Obviously you can never replace or substitute good girl friends. But I could never imagine life without my best guy friends. They add a whole new dimension to my life that I am so grateful for. Here are some of the best reasons I keep my good guy friends around.
1. They bring out my silly side.
Some of my best laughs have been with my guy friends. Their goofiness and rowdiness is contagious and it makes things that much more fun.
2. They can minimize the drama in my life.
They are upfront with issues and will go with the flow most of the time. You can talk to them about anything and it tends to stay with them only.
3. They can show me that brotherly love in hard situations.
Sometimes guys just have a different aura about their supportive and protective side. Even as a friend, they can look out for you when things seem to be going wrong or you're emotionally spent. They are good at hard conversations but also with lightening the mood.
4. They are activity oriented.
I have noticed that at least in my guy friends, they always want to be doing something..I like that! Whether its going to play racquetball or just taking a trip to McDonalds...its always an adventure filled with many belly-aching laughs.
5. They often give me a hard time and tease me, but it is all out of love.
This only works if you have a good sense of humor. I personally love teasing the people I love, and guys do not hesitate to give that back. It is an ongoing badgering that is actually just hilarious. Some people don't really understand that form of humor or they don't know how to give it back. Maybe thats just me, but I love it. (I swear I am not a mean person haha)
