Well, i have like 3 guys who are part of my Best friends, and quite frankly, they are much better to talk to (sometimes) about things, for one, they are honest and will tell you like it is, and second, they wont tell anyone else your secrets. most girls gossip (even though we'd like to think that we dont...)I love having best guy friends because if i want a guy's perspective on things, i can ask them straight up and usually they give quite interesting answers. and its great to ask them about if a guy you like is giving you "signs" cuz they themselves probably show the same "signs" with girls they like... so definitely, I think its awesome your best friend is a guy! good for you!  |

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

| It's definitely great to have a guy as your best friend, or at least as one of your best friends. I have a guy friend who I consider to be my best friend, and like JoJo said, it's great to have a guy you can trust to go to with questions, and I agree that a lot of times he is easier to hang out with than many girls I know. The hard part comes when they 'like' someone else. My friend recently became interested in another girl(my cousin, nonetheless!) and now it's hard for me to know my place in his life. We hang out, but things feel different now, especially when all three of us together. Somedays it's really hard to deal with...just something to think about. |

Yeah, I agree with Hope139!
I had an awesome guy friend, and he got a girlfriend (who had the same name as me...)
and now I cant really talk and hang with him like before because its really akward... I mean were still friends, but it is alot different, especailly when we're both there and he says "hey Jo..." and we both answer! It's a lil annoying, but i guess it wud be the same as if I got a bf and he didnt have a gf...
It would be really akward if you liked your guy friend though... |

| Haha, I could go there too! We've been friends for 7 years, since I was in grade 6, and we've been good friends all this time. If I'm going to be totally honest though, there have been phases where I've liked him, I don't know if he ever felt anything for me or not, but if he did, it obviously wasn't at the same times as me! Anyway, now that he likes someone else, I've had to totally detach as anything but friends, and that wasn't easy at first. Now, I've come to see that there are a lot more fish in the sea, and somewhere out there God has the man for me, and I'll meet him in His timing! This really has nothing to do with the initial topic I just realized... |

yea, i've been there too. i really liked one of my best guy friends and he liked one of my other friends so they were going out, that was really hard. i liked him for almost 3 1/2 years and then i met this other great guy and we both like each other then i found out that the first guy had liked me and thought i liked him but didn't say anything... but at least we're all still friends. there's always a reason for everything. if i had gone out with the first guy, i never would have liked the second guy (who is amazing). even tho it was hard, it was definitely worth it.

Yeah I know hey? There's always the fear that the other person won't like you, and you're just too scared to make yourself vulnerable, and of course there's the fear of ruining a great relationship. I read the saddest story once about a boy and a girl who liked each other, and neither ever said anything, and she ended up getting married to someone else and then one day she died and her diary was out at her funeral or something, and the guy read it and found out that she had loved him all that time.  It was so sad. But I don't think it was true. This subject just reminded me of that. |

| Aw, that's hard. I'm leaving for college in a couple months, so I'm sad to be saying goodbye, well, mostly only to my guy friend. He's a year younger, and all my girl friends are my age so they're leaving as well, so it's not as hard to say goodbye to them. |

okay, well here's my input.
yeah, guys are great. they can be great listeners and sure, they don't gossip as much as girls. but there's definitely a line. many of you are talking about having trouble liking your guy friends and stuff. and, of course, you don't have that trouble with your girl friends. it's just you, her, and openness. that's what i love about my closest girl friends. i can talk about, frankly, girly girly things. and you all KNOW what i mean. i could and would never, ever go to that with anybody but my future husband. and i surely HOPE none of you are talking about that kind of stuff with any of your guy friends. i have a few close guy friends, and my boyfriend, i consider one of my best friends. but he will definitely never come close to being as near and dear to my heart as the girls i've known and grown up with my entire life. he has a place in my heart, but so do my girl friends. and they all know that. it's different having guy and girl friends. we're at this age now that we hang out with both and of course there's nothing wrong with that. we need those relationships, we were made to be there for each other. but i don't think it's exactly the smartest thing to have just guy friends, or just one specific best guy friend. you need girls, too. though they may be catty and rude sometimes, we need them just as much as those men.
just my thoughts.

| yea, i agree with emilyjanelle, me and my best friend will talk for like hours on the phone and i wouldn't do that with my guy friends. there's absolutely nothing wrong with having guys as best friends, it's best to have guy and girl friends tho. |

| Ya you should have girlfriends too but with how many times these "best girl friends" of mine have stabed me in the back and been COMMPLETLEY TWO-FACED i only have one that i trust and ya you need girlfriends to talk bout girly stuff but for me to trust these to best guy friends soooooooooooooo much is huge!!! i have been hurt by sooooo many guys!!! anyway but i love them both to death and one of them keep me from geting pretty depressed when a guy asked me out on sat. and then Sunday told me he hade a girlfriend and he wasn't even at home he was in a different STATE!!! he was the one who help me through that and i love him cuase on his opinion hes not biased but when telling me what i should do hes on my side and ya i get made at him for the few seconds he acts like hes not on my side but hes ALWAYS there for me! |

yeah, i can see what you're saying, smartblonde77. i haven't had much trouble with girl friends stabbing me in the back, but i know what you mean. you just have to choose very carefully who you tell and what you tell them, y'know? sometimes you just need to ask God for discernment and wisdom about who you should tell and what you should tell someone. all too often we think everybody should know everything about our lives, when it's really not necessary, y'know? i know i'm in that boat, alot, haha.
that's cool that a guy friend helped you get through a depressing time with another guy. sometimes we need that unbiased opinion, i know what you mean. because sometimes girls can just push us on to keep gossiping and assuming things about a situation/person. but usually guys are just like 'what? no, this is how it is.' and that helps a ton.

| mk, so I dunno if any guys read this or not, but i really need your response if you do!! There's this guy i like, like, REALLY like...but he's 2 years older than me. Are guys turned off by younger girls? He's not necessarily popular or anything, but he's a great guy, that's what i like about him. i also can't seem to get his attention! i'm so shy around him and never know what to say. what do i do? |
