I thought of this when reading a post in the Self promotion folder. And "cracking wise", as I often do, I was tempted to ask about buddy tragedies there. but I controlled myself and decided not to hijack that post.

The only "Buddy Tragedy" I can think of is "Of Mice and Men", but surely there are more! Got any ideas what might qualify?

I'm thinking to qualify, it has to be two people not romantically involved, but who have an ongoing commitment to each other. "Thelma and Louise"? Was that a book?

I guess you could have a mixed gender relationship, but would we even perceive it as something other than a potential romance? People are pretty traditional in things like that no matter what they SAY about it!
