bromance

have you ever heard of this before? well i hadn't until recently. (warning, this may be a bit confusing) so my understanding is that if a guy likes another guy, but not romantically, but they also aren't really long-time friends either, than they are in a bro-mance.  so yeah, two guys who really like each other but aren't gay. i guess that's the short of it.

i think it's a term developed by homophobic people. but in using the term "bro" it seems almost hip. anyway i've been accused of this recently. but isn't the goal of friendship to "really like" one another? i'm still kinda confused
