I have seen many friends falling in love with one another. Some of them have actually married and are quite happy in life. I also fell in love with a very close friend of mine. Unfortunately, it did not work out. Is it easy to fall in love with someone when they are close friends? Have you ever fallen in love with one of your friends?

Well that seems to be the trand nowadays but as you have experienced that doesn't work for everyone. I think it still depends on both of you. There should be mutual feeling for it to work.


myLot reputation of 92/100. sagnik42 (808)   ranked 732 out of 11,773 in love  4 weeks ago

Of course, unless the feeling is mutual, there is no point in getting into a relationship. In my case it was mutual but later we found out that we were just not compatible enough. Have you experienced something like this for a friend?


myLot reputation of 88/100. rsa101 (7316)   ranked 1,291 out of 11,773 in love  4 weeks ago

Yeah I guess friendship is not really a guarantee that a romantic relationship would be successful. It will still depend on how one can accept one another as friends or as romantic partner. Both seems similar but they are different from one another.


myLot reputation of 92/100. sagnik42 (808)   ranked 732 out of 11,773 in love  4 weeks ago

You are right. I have heard of a couple who were very close friends. They were such good friends that they felt awkward when they got intimate. Their feeling as friends were so strong that it was actually acting as a barrier. As a result their love life suffered and they broke up. But you did not answer my question. Have you ever fallen in love with a friend?


myLot reputation of 88/100. rsa101 (7316)   ranked 1,291 out of 11,773 in love  4 weeks ago

Well let's just say we almost have been very close to being intimate. We were former office mates and we just became close one but we never decided to jump into it. I think it was mutual decision. Now I am married to someone but she remained single I do not know what her reasons why she chose to be like that but we still communicate with each other but nothing beyond that happens.

Oh, looks like you just stayed good friends at the end of it all. Intimacy between friends is very common these days. It is nice to know that you are still communicating.

Well I think yes but not all the times. A love for friend is different with the love that we are talking about when it comes to building a serious relationship. Well I think many people fall in love with their friends because they become very familiar with each other. They know the strength and weakness of each other and they know how to comfort one another in times of trouble.

I am actually guilty of this because I too fell in love with a friend. My boyfriend and I are close friends before we became lovers. I think it is easier because if someone is your friend the constant togetherness and the spending time with each other makes both parties appreciate the good qualities of one another. I guess it is also because love really does work in mysterious ways and kind of has a habit of surprising you. wub

I guess in a way, it is easier to fall in love with a friend especially that you already know each other (or most of each other's) characteristics and personalities. Sometimes, you understand each other even in the absence of words. I guess most problems faced by friends-turned-lovers are STAYING IN LOVE. Sometimes, familiarity does breed contempt. In some ways, an amount of mystery between two people keeps the relationship going. It makes it challenging. You know, there's something new to discover everyday.

A good friend of mine started to court me but I only feel brotherly love for him. Unfortunately our communication had been really affected since then because I started to feel awkward towards him and started avoiding him. For me at least, I want friends to stay friends unless we both share romantic interests for each other at the beginning.

Yes i have seen this as well. They get into close friendship first then later move to long term relationship. I think understanding and respecting both sides comes into friendship and that's the way they have first step towards love life. But if you ask me i can say that you can't force yourself to fall in love it needs to come naturally. That's the part i have seen around.

Well it simply depends on the situation... in my case i was a little bit shocked when my officemate and friend courted me 8 years ago...at that time i was loveless and so depressed with life that unknowingly i said "yes" to him. When the relationship progressed i almost could not believe that this man whom i used to insult and threw tantrums at became a part of my life. The adjustment periods from being friends to lovers were not easy but i do believe that if God wants you to be together then it would really happen. After 5 years of being steady we got married and by now we have a beautiful 2 year old daughter. Afterall my husband is a responsible Christian guy, contrary to my impressions about him when we were still officemates. So what else can I say? Thank you, Lord!

Well, all of the girls that I fell and had a relationship are all my high school friends, even my present girlfriend is my close friend when I was in high school. I'm more comfortable falling in love with those whom I already know and who knows me already. I seldom put my self in a relationship who I have only met for a couple of months or days. I don't know why I'm like this. Maybe because I looked inside them, like their personality and attitude.

Hi Sagnik,

Most of the friends would have the more chances to have the
deep loves and also they are having the power to understand
each other very easily. This was happened to most of the friends
and also they are fell into the deep love finally it would ends with
happy married life. So as a friends we used to have the best time to
like and to understand more about our friends, and finally it would
becomes as a good deep love and then go for the marriage. So it is very
easier to fall in love with a friend, who is very close with us.

Have a nice day.

i think that it is very quite difficul because generally you are more confident with a friend that with your girlfriend. Perhaps it is only my case, but i think that if you tell your secret to a friend every day, it would be difficult to fall in love with her/him.
