    Do Bromances exist?
    So let's face it, a lot of us have (or have had) those relationships with our closest of friends that seems to be a little more than platonic but definitely not romantic!
    So the question is - Do Bromances exist and have you experienced one before?

    Bromance does exist.. as a matter of fact i've had a few.. the only difference between bromamce and romance is that you do not have to go through akward post breakup phase and well the romance itself ofcourse..

    Yhep! I do think that they exist and I guess that its just a special kind of friendship... definitely platonic!

    I've got a bromance with two of my closest mates. We've all been friends since Nursery, and are now at Uni, hence the bromance

    Maybe. I don't know about my sexuality sometimes.

    My two flatmates seem to have the strongest bromance going, they even have a nickname that's a combination of their names that we refer to them as. Last week, one of them told me that the other guy was the only person he'd ever do a threesome with by sharing a girl.

    If that's not bromance then I don't know what is.

    YES.
    My boyfriend has such a bromance going on with his best friend. I think it's freaking adorable.

    God I hate this term.

    Its just a good male friend being distinguished from the vast majority of indistinguishable plebs that most men still call a 'mate'.

    Valuing opinions, respecting another man and trusting them doesnt move it up another level, this is THE normal level. If anything, the other friendships dont deserve to be called that.

    Bromances are the absolute **** (as in a good thing) , notice that there is no female equivalent and there never will be because girls are just different to guys and fall out over silly things .
