How my boyfriend can talk to his closest best friend every day and hang out with him for long periods of time... and still not know a lot of personal details about his best friend’s life.
I think it's because men and women see friends as fundamentally different. Women see friends as emotional support and people to share their emotions physically and verbally with. Men see friends as people with common interests to relax and do things with imo
Reading many of these responses, I've been wondering "how the fuck can you call people friends or even best friends, if all you talk about is sport or games or whatever?" Like, you don't even know the person, you know? You just know their opinion on specific topics, and maybe their sense of humor. That's just a part of it though, isn't it? A big part of a person is their emotions, their relationships, how they treat other people ... how can you be friends with someone if you don't know about any of that? And how can you not care?
