My Girlfriends.

What is the appropriate number of girlfriends one should have? Two? Four? Five? At most any point in my life I could say that the quantity varies over the years. I believe the important question is not about quantity, but like everything else that matters, it has more to do with quality! Two of the things I have noticed since I became north of 40 is this.... The first is having one or two dependable and reliable girlfriends can be more valuable than any anti-depressant. Secondly, gravitating towards gals that are less like you, but just as mature and accepting give you the opportunity to have different desires mirrored back to you. Let me explain.
I have never been a real prissy girl, but at times wondered what it would be like. My BFF Sandra is very feminine and princess like..... exactly the type of girl I stayed away from back in high school. Now however, I find her princess personality refreshing and comforting. My other BFF Becca is definitely all woman, but not at all a princess. She is strong, brave, and flexible. She and Sandra have very little in common, but when the three of us are together it is the best of times.
Upon reflection I have decided that those two wonderful women and their defined personalities combined with my laid back humorous personality make the perfect woman! If the three of us were combined into one the world would never be the same.
I hold up my glass of wine and toast girlfriends everywhere! Here's to you Becca & Sandra.... together we are every mans dream.... or nightmare.
