friends

It doesn't matter to me. My first best friend was a guy, and my second one was a girl. Those are the only two best friends that I have had. Of course, I'm not the best at keeping "best friends" platonic either, so perhaps I shouldn't answer questions like these. =P The reason I don't care what gender my best friend is, is because I don't care about gender, period. It really doesn't make any difference to me what gender anyone is. I'd far rather think about what their interests are, how they treat me, what we have fun at, etc.
