If you can’t be my friend first, you’ll never be my lover 🖤

It's really a super healthy situation when friends, true friends, fall for one another. Given that other things important to them are somewhat in alignment and that they can give a well as take, be forgiving of one another and respectful of one another, then it's a marvelous combination.

Yeah, a couple of times. I can't help but find great things in so many people, as well as bad things, of course. Since I consider myself an optimist and choose to focus on the good, I think I fall for female friends a bit more easily than the average Joe.

She struts into the room
Well I don't know her
But with a magnifying glance
I just sorta look her over 👀

And I said
Baby, if you want to, be my lover
You better take me home
Cause it's a long long way to paradise
And I'm still on my own. 😑

I had a friend of many years and started a relationship with him. It was a mistake. Some are better off as friends. Hadnt seen him in a few years so i didnt realize he had become an alcoholic. Ugly 4 months but we remained friends until his passing

Very healthy attitude indeed 👍. Oh yes I’ve fallen for a few over the years and also remained friends ☺️

Hard to differentiate between the 2 for me sometimes. If your my lover your my friend. But if your my friend your not necessarily my lover.

My wife started as siblings' friend and then also my friend. Ten years later, we fell for each other (Yellowstone helped) and married.

I'm very likely demi-sexual, so I'm similar to you on this.

Yes I have, and sadly the relationship was never the same again.

I believe so 🤔

I have indeed.

Yeah 😕

Say that to a woman and she calls you gay.😂
