Im watching Only Friends and We Are like back to back and. Wildly different college friend groups

Imagine ur in Peems friend group (ur like Toey or someone) and u go to the Yolo bar, and run into Boston and Top and Ray and u watch that fucking speech Ray gives absolutely roasting the fuck out of his friend's relationships and u make a mental note 'do not Ever bring my lover to this bar'

Dhdhhf

Like I love both shows. And I think theyre both somewhat true to life just like, very different viewpoints as theyre true to life. And depicting very different people (with some overlap). And of course, We Are is going for low stakes comfort slice of life genre, while Only Friends is going for dense analysis of friends in the hookup scene.

#only friends the series #we are the series #lb #idk what the overlap of ppl is that enjoy BOTH shows. but it includes me <3 i love them both a lot #like. only friends? to be real here #id say the American college or dating experience? at least for my age group?#it was Very relatable to only friends. not THAT messy. but. i was definitely Ray at times #(crush on friend. the rebound the friend dates) and Mew (and i still am kind of mew...#im demi and i just dont do hookups theyre boring as fuck and i cant get turned on unless im in love)#and ive definitely met people like Sand and dated ppl like Sand and to an extent been hurt so bad i dont believe ppl will #love me back (like Sand)#and ive had friends like Boston (although the friends didnt lie or like destroy friendships) and dated ppl like Boston #hell i even unfortunately dated some ppl like Nick who were like THAT messy and i had to Run asap #but like. Only Friends is very raw and Real about those real romance hangups existing for a LOT of real people.#meanwhile We Are? also relatable. the slow pace and low stakes? honestly also many relationships go that way #while ive been Ray crushing on a friend. ive also developed those crushes just as slow as Q and Toey leaving messages and interacting #or Peem and Phum on odd terms tjen seeing each other more and clicking and not doing anything right away #and my luckier friends have been like Tan: honest and upfront and adoring and with a person they like rather fast #i think the 2 shows are like the spectrum of experience with dating AND friends involved #and its enjoyable to see all sides of that spectrum (for me)
