Partners

Once upon a time, male friends were just 'friends.'  Really, they were just buds, homies, pals, folks who hung out together without the expectation of anything romantic occurring.  Apparently guys just weren't in touch with their feelings back then, because now it's this thing called a 'bromance.'  It has the exact same characteristics of the other stuff, but a new name (see 'Carousel of Progress' and root beer vs sarsparilla).  CBS' new series, "Bromance" features two bros, mancing, and in romantic relationships at the same time.  In fact, one has just gotten engaged and now they need to negotiate the new terms of their friendship.
