"If he'd try a thing, I know you'd say no. But you two are only friends as long as you say so."
Eliud Espinoza ❤
I know this as facts from both sides
Exactly bro and the funny thing is I dont believe in best friends in a relationship
Exactly felt that to the core
7 years later and I still come back to this amazing poem.
Me too,I keep coming every year back to it
Me too
Thank you for watching, it means the world! Be sure to subscribe to my channel to keep up with the latest videos :)
Sophia Thakur this is my favorite duet poem. I don't like duet poems, but this one is too good and true. I lost my best friend because her man peeped the same thing and made her cut me off. she chose him over me and it hurt. but in his defense we used to say stuff like 'if we're both single at (insert age here) then we'll marry each other 😂 and the realist line was 'You're only friends as long as YOU say so'. if she ever threw it at me, I'd have swung away at it XD just the nature of men. if she's attractive, we want to sleep with her.
Sophia Thakur ❤🔥
@@J.I.0that was real
9 years later and I still remember this word for word , one of my fav spoken words ❤️
I envy you ,I wish I could recite this word for word
I’m here again. In 2023. Damn. I was so young when I first listened to this. Now, I deeply understand these words because I’m a tad older and can relate.
Also, I think his “points” were valid.
Well done, for the umpteenth time, Sophia! 🤍
This is one of the videos that made me fall in love with spoken word poetry and also gave it a shot in 2013. I had to come back to watch it because it's my spoken word first love and I'm currently thinking of going back to doing spoken word poetry.
The line when he says "your only friends because you say so" is so perfect because if your girl is beautiful like that not many guys are turning her down especially there "Best Friends"
Kinda upset there wasn't really and ending but I loved it anyways hah
Amen 👐
I'm falling in love with poetry. This is magic
same. never thought i would love it so much

If he tried something I know you'll say no, but you're only "friends" so long as YOU say so!
man... its like that some times... It's cool to get the girls insight on this subject, but to be honest, Just speaking for myself here, what she said is a hard pill to swallow as a man. I'm single now but when I was in a committed relationship I didn't like "friends". The thought of my girl needing another man in her life made me feel insecure about where I stood in her life. It created tension, or maybe I did. Great poem.

thank you
Southern Mason glad it helped :)
Niaz Ahamed thanks
good shit!
This poem hit home!!! I dealt with this issue in my last relationship. She was best friends w/her ex boyfriend, it was hell for me back then. LOVE IT!!
Donius M ❤
That's opposite sex friendship in a nutshell.
why can't people realise that guys and girls can just be friends
Miss Shy no girls can be friends with guys but guys cant be friends with girls
mockman Shut the fuck up. I have a shitload of friends who are girls.
Imnotmagiic I too am friendzoned
Raul Cabral Yeah the problem is that you guys treat girls like goddesses. Girls don't want a guy who is easy. I don't give a damn about them and that makes me get all the pussy i want.
Sad truth man I agree with you
Yessssss PERFECT!!!
YESS!!! and Sophia looks beautiful in this
This is deep and I feel this speaks truth. Trust is an important things to have, but women need to understand that its not you we don't trust. Its the actual guy because honestly MOST not all guys would not pass up the opportunity to sleep with you if it could happen even if you did have a boyfriend or not.
who knew poetry whould unravel the dynamics of relationship we have n make as
and with people
Ajoeanna Brown moral of the story dont turn friends into bf caus when u have friends they will use that as if its a weapon
Ajoeanna Brownkkkook. Mm mom k
mmmmmmkmmok momn. LkklKkkkkokOK komm mk skill JJ and am
wat?
Ajoeanna Brown 🔥❤
WOOOOOW!!!!!!
'Its easy to say when you're looking on the outside....', I love that line and the whole poem itself.
Ive watched this repeatedly on ma bro's laptop..and I'm surely loving it...
2023. Still the BEST spoken word piece !!
I love this! I was waiting for him to ask how she would feel if the tables were turned.
omggg .. i just loved thiss !! .. who else replayed like 50 times
I just can't stop replaying it!!! I'm not sure about how many times I've already watched.
I have it downloaded on my phone haha
shanice williams 💪
I love how they didn't give us a answer of how to fix this issue not making it bias leaving the listener to make his or her own choice beautiful
Tommy Girl ❤
This is EXACTLY what me and my girl went we still aint talked about it, every time i mention it, we cuss.. and fuss, and it cause a rift between the both of us... its like everything we discuss , becomes a cause for distrust, just because the way we started , is the way she dealing with with her ex .. and some next man, causing me to feel a lack of trust . And she won't see it, it always turns out being my fault, If I had this with some girl, it would cause hell on this world, why women don't see what they do to us.. then the claim and scream, oh, you don't trust ? >B/

If he tried a thing I know that you'd say no, but you two are friends as long as you say so
Hey Candacy🙌
lol hey Nerisa Elias ^_^
mmmmmmm
Incredible,
the flow, the content
mmmmmmm
This is absolutely fantastic!!!! Love it
BEAUTIFUL!!!! You guys are terrific. Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!! The words, drama, the topical situation...BEAUTIFUL!!!
This is crazy how true it is. They want to hug and talk 24/7 like they together but she ultimately wants to say that I am her bf. I can relate to this. this has happened to me on one occasion. Shout out to this crew that made this poem so perfect.
10 years later and I’m still back here 💗
"and he got to see emotions that were blurred to me" whooah that line 🤯
Nice, this highlights all the common faults in modern relationships and how complicated it is for a couple to do the most simple thing and communicate.
4 years and I still come back to listen to this poem
This is beautiful. creativity over the skies . bless your soul
This spoken word is amazing! You guys have a great chemistry you just flow I loved every minute of it keep going guys!
I love the mix up nd how it played together telling the past the present nd two very diffrent futors cuz she thinks thyll b togethr but he thinks shell end up wit her “friend"
I watched this and 100% relate to every word! My girlfriend's got a number of "male best friends" and Im trying to not be that guy whos "controling" her. This creates insecurities to me, yeah you probably say but I should voice out how I feel, but how do you do that when you know shes got a shoulder to cry on when to you shes your only shoulder to cry on? Its like Im pouring myself out empty to her and yet she doesnt pour herself out empty to me, so I remain empty and she remains full, and when my empty self makes a lot of noise like an empty tin, she says Im just b!tchin... male best friends arent good in a relationship, so are female bestfriends. I told her once that attention is a currency in a relationship, and the little attention you give elsewhere is going to be like an investment that will grow and grow until it matures and God knows when will that be and how we will handle it, "we" probably wont, they are likely to handle it. Give a man the little time of yours a day, he can sell you the world and for women, some of you dont understand your weakness which is our strength, which is how we end up wiht you, thats what scares us, that we know he may say he is just a friend, we know you see him only as a friend and thats just you, but to him, the more attention he gets from you, the more he doesnt see my existence. Because if he sees and respects my presence, he wouldnt bother you in our time or even as much. Sophia said he cares like a bestfriend should...then if he cares, what am I here for? Am I not supposed to be your bestfriend? Who cares for you better between me and him? See what just happened? Now Im starting to compare me and him and this love is now a competition and youre not even aware youre the award! You think youre hanging on my neck like a medal yet youre really bending my neck and allowing yourself to slide out slowly...I dont know, Im hurt, everyday I think of this, and worse is we are in a long distance relationship, he stays closer to her, he sees her almost everyday, I love her with all my heart! On God I do! But she seems to be blind to the little things that could make me an ex
It frustrates me when guys say "its not you we don't trust, it's him." Its offensive, because you're implying that I am incapable of saying 'no' if a sexual opportunity arises. When I'm with someone, I'm WITH that person and no one else. I've kicked guy friends out of my house and never spoken to them again because I could see their intentions. Girls are capable of saying no. We're capable or turning down situations that men may see as 'tempting'. Because there's nothing tempting about throwing away a lifetime of love for a night of lust.
But can u honestly say if ur boyfriend had a girl "best"friend, hanging out by themselves, talking on the phone about y'all arguments, having a special bond, that u wouldn't have a problem with that?
+Nevaeh Heaven no woman can say they agree with that and if she says she does she's just saying it to prove you wrong.
+Nicole Reis True, ofc girls can say no. But if your SO felt as uncomfortable about your friend as the guy in the video, isn't it enough? Would you rather have your SO trying to handle that?
You commented: "its not you we don't trust, it's him." Its offensive, because you're implying that I am incapable of saying 'no' if a sexual opportunity arises.
Nicole, it might not be any kind of implication. It might simply be the believable fact, that your SO trusts and knows you, way more than he knows your friend. I agree though, that you should trust your partner no matter what. With that said, did you notice in the video how the girl didn't deny any of her SO's ideas about her friend liking her more than a friend? She didn't deny or argue the thought of her friend having intimate feelings for her. This doesn't mean she thinks it's true, but that should have been the underlining explanation for his feelings; She instead overlooked that and said that when they part, they part as friends. She doesn't pay any mind to the fact that she is putting herself in situations whereby the supposed feelings her friend has for her could possibly grow; she doesn't pay any mind to the fact that her SO feels uncomfortable about her doing that.
She portrays "deal with it. I don't care. It's your insecurity."
If my SO felt insecure about a particular person in my life. The first thing I'd do is explain everything in detail to her. If she brings it up again or questions it more, I'd answer all her questions, and try to see her perspective as to why she felt that way. If I think she has a point and maybe my friend does seem to have feelings for me, I would distance myself from the person asap. In the case where she could be overreacting, I'd try to persuade her. And if she brought it up once again, and told me that it really makes her uncomfortable, I wouldn't question it further. Regardless of my friend's intent, if it makes my SO feel that way, I'd choose my SO's happiness/comfort over a friend.
Watch the news, it shows that the word no doesn't mean jackshit for some people. and don't say but he's my friend he would never do that. The rapist, the pedophile, the criminal is always the the nice neighbour nobody expects it from. stop being naive.
Nicole Reis ❤
funny how they only just "danced around" the issue from the female perspective and never really addressed it.
He listens to my problems like a best friend should... ❣️
this is my favourite video like it makes life clear more and to find what is friends and how to deal with relationship problems
Dope .. so much truth in this simple piece. Thanks y'all for sharing your gift x
I love this poem. I love you how finished each other's sentences. You guys did a great job

+ash86marie psychologists and relationship experts say the number 1 need of a man is respect
Forget a man, it's just rude to interrupt people when they are talking
Brilliant , understand both arguments just the guys relates to me more
oh my god. This was ridiculously accurate but that " i know you would say no, but you guys are only friends because YOU say so" line, gave me chills man
Jarell James ❤

Passin Thru ❤
What inspired this? This this is simply amazing words cannot describe the greatness of this.
Speechless. .... That was incredible.
Really impressive! Great work guys
Your significant other should be your best friend. Also she should never confide in another man, only women, about her relationship problems. Also being on the phone past 9/10pm with another man is definitely crossing boundaries, no excuse. #lovethis!
THIS IS AMAZING! WELL DONE GUYS!!
theohsospontaneous Fr
they're so good! !
Perfect!perfect!perfect!Keep it up guys
I love this poem.
