Brogirlfriend 

Female whose jokes you laugh at just because they’re dumb, who watches Netflix and smokes weed with you, who you communicate with using mostly buzzwords and no real sentences; ex: “BRO!”. While wildly inappropriate in behavior, dense quite often, and unable to have a serious conversation about relationships due to her quick whit and awkward joking style, you still want to kiss her face.

My brogirlfriend can be a real jerk, but some days she is quite the cool cucumber.

Boy-girlfriend

Definition (noun):

A term used to describe a boy who typically experiences attraction toward girls and would ordinarily refer to a partner as a girlfriend, but who develops a meaningful or affectionate connection with another boy. The term boy-girlfriend is used in place of boyfriend to reflect the individual’s usual language patterns or personal comfort with labels.
The connection can range from a close, non-romantic attachment between two heterosexual or heteroromantic boys to a romantic or homosexual relationship. The term does not assign a specific sexual orientation; rather, it identifies the nature of the relationship between the two individuals.

Definition (adjective):

Used to describe a relationship, dynamic, or role in which one boy occupies the position of a boy-girlfriend to another.
Example: “They have a boy-girlfriend relationship.”

“Joey and I aren’t using the word boyfriend, so I simply call him my boy-girlfriend when people ask about our relationship. Because that’s well, what who he is to me, a boy, who is my girlfriend.”
