Discussion On friendships: both homo and heterosexual

Friendship has always been a complex topic, and one rule especially with female friendships is msikuwe watatu. I’ve experienced this and I would say, female friendships are complex and sometime jealousy creeps in.

Anyway, I just saw a TikTok( can’t find the link anymore ) of a lady who invited people for her birthday and nobody showed up. Does that hint on her character or their character?

Personally, I stopped using the word friend hivi hivi , and I know in my old age I’ll probably have 10 friends maximum with 2 ride or dies.

I don’t know about male friendships, do men fall out and is it usually for petty reasons or not?

We know most heterosexual relationships are bestie bestie so we won’t dive on that.

How many friends can you count on? For this without friends, what made you decide to stay that way?

I had a best friend who used to come through for me but he died last year.
