It's totally true in the Anitaverse. I vaguely remember LKH actually saying outright that she prefers male company to women, but I can't remember if that actually made it into the books. There may have been a variation on it when she was describing Edward as Anita's BESTEST FRIEND.
Yeah. Edward's the beffie now.
Ronnie who?
The Merryverse is just...weird. Like, she's got at least one friend! Detective Lucy Tate! SHE'S GOT A LADY FRIEND! Except Lucy then spends a chapter being creepily invested in making sure that Merry's dudes live because she can't handle the idea of Merry having the SADS. And she's even like "me and the police will DIE because it's our duty to do so and you assholes had better live so Merry can be a big happy family!" Merry dismisses it as Lucy "taking it personally" that Merry was raped, though it's nice to see someone upset about that because A Shiver of Light largely treats the rape like an inconvenience.
