do you think your best friend can be your life partner?

I am very much on the verge of thinking what you are saying for many days now. That was especially when all was going good with me and my best friend. Our spending time with each other, changed into friendship. We got to know each other still better and not to mention that the friendship, sooner than later, transferred into a very very delicate love. I dreamt of having this same girl as my life-partner. What was wrong in that? Most boys and girls cling on to the same dreams. Those were the days, when the world really seemed beautiful. I wanted to find errors, I wanted to find faults, I wanted to find potholes in my partner, but I very miserably failed. Why I was finding blemish in my partner, I still don’t know it. Maybe I wanted to get sure that, the person too is a human and that she too is liable to make mistakes. But, each and every aspect of the lady seemed so pleasing to me that, I really got lost in her love. And I never knew when I was drowning in the ocean of her dreams. All seemed to go well on track. All was going according to script. Then I asked myself, what will be wrong in having the same girl as my life-partner too? I immediately found the idea so pleasing that, that idea ruled me for days together. It did not allow me to think of anything else other than dreaming, or daydreaming rather, that we both are happily married and that we both still love each other with the same intensity as we loved before our marriage. Nothing seemed distinct. The difference was the marriage only; otherwise the same intensity to meet each other, the excitement that we got upon spending some time with each other, etc. all was intact. But you know, this was a cruel dream, and it never ever came true. Spending your, anybody’s, I mean, life with your best friend is like a gamble. You know, when you spend much more time with anyone, any person, you start to get to know their potholes in their behavior. That’s why they say, familiarity breeds contempt. And before long everything was over. A cruel wave of air, dowsed the light playing merrily around. But finally to say, not all might be experiencing the same thing. some might even get luckier.

That is good if you have common personalities. The way i look at your query, you seem to be in good sailing with your relationship. Best friends turns to lovers in my opinion would provide a strong relationship and would eventually may lead into marriage.

Hi Shivam, Yes i am married to my bestfriend, my partner--now my husband! i am so lucky for having him as my husband. very supportive of my career, a responsible and loving husband and father to us!

Um, well if you already decided then I guess you got it, right?! So you don't need any help! LoL. If you two are in love then that's all that matters. You should love her and if she loves you then it will be good. Also communicate with her and don't leave her alone if you love her. Also have her communicate with you. If there is none of this then there is no relationship from my perspective. I have been through relationships like this.
