Bromance is good for him

-

BRITISH researcher­s have got to the bottom of why men relish a “bromance”.

They sought to understand why a straight man’s close friendship with another male can be more emotionall­y rewarding than a romantic relationsh­ip with a woman.

A bloke’s best mate can leave many women feeling they play second fiddle.

The researcher­s found that men felt “less judged” by their closest male friend than their wife or girlfriend.
