Do you think best friend can become a good life partner? Your viewpoint.

Yes I think the best friend can become a good life partner since friendship forms the best bond of a lasting relationship. A best friend already knows all your strengths, weaknesses, habits, and values so that it is easier and more real to communicate. Friendship relies on trust, loyalty and support and therefore these things naturally extend to marriage or partnership.

As friendship leads to love, it seems more natural and not imposed as the two partners are already familiar with each other and have mutual respect and comfort. But it is noteworthy that the pair too must fall in love and commit themselves to each other since friendship is not enough to keep a relationship alive. Due to friendship and love, I believe that marital life is one of the best opportunities to have a satisfying life.

Do you believe that friendship and becoming life partners are distinct? How?

Yes, I imagine friendship and becoming life partners are different, yet could also be similar. Friendship is primarily about companionship, trust and support among individuals who need not necessarily be committed to one another in life. Friends do enjoy sharing time and experiences, giving advice and spending time together but they may simply go in opposite directions in life. On the other hand, the friendship goes beyond being life partners.

It involves deeper commitments, duties, emotional connections, and more often the opportunities to build a future, such as marriage, family, or common interests. Love, loyalty and sacrifice in whatever form may not be enough to be described as ordinary friendship. Though friendship can become a partnership, the pressures and stresses of life partnership and emotion make it very specific when compared to friendship.

Share some pros and cons if one accepts a friend as life partner.

There are advantages and disadvantages of choosing a friend as a life partner. A big plus is the well built base of trust and understanding. Because the characters are already acquainted with the other person, including their personality, habits, and flaws, it brings less pretence and makes the relationship more natural. It is also easier to communicate, since friends that are best friends are also accustomed to open communication.

In addition, the level of comfort may help stabilize and prolong the bond. Nonetheless, not everything goes smoothly. This transition between friendship and romance can be awkward or fearful of losing the friendship when it all goes wrong. In other cases, the romantic flame may not be as intense and hence lack of balance. There is also the fact that as a partnership conflict can hurt the friendship as both parties are hurt.
