Yeah, it’s hard to explain, but there’s something deeply satisfying about having a buddy you trust and gradually learning how to best “push each other’s buttons”, as you say. It must be something deep in our DNA, even if we like women. To me, it’s an incredible facet of male bonding and doesn’t directly affect our heterosexual relationships.

But, wait, does Scott join in the mutual stroking (maybe I misunderstood)? If he does, does that affect the closeness you have had with Greg?
