Were you listening to my conversation last weekend (lol)? I was discussing this same issue of sorts. In my case, some of my closest female friends and I met prior to sixth grade. Now that we are adults and some have husbands and boyfriends, etc., all I hear is my husband this OR boyfriend that. We can't even go to dinner or lunch without my girls stating "I've got to ask my husband or check with him first." Give me a break! I remember when the chicks met the guys and have even been a participant IN many of their weddings. Now there is this fear of security. One would think that after knowing another for more than fifteen years of friendship if a romantic relationship or sexual encounter has not occurred then it is safe that parties will always be just
F R I N D S!
Post Script: Why do women also say "my husband" and not the brother's name?
