Sevgilim was hurt when i asked about Ahmed but she soon forgave me after I explained why. This culture is much more affectionate between friends. It shows another view of how, in the states, people do not know how to show love and caring. If a person from the states would show the same closeness as is shown here, it would largely mean there was a physical relationship or desire between them. I am still learning of differences that are un-harmful as i go.
