Oh who am I kidding?

Usually the guy friendships last about 3 months, then when the hopeless factor sets in, they're gone.

The only ones that last are the ones from childhood or school, because you shared so much, and even then, they still would have tried at some point. The only reason these things work is because you tend to go out in a horde, like BF/GB said, or you've both met each other's SO and everybody gets along. And of the few strays who have hung around, usually they phone when something's crappy in their lives and then of course, you can hear the bf in the backround going "what does that loser douche (

) want now?" The work husband thing works because you leave and go home at the end of the day.
It's kinda sad though...
