Most of the lovers were only friends before they were lovers. But is that really true to say that they were only friends. they just start as friends only to become lovers. Your opinion on this...

Of course it is true.And if you love each other,care for each other and trust each other,so ,that's just love whether it comes to friends at the beginning.

I think your question beautiful because friendship and love are two things close. But the most important is the love they have felling , the past is the past,friendship however stay forever.

The saying "Friendship is the first step towards Love" is a very well said saying. Going according to this saying, I do believe in friends becoming lovers. In fact the gap between love and friendship is very narrow. The relationship of LOVE is built around friendship. The two need to understand each other and this can be achieved well only when the two become very good friends of each other. Now, FRIENDSHIP can not flourish to its peak until it has a spice of love in it. The two can keep themselved well bonded with each other only they like, love each other!

i think so..it's because there are really good friends who become lovers in the end..i think its better to become good friends at first so that you will be able to know each other, to adjust to each other's attitude and to become more welcome to each other's life..i had a boyfriend, we became friends for 7mos after we had a relationship..but unfortunately, we broke up after an almost year of being together..and we had a child actually..

Hi men82in! I think friends can make the best lovers. It may be because they know you well and understand you. I also think if you are a lover you need to have the guts to admit it otherwise the relationship is not worth it.

For you to love someone, he/she must be first your friend-I mean, it is easier to suggest love to someone you have befriended already-in my village then growing up, I recall we could bump into any young girls and begin to bombard them with love words, in most cases we would be meeting them for the very first time-i knew these were teenage jokes-but slowly i noted after repeated approaches, they would simply turn out to be friends, and then later real lovers-to answer you directly, fiends are the easiest to transform into lovers!

It could happen. Why not. To be friends you communicate, you share common interests and you spend a lot of time together.After being around someone you could become more attracted to them.True love doesn't always happen at first sight.

It happened to me before, men82in, and I don't believe that this type of relationship usually works out for the best. There are, of course, exceptions to every rule, but I would not recommend turning a friendship into a love affair.

Yes, i do believe that it will be possible but what had happen to me is more likely difficult because i fall in love with my girl best friend and i wasnt able to tell her until she got married and till now shes mark on my heart ... i dont know what is the real feeling why i am afraid to tell her, there are lot of things to be cosidered ...

In some cases, they make better lovers and in some cases they don't. As a general rule I don't date my guy friends mostly because the chemistry isn't there. But I love them dearly. There is one friend I have though that I love, he really has my heart and soul and everything that goes along with it. Not sure where it will lead but it's fun trying to figure it out. If it doesn't lead anywhere else, I still have an amazing friend who has an even more amazing soul.
