Dating can often be a rather tedious affair. To begin with,
it's hard to find someone whom you actually click with, and then to pursue the
person and get into a relationship subsequently, if you're lucky enough that
is, is also like taking a leap of faith. It can go right and life will be good,
but god forbid if it goes wrong, then your life can become a living hell.
How about you save yourself that misery, and be in a relationship with
your best friend instead! Before you completely dismiss the idea, hear us out.
It's, hands down, the most awesome thing ever. Let these 14 reasons tell you
why.
1. There is no room for any surprises (or read: shock).
The secrets are all out
on the table. Her drunken escapades, all the a*s-holes she dated in the past,
her ideologies and her expectations.
2. You already know what the other person wants from a relationship.
You know she wants to
get married by 30 and hates cats. There is no fear of truth, no guessing games
and everything you want to know, you already know.
3. You understand each other's career priorities well.
She knows that you'll
move heaven and earth to start your own advertising agency, and you know she
wants her book published before she turns 35. And together you can open your
own bakery. #LifeisGood
4. There will always be something to talk about.
Chances are that you
probably would have talked about everything and anything under the sun, but
surprisingly still never run out of topics, ever. That's the beauty of being in
a relationship with your best friend.
5. You already know what you guys like doing together.
Because you've already
done everything together. Adventure sports, grocery shopping, pub-hopping, book
reading, or taking your pets out for a walk. And now you can focus on doing all
the other sexy stuff, too! It's like you can have your cake and eat it too.
6. You can totally skip the 'I have to impress her' drama.
You don't always need to
be at your prim-and-proper best in the initial stages of the relationship. No
pressure to impress. She will not judge you if your shoes are not polished.
She's a gone girl, my dear friend!
7. You don't have to worry about what your parents or relatives think about
your relationship.
Let's face it, they
already, probably, know about it or have suspected it from before.
8. You know each other's sex lives rather well.
Because the truth is
that she came to you for all the sex advice she needed before.
9. You've already seen each other at your worst.
You know that
relationship milestone where you're 'gross in front of them for the first
time.' Yes, you guys will never have to face that after coming together in a
relationship. Your puke post-drunk face, your awkward cry face or how you
really smell after a heavy workout session after a gym-she's well-versed with
all your gross and weird habits.
10. There is no room for any awkward post-fight conversations or silences.
Which means total
silence with them is as comfortable as having to strike a conversation after a
fight. You've reached that comfort zone in your relationship.
11.Your best friend already knows you inside out. You don't have to say out
loud when you need them the most.
She has and will always
be there for you, no matter what!
12. You don't have to impress her best friends or her annoying siblings.
They already like you,
tiger! :P
13. You don't have to worry about hitting the 'low phase' in your
relationship.
With your best friend,
the honeymoon period doesn't come with an expiry date, it always is fun with
her.
14. They say that your SO must also be your best friend, but in your case,
your best friend is your SO.
Aren't you the luckiest ?
