Formally, girl/boyfriend in German actually translates to "set/fixed/solid friend", but it's hardly ever used in normal day-to-day speech.

pedo nation, simple as that

How the fuck do you tell between friends and girl/boyfriends in everyday speech?

My German teacher said like many things in German it depends on context.

LITTLE

in Spanish too

You should know that.
Yeah, it depends largely on context and use of direct or indirect articles. Predictably there's a lot of potential for jokes to be made. For example if you refer to someone in the way of "he's my friend", instead of "he's a friend of mine" you can expect to get a lot of gay jokes thrown at you.

Wow raycis, why do you think I'm German?

Are you intimate with your food too?

Unironically yes.

that's actually really cute
