The September contest #1 sduttaskitchen| Can a best friend become a good life partner?
Assalam o alaikum.
Hello my steemit friends i hope you are doing well and enjoying life. Today i am going to write my entry for The September Contest #1 sduttaskitchen | Can a best friend become a good life partner? This is a very interesting topic because it is related to love friendship and relationships which are important parts of our life.
Do you think a best friend can become a good life partner? Your viewpoint!
In my opinion yes a best friend can become a very good life partner. A best friend already knows our likes dislikes strengths and weaknesses. They are the person with whom we can laugh cry and share our secrets. If two best friends choose to marry or become life partners then they already have a strong base of understanding and trust. A successful marriage is not only about love; it is also about respect care and honesty and these things already exist in friendship. When you marry your best friend you don’t need to pretend or hide anything because they already know the real you. Life becomes more beautiful when your partner is also your friend. You can talk about anything without fear of judgment. For me i think friendship is a strong foundation for a happy life partnership.
Do you believe Friendship and becoming life partners are distinct? How?
Yes i believe friendship and becoming life partners are a little distinct. Friendship is a bond between two people where they share emotions fun moments and support. It is mostly without responsibilities. But when we talk about life partners there are responsibilities duties and commitments involved. For example two friends can meet talk and then go home to their own families. But when they become life partners they live together share financial responsibilities take care of the household raise children and support each other in every situation. Marriage brings many practical aspects into life which are not a part of normal friendship. So friendship is more free and light but being life partners needs patience compromise and sometimes sacrifice. That is why i believe friendship and becoming life partners are related but also different in many ways.
Share some pros and cons if one accepts a friend as a life partner!)
Like everything in life choosing a best friend as a life partner has both pros and cons.
Pros:
Strong understanding: Since you are already closed friends you understands each other’s natures and habits.
Trust and loyalty: Friendship builds trusts and this trusts is very helpful in marriage.
Comfortable communication: You can speak freely without hesitation because you have been open with each other for years.
Shared memories: Life becomes more colorful because you already have so many shared experiences and stories.
Less fear of unknowns: In arranged marriages sometimes you don’t know the other person well but in this case you already know them deeply.
Cons:
Loss of friendship bond: Sometimes if the marriage does not work well then even the friendship can be lost.
Over-familiarity: Since you already know each other so well sometimes there may be less excitement or curiosity.
Pressure of expectations: A best friend may have high expectations from you and if you fail it can hurt both the marriage and the friendship.
Difficulty in handling fights: In marriage fights and disagreements are normal but if your partner is also your friend it may feel more painful.
I would say that yes a best friend can become a good life partner if both are ready to take responsibilities and respect each other. Friendship makes the relationship stronger but marriage adds more duties and challenges. If both people are mature and willing to adjust then this can be the most beautiful relationship in the world.
In my viewpoint friendship and marriage are distinct but not completely separate. They are likes two sides of the sames coin. Friendship gives joy and relaxations while marriage brings responsibility and stabilitys. Togethers they make a balanced in life. So if one accepts a friend as a life partner there can be both pros and cons. But with love care and understanding the pros are always strongered than the cons. At the end of the day what really matters is respect honesty and commitment. If these are present then being married to your best friend is truly a blessing.
