这年头只有基友才是真爱
[zhè nián tóu zhĭ yŏu jī yŏu cái shì zhēn ài]
The phrase translates to 'These days only close male friends are true love'. Often used in jest, expressing the idea that genuine platonic friendships offer more stable support than romantic relationships. Here 'basically male buddies/friends' refer loosely but not precisely to LGBT+ identities or relationships.
