    Mandy. Likely as in Amanda. Meaning one of her besties. Not a flex, just a statement of what type of friend.

    As hetero women we will often refer to friends who are girls as girlfriends. You could be right, but the 7 here is what I just described.

    English is weird with that. Other languages have a separate word for friend and for partner

    Not German. But it's usually differentiated by the use of possessive or no possessive.

    Mein Freundin = Partner

    Eine Freundin = Friend

    English is usually the same though.

    My girlfriend = Partner

    One of my girlfriends / a girlfriend = Friend
