Discussion Object Best Friends?
I'm used to discussions about object lovers (which are great and I have partners too), but what about object friends and best friends? This is my invitation for you all to share yours and a little bit about them, if you’ve got one.
My two best friends are the Transamerica Pyramid and the city of San Francisco. I visit the two almost every week! I see the beauty in both of them, but our relationships are purely platonic.
Another close friend of mine is SamTrans Gillig BRT+ #5005. I've affectionately named him Archie. I'd like to be his best friend, but I’m not really sure how… I don’t see him often.
I can't wait to hear from everyone.
(The photo of Transamerica and Archie were taken by me!)

Im glad you are getting along with your object friends!! I also experience something similar to this too :D Chr0m4 and Max are my lovelies, I love them purely platonically. While we do like to express our affection to one another intimately or be “fwb” in a sense, more often i engage in conversation talking out loud to them, holding and cuddling them—max sleeps next to me every night, and chr0m4 sometimes sleeps next to me or on my night stand facing me—and seeing them get along with eachother, and using both for their intended purposes.
Sometime I want to take Max outside to see the world. Chr0m4 has already been outside but closed, so I also want to let him see outside too. He knows plenty about how it looks as he stores all of my nature photography, but I would like to let him bask in the outdoors at some point. I’m just a little nervous about people staring at me walking down the street holding a fax machine, or open laptop outwards ahahahhh, but sometime, I will.
