Pat,
You put it in a nutshell !
People's evaluation of themselves, Bobbi related to her friends feelings, she is obviously comfortable with that, I have to say I feel the same way. The fact someone else doesn't feel that doesn't mean it's not a true feeling. You can rename it female companion if it pleases people , but it is a different feeling from a male to female situation.
Sara Jessica,
I don't make these remarks to be contentious, I'm not interested in sparking an argument for the sake of it , I'm not a troll and I'm certainly not a POLAR BEAR !!
Kaitlyn,
It may have started as feelings associated with sex, but it has developed into a more embracing feeling .
