What is the name of your best friend and were did you met first

My best friend's name is Aaron, we have been so close since before we were even in Kindergarten. I'm not really sure how old we were but i am 1 year older than he is so i guess that means we're known each other for about 25 years now (our parents had us play together as babies). We used to live just a 2 minute walk from each other so that was always good. It's weird, so many people say that 2 people of opposite sexes cant just be FRIENDS - i so don't agree with that - Aaron is my cloest friend & although we don't see each other often due to distance & busy lives, but he'll always be my very best friend in the whole world!
