Some guys have no interest in being anything but the manliest man they can manifest, and maybe I’m wrong, but I think there’s a lot of us who are just waiting for someone to break the ice.

I have a very good friend who started making it a habit to tell me he loves me, and dammit, I’ll say it right back because I do love him like a brother. I don’t love my other friends less, but, that shame that hides in my brain tells me I can’t do that to them.

I’ll sneak it in the group chat. Let’s all try to open that door for each other!
