      I updated my profile pic on teams with a professional shot after a fresh shave and a button down.

      I’m normally unshaven and in gaming t shirts.

      Needless to say I got lots of compliments from both guys and girls in meetings on “cleaning up good” and “looking fresh”

      Felt good.

    What, you women have never met a straight man before!? We honk each others’ dongs all the time! It’s called being interested in your friends!!!

    Idk, in my friend group it’s 50-50 for… “Hey, you look less like shit today, did you get a nose job?”

    Or

    “Good lord, stay away from me with that new haircut. I’m already nursing a semi!”

    Jokes on you, me and my friends just straight up flirt as compliments like “HOLY SHIT! Who is this hot dude?”

      Was just going to say that this really depends on you and your friends. Got one friend group that is all about cuddling drunk, giving shoulder massages and complimenting each other. Got another that is more about board games and being sure feet don’t touch accidentally under the table. All friends are valid <3

        I’ll drink to that. I can’t do anything with my male friend without feeling like I have to make these kind of statements after complimenting them on anything. This shit is so internalized. If i have children someday, I will not be teaching them to be like this.

        You wanna be touchy freely with your best guy friends, and its not sexual go right ahead. I should be able to give my friends hugs and not feel like it’s a weird thing to do.
