Yes I agree. Right now, we consider each other as best of friends. We're not just husband and wife but also best friends. My husband is everything to me. Like a fathere, a brother, a friend who sometimes you argue with. But just like best friends, there are things that you can't avoid arguing about but what's important is there is forgiveness and reconciliation. By being bestfriend, you can tell anything to him good or bad. You know he will not leave you or forsake you no matter what. Also, you will enjoy more being with him if you're best of friends because of your interests.

Yes, that's very true, a marriage combines lots of aspects of a relationship and a close friendship is vital. You will spend years with your husband or wife (hopefully) and you wouldn't want to spend that time together unless you had a deep friendship.

yes indeed. my husband is my best friend. when we move to our own house 3 years ago, i had no one to talk to almost the whole day cause my child was a baby then. i would cry almost every night to him because i was too bored and lonely. we've promised each other forevermore so might as well be best friend forever to keep the love and respect to each other

My husband and I were best of friends before we became romantically involved and I believe that has formed the foundation for our relationship. We have known each other since the early nineties and we’ve been married for fourteen years. We have had our ups and downs just like anybody else but because of our deep friendship we know that, no matter how bad things can get sometimes neither one of us is going anywhere!

yes,of course,when you love someone you must accept and understand and love him/her for the whole being. you can start being friends and always remain friends,make hm/her your best friend since you are willing to give your whole life together with that person. yes,you have to be friends with her/him cause in the long run you have to live together for the rest of your life and it is nice to have someone that understands what you truly feel. you have to be open always cause it might ruin a relationship if you don't.it's part of having partner in life.you are considered as one.

when we were still boyfriends and girlfriends with my husband, for 7 years, his the only true friend that i have, i shared all my secrets, problems to him, he was there always when thing got tough for me, yes your hubby, husband could be your one and only true friend.... if you think his not your best friend,then maybe you dont really love him, coz you dont trust him...

Absolutely! Your fiance/husband should be your closest friend. That is what a true relationship is about. This is the person you will be sharing your life with. Comparing it to your girlfriends, you usually spend most of your time, and share most of your secrets, feelings, etc. with your BEST friend. How wonderful it is, and what a special relationship you will have if that is how you relate to your fiance/husband.

My husband is my best friend. Sometimes I wish he would talk about his feelings more. We tell each other everything.

my husband and I have been married for 10 years now but together for 15 years. I was only 16 when we met and he was only 18. I feel I can talk to my husband about anything. He is my best friend. It is good to always have other friends.

I met a guy when I was 18 - and after 3 months of being friends, the friendship got stronger - and we have been together ever since. It's sort of weird to say we "dated" for all these years . . . I think it was more than just dating. He has always been my best friend - even over my girl friends. And then we got married and have 2 kids . . . he's a great husband and father . . . and still my very best friend.

Wow congratulations! A couple should be bestfriends. The main engridient in the marriage relationship is the strong foundation of friendship. Those couples who claimed they fall inlove usually fall out of love in just few years of marriage. So it is good to build frindship first then love will simply bloom.

Thanks for the congrats and BR! Yah, I agree a couple should be best friends . . . afterall a couple will be living a life together for the rest of their lives (well, they are supposed to anyway) . . . so why not your significant other be your very best companion!! We actually were together for 15 years before we decided to tie the knot. It's not that I didn't know if he was ever going to pop the question . . . I think our feelings were mutual that we'd be together forever. We got "official" for the sake of the family. I definitely agree that a strong friendship is a good foundation for a good marriage - a better chance of it lasting anyway. Best of luck to you and your fiance!!

Yes, of course your husband can be your friend and I think it is essential in life for the relationship to work. I first got married when I was just 20 and my husband was 22. We were very compatible in bed, but once the new exciting part of the relationship slowed down, we found we didn't really like each other very much and had little in common! My current husband is definitely a great friend. We have now been together 13 years and are very happy. We like doing a lot of the same things like watching DVDs and going away on day trips. We are more often friends than lovers, which I think works much better than the other way round!

I feel that you have to have a great friendship first to build your physical relationship on. If you dont have things incommon to have fun with, whats the point in being together right? If you cant stand them then why marry them. Better to find out if you can hang with them before you hang all over them, if you get my drift...

It is so funny post for me coz it remind me when i was in college lol.I have a bestfriend for almost 4 years but during those year when we were first year college wwe are so close you know sharing experiences,admiration and so fort.Then finally when we were in our second year in college by the way we are classmate coz we have the same course. Then he start courting me,then i noticed he gets in my nerves there was a feeling that i do not want to see him coz i feel that he betray me or he used our friendship so that he can get closer to me and later on he can court me.He is so persistent and i am so mad at him for 3 years he courted me. Then finally when we graduated from college and he was courting me for 3 years i kinda said to myself you know what why not give my bestfriend a chance. Then we became bf and gf but our relationship did not last that long lol. We are not compatible to be in a serious relationship we just decided to be friends but after we broke up were not friends anymore we are for lol. I did not see him anymore.

ha look what you want in life a caring hubby or a freind with whome you can share everything. If you want both of them in a single person then you have to take the inisiative for that.
22 Jun 10
yes i think your husband can and should be your best friend. If you cannot be completely honest and open and talk to them about everything how could a marraige work? I know that when I decided to marry it will be to someone that i can talk to about anything and that will support me in everything I do as I will them.

When my husband and I first became friends back in 2005, I was instantly attracted, but we were both involved in relationships at the time. As time passed, our friendship grew and grew and eventually blossomed into a "bestie" friendship. We were inseparable. It had gotten to the point where we would simultaneously think the same thoughts or blurt out the same things (lol). I loved him so much then and I knew that eventually we would be together. After almost two years, we became an "item", not a shocker for anyone around us. They reply, "What took so long?" lol. He was then, is now and will forever be my best friend because he knows everything about me. Events that happened in the past, how I feel about things, EVERYTHING!! I thought eventually our marriage would become boring because there was nothing new to know or fascinating to find out just like in the beginning stages, I call the "get-to-know" stages. After a nearly two year separation over a stubborn misunderstanding, we are still best friends and are working on our marriage now.
