Some call it a friendship recession: a time when close male friendships sink to their lowest. Here’s how friendships for straight men fall to the wayside – and what could bring them together
I think I could show up at their doors and ask to stay the night in an emergency. They would clothe and feed me and let me cry on their couch. They absolutely will tell the other friends it happened though. My oldest friendship in the group is over 25 years at this point, and the other friendships have all trickled in, the youngest is maybe 6 years, and I only warmed up on one of the guys like 2 months ago.
Our politics aren’t the same. Our religions aren’t the same. Our morals don’t align. One of them I hate. Some of them are kinda sexist. That’s all I mean by low standards. That you can’t kick your friends outta bed because you want to stick to your morals above having friends.
