Love...the closest relation, but Friends?

So ever gave it a thought?

If you're hurt by a friend and you go tell your love about it...most likely he/she wouldn't like the importance you're giving to your friends and they'd say...well I'm here what else can you ask for?

It's like..your love wants him/herself to be the only one in your thoughts because they're possessive about you.

If you're missing a friend of yours and you say it in front of your love, he/she would again think their being in your life isn't enough for you!

But why is that? Why can't you make your love your BEST friend. Most of us claim that yes, our love is indeed our best friend, but how true is that? And if it isn't true, then why? What's lacking?

Ask yourself this question too...can you be a best friend to your love? Can you tolerate it when he/she talks about another friend of theirs? What is it that becomes a barrier in such a special relationship....no one else is closer to us that that one person, yet....we tend to hesitate about many thing when we have to tell them. Why?

Is it the lack of trust? But you know your love trusts you blindly, yet he/she can't bare it when you talk about your friends...why?

Is it insecurity?

Why do we always have to think before talking to that specaial someone in our life? Our relationship with that person is that of two hearts....and that's what makes it the most strongest, yet the most delicate one. But if you're so close to that person...and your hearts are linked, then why should there be any fear of the relationship breaking/suffering upon the mere mention of another friend of yours?

Very nice topic Fariha 👏 👏

I was thinking the same...that love is the ultimate thing in our lives...its the most important person to us....but still we just not open to him as we are with our friends....app jitni bhi koshish karlou there are somethings u just cnt tell ur loved ones...shyad its a sensitive relation and we have to think b4 speaking...wether we have trust on our friends...its a strong relation....and we can say them anything without thinking....but datz again contradicting maself dat Love the most trustworthy relation in ma life is still not close to me.... 😕
But i think friendship and love are 2 different things which shud be kept differently...apki best friend apka love hosakta hai but love best friend nahin.... 😳

Wonderful thread, Fariha! 😃

So ever gave it a thought? Jee, too many times! :)

Whenever in life, people asked me if my love was my bestfriend but I always answered them that I never considered my love, my best friend. It's not that I did not use to share things with him and all but my Best friend has his own importance in my life which my love can't overtake. There are certain things in life which you can't share with your love but easily with your friend. In the same way, there are things you share with your love but not with your best friend. Because both have their 'own' special place in ur life.

Ask yourself this question too...can you be a best friend to your love? I can be. I can be. It's not that we can't be each other's best friend. But I never felt any bad that he does not consider me his best friend. His consideres me his friend and love but never even I question why I am not his best friend nor does he. Still, people consider our couple the best one among all other couples. Because we have so much understanding between us and thats the thing that matters.

It's not necessary to be that person's best friend. Being his love and a 'friend' is enough too. I guess. :)

Can you tolerate it when he/she talks about another friend of theirs? Before I got proposed by him, he had a best friend [Female] and so when I got proposed by him, my friends used to tease me by his female friend's name😛. But I never cared, honestly! He had SO MANY female friends actually. People kept on teasing me until one day I became friends with all those girls who were bonkers over him and all those who were really good friends of his. And <-- it was these people who took the first step and told my guy that they want to be friends with me. Aur phr kya hona tha. 😆 Mey bhabhi aur woh un sab ka Bhai! 😛

What is it that becomes a barrier in such a special relationship....no one else is closer to us that that one person, yet....we tend to hesitate about many thing when we have to tell them. Why?

It's something natural.. I think. As I wrote above also that there are certain things in this world you can't share with your love. You hesitate to share those things.. Because as Adi said, we have to think before we speak to the person we love yet friendship is a relation jahan aap bolne se pehle itna sochte nahi ho.

Is it the lack of trust? No, its not lack of trust. Reason mentioned below -->

But you know your love trusts you blindly, yet he/she can't bare it when you talk about your friends...why?

Is it insecurity? If there's something you are hesitating to share with your love but you share tht easily with your friend so the reason most of the time is that that thing is not really concerned with ur friend but with your love and u noe your best friend would listen to it patiently and then give you the best advice he has.

Similarly, when there's something about ur friend and u are hesitating to tell that to ur friend.. U share that with your guy. But like u said.. They think we are giving them less importance this way. But still I know I have developed such a relation with my loved one that he would be caring enough to listen to my problem or misunderstanding whatever going on with my friends.

Why do we always have to think before talking to that special someone in our life? Our relationship with that person is that of two hearts....and that's what makes it the most strongest, yet the most delicate one. But if you're so close to that person...and your hearts are linked, then why should there be any fear of the relationship breaking/suffering upon the mere mention of another friend of yours? In sab ka answer upper hai! :P already I have written an essay.. I just realized!

U stole my topic..

I was planning to discuss it.. Glad u did. Great minds think alike 😆 😉 😳

Well,
I agree. You can not be best friends with your beloved and there are reasons for it. The person you care is special. Yes, you trust her but you cannot afford hurting her so before talking to her you have to think a zillion times. There are certain things you will say to your friend but not yourlover because your scared as it might hurt her feelings.
And you have friends bcz u disucuss ur GF's with them 😆 😆 You want to do something abt ur GF ofcourse you will not ask her but ur friend...

Hope i made my point clear.... eeeeh!!

im a bad writer 😆
