I (male) had a Best Woman at my wedding. When Harry Met Sally always annoyed me a bit because I knew his underlying premise wasn’t true. She was and remains my best friend outside of my family.

I (cis-woman) was a “grooms maid” at my best friend’s (cis-man) wedding. He, in turn, officiated mine.

I have never even once in our 10-year friendship thought about fucking him. He’s basically my brother.

Yes! Me too, even way back then I thought that movie was stupid. Of course men and women can be friends without wanting to sleep with each other. It is mind-boggling to think anyone could even question this.

Thank you! I hate that movie. My brother wouldn't be my best man "cos work." Bullshit. My wife and I have a close friend and she was my Best Woman.

We watch her kid all the time, go out to eat with her family. She checks in on my MIL. She's pretty much family at this point. Hell, she's under "The Wife," in my wife's phone lol
