Intense FriendshipsThe other night a friend confessed to a really intense friendship when he was young. Nothing sexual or anything, but it did extend to always going to the toilet together. As he put it, "we shared our poos."
Think back to the innocence of blood brothers and being friends forever and tell us the stories of loyalty, commitment and how it all went horribly wrong. You've seen Heavenly Creatures...

grown-up overly closeI used to go out with a not-very-nice man, and about 5 years after we split up I bumped into him. I agreed to have a quick drink- out of pure curiosity.
He told me a scary story- in it's pure stupidity and wrongness.
One of his close friends suspected that his wife had had a one night stand. Which it later transpired she hadn't. but rather than just ask her about it, he decided he was going to sleep with someone else too. not out of desire, you understand- just revenge.
However, he was 'too scared' to do it alone. So he convinced my ex (probably didn't have to try too hard) to sleep with someone else as well, thereby cheating on his wife. And this all happened on the same night, in the same room.
Too intense. Talk about misguided loyalty. I mean, WTF???
(I suspect, in hindsight, that it was the 'same room' bit that was really the point. This group of guys were so misogynistic and so only really liked men as company that the word 'closet' doesn't even come close. Poor chaps)
