Marry a friend, or marry a stranger? Can you really tell who people are...? Do you believe in the saying that you should be friends before a relationship... or are you completely convinced a friendship isnt needed, no matter how big or small. Me and my current were lucky... we had a friendship- although it was short it was a wonderful experience... but from that we knew we wanted to be more.... How about you?

Well, I would think we'd need to be friends before the relationship. Marrying someone I barely know seems like a bad idea--we will be sharing many years together, and if I can't stand the person as a friend, I doubt I'd be able to stand the person as a spouse. At the very least I need to feel like I know the person well and not feel uncomfortable around them.

I think we should never marry with an stranger before marriage we should like one's liking and disliking and whether they are matching with our liking and dislikings or not.because we can not adjust with every one so we should atleast know that whether we can adjust with this person or not.

Me and my girlfriend strike a friendship first before we agree to have a relationship. One good thing about this is that you are already familiar with each other.

Me and my girlfriend were strangers first, but in the process we became very good friends. So for me I will not marry a stranger. You know, a complete stranger, someone you just met accross the street. It's a strike of luck if ever you marry a stranger and she ends up being the one. And sometimes, even if you're so close to a friend there are still some things hidden in his closet that you don't know. But for me I'll opt for a friend, a trusted friend that I knew for years. And I'll marry my girlfriend, even after 10 years from now.
