The September contest #1 sduttaskitchen| Can a best friend become a good life partner?
Hello, friends welcome to my post in which I have discussed "Can a best friend become a good life partner?" as part of my participation in this 👉contest organized by @sduttaskitchen
Do you think a best friend can become a good life partner? Your viewpoint!
Yes, a best friend can become a good life partner. Many strong relationships between two best friends ended up becoming partners, and they're doing absolutely well to date.
The reason why I think so is that marriages are built on friendship and not hatred because understanding, trust, and shared values are what make every marriage last, which all these have already existed during the stage of best friends.
My best friend is someone who already knows my strengths, weaknesses, and quirks, which create comfort and stability in my relationship with my best friend. By the time we both agreed to move from friendship to partners, our relationship and love would become stronger.
Life partner is all about finances, commitments, emotional responsibilities, family planning, and so on, whereas friendship is the other way round, which comes without expectations and responsibilities. Once two best friends, male and female, have understood each other, they grow emotional responsibilities, which often lead to becoming life partners.
Do you believe Friendship and becoming life partners are distinct? How?
Yes, I believe friendship and becoming a life partner are distinct:
Friendship: This is about being more companionship, emotional support, fun, having one to talk with, and sharing interests with fewer responsibilities (obligations).
Life partnership: This is deeper as it involves deeper commitment, sacrifice, loyalty, shared goals, intimacy, and responsibility for the well-being of each other.
Friendship doesn't involve childbearing, whereas life partnership involves childbearing, and to this it is always stated that "all life partners should be friends, and it is not all friends that can transit into life partners".
Share some pros and cons if one accepts a friend as a life partner!
Pros if one accepts a friend as a life partner
Deep understanding: There will be a deep understanding since they already know their habits, flaws, and personality.
Comfort and Openness: As a friend who became a partner you can be your real self without faking it.
Trust and Loyalty: They enjoy trust and loyalty as it is well established.
Shared memories: The bond gets stronger and strengthened by experience and history.
Less conflict: They already know who they are.
Cons if one accepts a friend as a life partner
Loss of friendship if it doesn't work: if the friendship didn't end well I might lose a valued friend to another person.
Over familiarity: That excitement of discovering something new and different might not be there as they already know each other before marriage.
Risk of imbalance: One person may see it as friendship, another may see it as love, hurting each other's feelings.
