I've never seen my boys use it either, I have seen it on facebook, texting and so forth with girls that my sons know....AND I hope that they would never slam those girls (or another adult) for their choice of name for their friend.

I would think that one would understand a term before slamming it, but that might just be me. I guess being eager to agree came first?

having actually spent TIME with those "friends" who supposedly don't like you or me, I happen to know they all refer to each other as "besties" all. the. time. On line, on Facebook, in public, in front of others (not just me).

I have never really thought of language as belonging to a particular generation. I like to use the word or phrase that most clearly communicates my thoughts. If certain words belong to certain generations, that would leave quite a gap in effective communication.

I consider the term girlfriend to have romantic connotations. Among the people I socialize with, best friend would be a long-term, especially close friend, friend would be most other platonic relationships, and girlfriend would be a romantic relationship.

And I bet not a single one of those people is insulted, I know I certainly wouldn't be.
