Guys can be your BFF's too.

When did girls figure out guys have great friend potential? There always have been, and always will be, girls who know the value of friendships with boys. These girls aren't tomboys or girl-hatin' or pulling that "friends with benefits" thing, secretly making out in clandestine locations. They are girls just like you who simply don't see boys as romance-only options. Guys are made for hangin' out and are all special in their own ways.

A guy friend is your personal concierge into the Minds of Men. Why are guys so into video games--is World of Warcraft really that amazing? How come the cute guy in the bar doesn't care if he has a gross crusty in the corner of his mouth? Does your crush realize that, even though he tikes you back, waiting until the next millenium to call you just isn't cool? A guy friend makes all these boy mysteries (and so much more) oh-so crystal clear.

A guy friend is also as much fun as your girl best friend, except better since what he lacks is mindless drama. Because guess what--he honestly doesn't give a hoot what you look like since he's not looking. (LOL) Call the fashion police because you wore an apricot tee with plum capris? Oh, puh-lease! He serves up a mini-break from the sticky side of girlness. He'll hang out, order chili on your shared French fries, maybe even go sneaker shopping. He's a blast, and he just happens to be a guy.

As for myself, I've never felt lucky having guy friends who's willing to answer their phones 24/7 when you needed someone to talk to. Except of course, when they're on a date or with the girlfriend. Hahaha. You are last in their priority list but still be the first one to be there when you feel sad. Guy friends just know (mental telepathy) when you need rescuing. They will let you drink and have fun until you drop but will never let any other guy bring you home except him. They will listen to your problems, will try to be all ears even if it's boring them to death.

It's great to have guy friends, as long as you don't cross the thin thin line to romance. But if it happens, he feels the same way, and you're both not committed. Best friends, I think will make an excellent couple too. :)
