they’re either not interested or they’re scared to act on it. But I feel like they know. In any case, you can always double your flirting efforts, just to be sure 😊
I made it a mission to go out and watch the Seahawks games out at bars, or any place I can go to, where I could try to find me a girlfriend 🤣🤣 but also importantly to watch the game, haha🏈🏈
Straights dating: We have been talking for a few months and I think we are officially going out.

Lesbians dating: We have been best friends for 4 years.
You forgot the U-haul for lesbians on the second date.

This is so accurate that it tipped itself over to terrifying

Burritos, Books and Babes - I feel a series coming on.
I was just smiling the whole time. This kind of stories are always fun to look back on. Excited for the next part of this series.
Thank you!
Have a great day everyone! 🤗
Hmm. This was fun to watch again. Now I’m remembering some friendships in my youth, they were definitely a sign of feelings to come!
You always know better when you look back. Sometimes it's better not to recognize the early signs. Maybe if you did, you wouldn't have the kind of relationship you have now.
Shell is such a cutie!
That puppy is going to grow up into such a happy, safe dog having such good owners! It makes me really happy to think about :)
I’m a bunch older but still so grateful for you guys. You make me feel normal when my religious family shuns me for being me

Omg. This is so cute! Thank you for sharing your story!
This is actually hilarious. This is the exact path as me and my ex. We were fundamentally different though so that sucks, but you guys are so great together
this is the first video that I see, and I'm like aww 🥰 really great! Loved it!

was waiting for this 😭
I was friends with my wife for two years before we got together. I’m 15 years older than my wife and she’d been stalked by an older man and I didn’t want to look like another creep. Thankfully she has lousy taste in men and asked me on date. Though we have many things in common she’s a far better human being than I am and several grades higher in looks.
All I can wish anyone in any relationship is the joy, love and laughter my wife and I have.
Doggo sleeping is the cutest
This is so so sweet 😭
Kinda wonderin’, how to tell it’s more than “just friends”?
Aww she is so adorable
I love the song! Would you mind give us the name and singer? Thanks!
OMG... I thought I was the only person who says "I'm not straight".
That shoulder shimmy tho! :)
Loved it
Play the song and post it here
Funny, touching and beautiful.
Nice vlog girls 🥰
I would always follow her around, there was this one time where she didn't even know I was there, I mean, I'm not a stalker at all :P
Why is it people say you're "official" after you get married? Did you un-officially love someone before you signed a piece of paper that's on file in your respective state (and the county clerk could give 2 sheets about who's on the paper)?
Hey Hy!! Thanks 4 sharing🤩🤗 Sunday and this is a highlight great☺️👍 plz do more 🤓do more. Big hugs, happy thoughts to U
Yep. All very familiar. We would speak to each other in Dutch in front of non-dutch speakers or in references to geeky things we knew nobody else would understand. And following each other around. I made it to a protest just after she had had to leave and we were both totally bummed, like the protest suddenly paled into insignificance. And we started checking on if each other were going to things as part of deciding if we would go. Idk how we didn't realise this before. And we were happy to get texts from each other even at 3am when they woke us up. Lol. Maybe we were never really just friends. Mind blown. Saying goodnight too. And how much I thought about how she is so great. One time she happened to come into the vegetarian cafe while I was in there. I waved and she asked if she could join me. That night I texted her and said "for the record you're always welcome to sit with me"! Can't imagine why people thought we were already together.
1) 1:02 Does it make it more confusing? YES
My random algorithmic UA-cam videos went from epic 12 second memes to questionable "our first kiss as a lesbian couple" testimonies. And I'm-
@3:30 well..it is "French" braiding.
Hahaha... Clever!
Off topic but what breed is Shell hope that is correctly spelled, he is a cool looking little pup, what inspired the name?
What happennd with the wedding? Is there a story somewheare?
in your minds when you were braiding hair did you have the urge to kiss each other,or just pass it off as untouchable since both were dating guys
I have a best freind for more than 15 years. But when we were at 6th grade we kissed, but it's not like we were into it. We were just exploring our sexualities. She is straight and I'm bisexual. And it's okay if you ever kissed your bestfriend.
Regarding the line between friendship and relationship that you mention in the beginning, here's my two cents.
As a straight man, it is very, _very_ , confusing for me, that women in general have friendships that are very intimate. And you know, it is fine, as long as it is only friendships between women. But apparently for women that also extends to friendships with men, and they insist that those are platonic friendships. At that point I become incredulous (the "uhh, no no no, this is not platonic at all, you are mistaken" kind of incredulous). I become incredulous, about how aware everyone is of what's actually happening, about the sexual orientation/sexuality of the guy, about if the girl knows what "platonic" actually means or not.
None of that makes sense to me, because if I get close and intimate enough with a female friend of mine to the point we are comfortable cuddling for example, I know that it will eventually lead to me having intrusive thoughts, to me eventually having an erection, and if she notices and takes action, it will lead to a sexual relationship. I realize that women can dissociate the two most of the time ; for men it's generally not so clear, and I'm not talking about some chauvinistic mindset here, but about biological drives that we, men, have.
So I know that for me personally, there is some voluntary and necessary emotional and physical distance between me and my female friends, because if there isn't it will lead to a non-platonic, unhealthy friendship of some sort in the worst case scenario, or a sexual or emotional relationship in the best case scenario. Because if there isn't that distance, I know I would be ok having a physical (at least) relationship with any of them, she'd just have to open the door to it.
I cannot remember of an exception to this in my entourage. The girl says "he's my best friend", I think to myself "yeah, sure", and let it go, next thing I know the guy is trying to have something more, or, had feelings for her the entire time, and I am not surprised. Happened with myself, happened with friends, with exes' friends… Sometimes it's the other way around, but it somehow always end up like that, short of a few exceptions, main exception being : the guy is gay. I saw that recently with people that are older than me, around 40-50yo maybe. She didn't claim that they were best friends, but they are friends like best friends are, you know. So I thought to myself "well that's… uncommon, but okay, we'll see", and sure enough a couple of months later, he lost his boyfriend during lockdown from some heavy disease (not COVID, but I don't know what), which put the pieces together for me : he's gay (not a surprise), and that's how that friendship with her works without turning sexual. Suddenly it made sense.
There is also a difference, I've noticed, between how men view friendships and how women view friendships. Men, when we spend time with friends, the main reason, by far, is to "do things". The secondary reason is to talk about stuff to important people. More or less. What I've noticed is that women spend time with friends mainly to be with those important people, talk to them, provide/receive support and comfort, etc, and secondly only, to do stuff with them. In other words, for men : activities-people, in that order of importance ; and for women : people-activities, in that order of importance.
What that means is that when you gals think "he's my friend, I'm gonna be close and intimate emotionally with him", we see that, and see "uh… she's interested in me ? This could be more ?". Because for us, being friends means we basically just do stuff together, but we rarely talk just for the sake of talking. If you constantly try to cross that line, you're trying to get with us is how we see it because this is not what our friends do. We can, just talk about stuff, but most of the time it's about the activities we did together, we are doing together, or we will do together. The focus point is the activities we do, whereas your focus point, is the people you do activities with. So when we try to be friends with you our way AND you try to be friends with us your way, at the same time, there is a confusion, because either way, this is not how this works for both people. Where you guys would give each other emotional support, we would instead tease each other and give each other the tough love. This is how you bond, and this is how we bond.
And this is why when my ex told me that she regularly cuddles her "male friends", I was not okay with it, and then later learned that her "best friend" confessed his feelings for her, which again was not a surprise. I had to teach her how to be friends with guys without things turning that way. She whined at the time, ignored, and ended up leaving me for some other guy who was her next "best friend", which only proved my point.
The line is confusing, and the only way to make it less confusing is emotional and physical distance.
As a female, this was incredibly insightful to me. I fall more on the “friends being people you do things with” spectrum, which a lot of women don’t do (as you observed, they prefer to be “intimate”), so I found myself naturally gravitating towards men for company. However, once I became a teenager I got worried my friendship and hanging out might get misinterpreted as attempts at dating, so I’ve found myself I guess unconsciously avoiding being friends with men. Which sucks because I miss just doing things with people, so now that I know a bit more about how men view their friendships with women, I feel more comfortable giving it another go.
@@prettylittleravenna I don't think you _can't_ do that anymore, but if you do that with female friends it will appear to them that you're being distant or whatever.
In the situation you're describing, would you say you were "one of the guys" ? If yes, then to me it's exactly that.
lonewaer I guess I was. We were just having a good time doing certain activities together and having fun. There were no “deep” conversations which most of the women around me seem to crave. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes it’s healthy and important to talk with someone about your problems and I have no issues with conversations of that type. However, I’ve noticed that a lot of women around me want to do just that, so I miss just hanging out doing stuff like I used to do with the guys.
My favorite couple!!
That was such an interesting video! I love the topic!
to answer one of the first questions. It is super SUPER confusing that female friendships are closer
Very good conversation great job with the dog canon I’m a born our time dog school would be greatSeems like shell catches on quick
Sooooo cuuuuute'
What breed is your puppy?
I want to know which was spanish song
The best giveaway is that you fell in love ❤
if you see me being in love with my best friend then no you didn't ❤
Btw, can we get some recommendations from ur secret book club? 😝
I am ace and the most important relationships to me are my female friends .now that my husband has died the give my life meaning. They are all do different each one is like a different aspect of my personality. ❤mina
Yeah this is very relatable
I think I'm demi bi romantic. Kinda in love with my bff though I'm stuck on what to do about it because I'm scared.
first like + comment :)
damn! she helped you set up your classroom?
Don't think we are taught to compete. The competitive urge is natural. i taught kids for years and would notice pairs who were competing like mad aged 6 and 7 suddenly realise the benefitsvof cooperating aged 9 10 and real friendships would emerge
My friends girlfriend used to french braid my hair in front of my girlfriend. It's slightly intimate. Was never sure if it was because she was my friend of if she was making fun of a tall guy with a chest length beard walking around with a french braid?

My vet recommends not giving leather hide "bones" to puppies because they can choke to death on them if a bit breaks off and gets caught in the throat.
Don’t worry! It’s called “No-Hide” by Earth Animal🐶

The background music starts to shred your nerves after a few minutes and makes it hard to follow the story.
Cute
A mi me encanta su español ! ❤️
What is mean prelationship？
I like the color of your pup😁
As an aromantic person what you're saying in the beginning (following her around and wanting to be everywhere she was) sound so creepy to me :D But I guess for a romantic person that's sweet?
Haha. When you have a connection to each other, being around the other person helps calm you down or sometimes even boosts your energy. Without that connection, it's *very* creepy and unsettling. (literal stalkers are never fun)
I am a Sapphic Ace and was in love with my closest (straight) female friend in high school 20ish years ago (it was a very confusing time for me since I didn't know that asexuality existed). I also did the following around thing, but I wasn't the only one always doing the following. I'd see her car while I was out somewhere and leave a little note on the windshield or something like that, and if we were at a party I'd make sure I was as close to her as I could be. But she'd often show up to just hang out in my classes during her free periods, so... 🤷🏻♀️
She's still straight and I'm not in love with her anymore, neither of us is doing any following around these days, but she still says to me "you're my person. You're more than my best friend, you're family, but you're also much more than even that. I don't know how else to describe how I feel about you except that you are my person."

If guys hug, it's gay. If I hug a girl, trying to show that I'm gay as fuck, it's just girls being friends.
I'm pretty sure I'm an obvious gay when it comes to stereotypes.
Never worn make up, lipstick, done my nails, worn things from the girl's section in years, etc...
And everybody I know has considered me to be male before finding out I'm female... (Well, I identify as male but I haven't transitioned yet).
Does anybody else just keep their feelings to themselves and hope their friends get the hints?
There's no one way to be a woman. You can be feminine as barbie or masculine as fuck, you are still a woman and nothing can change that. Don't let people's perception of you make you change yourself. Be unapologetically you. The transition trend too shall pass away.
《LN 》 Honestly, in my experience straight people rarely think that someone is gay, no matter how they look. You just can’t know based on someone’s look or demeanor. Behavior is a whole other thing and I think it makes it pretty clear if someone is into you. Like one of my coworkers behaved differently towards me and even I, a straight woman, knew something was up and that she probably liked me, and not in a “I wanna be friends” way. And I was right. It’s just different. So if those girls haven’t responded to your flirting, they’re either not interested or they’re scared to act on it. But I feel like they know. In any case, you can always double your flirting efforts, just to be sure 😊
Stalking, cyber stalking on instagram..... touching hair , head is very intimate..
I made it a mission to go out and watch the Seahawks games out at bars, or any place I can go to, where I could try to find me a girlfriend 🤣🤣 but also importantly to watch the game, haha🏈🏈
