So, I'd assume some of you have that group of friends. And you're all similar in some way or another. And your intimate friends who may even be more similar.

For me, my group of friends are all oddly similar, but different. My closest friend, who is like family (but better) to me, recently came out to me that they desired to become a boy. He wanted to be addressed as Ethan and for us to use masculine pronouns.

And I realized just how similar our whole group was. None of us fit into any clique but our own. We're the group of gender non-conforming, sexuality is pretty fluid, open-minded goofballs.

It's that real intimate friendship where we tell each other everything and open up to each other and can be vulnrable with each other. Does anyone else have that? That deep platonic intimacy?

What is similar about you and your closest friends? What's different? Is there a central theme to you all? Have they changed you? Have you changed them?
