An ode to my best and oldest friend

[image description: me and my best friend Ethan at 18. Ethan is tall with brown curly hair and brown eyes and is wearing a blue button-down shirt. I’m shorter with straight light brown hair down to my shoulders and green eyes and am wearing a white t-shirt.]

I’m lucky. I met my best friend in the world when we were five years old and we’ve been best friends ever since. I’m 31 now, so that’s 26 years!

I had the opportunity to write about me and Ethan and growing up as boy-girl BFFs in an evangelical world that didn’t believe friendships like ours were possible or could be anything other than romantic. Please give it a read––that lets the publication know you enjoy my work so they’re more likely to let me continue writing for them.

Thank you for your support and cheers to all the boy-girl best friends of the world!
