What would you do if you fell in love with your best friend?

Well I did fall in love with my best friend of 26 years, and we have been married for 10 years now. I don't understand this thing of, if you are friends don't date. Hello, friends are the one's to date. Love comes from feelings built from what the other person possesses. How one can fall in love with a stranger not knowing what in the world they possess baffles me. I know one fear is, but what if it doesn't work? Well what if it doesn't? A true friendship won't die because you tested the waters. Both be adults about it and work it out, at least if the friendship holds any real value anyway. If it doesn't work, maybe there wasn't that strong of a friendship to begin with.

Is it a bad thing?I don't think so.If you are still single,you can have a try,try to make him know your feeling,maybe he love you too.And you will be a couple of lovers,and you have know each other well,it may make a great role in your getting well with each other,isn't it?

Well, if that ever happens, then I wud be happy, very happy.. It wud be gr8 to find ur life partner who is ur lover as well as ur best frnd.. We won't be facing any kind of problems in understanding each other then.. I think it wud be very exciting if that happens...

Your discussion caught my attention. It is because I experienced falling in love with my best friend. It's really hard to fall for a guy who you considered as your only confidant. For me that was the hardest times of my life. He always comfort me when I have problems but with that issue of falling for him made me sick for hiding him my true feelings. So I decided to tell him the truth. But the sad thing is, it didn't worked out. It's not really possible for us to be lovers. We can be good friends but as lovers well it's impossible. I'm still glad after so many years passed we still remain as friends. Now he has his own family and I'm now getting married. So regarding you problem, there's nothing wrong if you'll tell him how you feel just be sure you have that strong bond that whatever happens it will not break. So there's nothing wrong to take the risk..goodluck!

The best thing in a friendship is to fall in a true love with your best friend. So if you have fallen in love, it is the best choice you should marry and have a very friendfull married life. Wish you the best.

Been there done that one! We are still friends to this day!! we both fell for each other at different times but never at the same time so we never got to date but hey we was ummmmmm fun buddies for a few years!! Now we call each other once a year and keep in touch.... I often wonder what would have happened if I would have ended up with him... he was so level headed and kept me from being so wild!! :D

All sorts of relationships including friendship is based on mutual needs and mutual understanding. If such a thing leads to love, based on the above said principle, nothing can stop.

Like some of your previous posts, I, too, also married my best friend. It was just sort of natural progression in the relationship. Timing, I suppose, would be important if you wanted to speak to him/her about it. But I think that if, indeed, it's your best friend, you really already know what's going on with the other person. At least, I know that's how it was for me. We never really spoke about it until we starting speaking about getting married. It just progressed that way.

I would be very happy if I fell in love with my best friend. I am a die-hard romantic at heart and many examples are there where best friends have become the best of couples. After all, best friends understand each other much better and can cope with the stress and strain of married life better. Even if they fight after marriage, its nothing new to them and they would know how to patch up later.

love holds no boundaries even with bestfriends and besides it is not taboo to fall in love with your bestfriend, it is but natural that you both do because you do things together and you made each other happy when you are together , you share the same thoughts and things and both of you are open to one another, isn't it this is how couples should be . as best friends?

Hmm I think Love can happen with anyone.Stays with the friendship sometimes doesn't happen and suddenly peoples changes relationship to different way which I do not like...I cannot fall in love with one of my best friend.Once I made somebody as my friend I always keep him as my friend and if he tries to become my lover I quit talking to him.

I left a comment once but just this last week I have found that my best friend of 4 years told me he loved me and wanted me!! I have loved him for these last 4 years! WE are now working on being together since we live 3 hours apart!! I love him so much and I am so glad we finally admitted our feelings to each other! Being friends first always makes it better for they know you inside and out!!! God knows I feel so lucky right now to have this wonderful man in my life!!! I love him so very very much!!! I hope we will have the greatest and happiest ending of all to be together forever!!! :D and yes i have perma grin all the time i am just so happy!!!!

I been to that situation and both of us fell in love with each other. But the thing is we're too contented on being with each other almost everyday and we forgot to compromise. Until one of us got a partner and funny it may sound but that's the time that both of us opened our feelings with each other. That after so many years of being best of friends we did'nt open up how we love each other but just showing it in action.Because that time we're still young to figure out that it's love. But if given another chance to redo it my Bestfriend and I would be the best of lovers...

This is a hard question to answer for me but honestly speaking it did happen to me. I had a best friend and have known him for 10 years. We were always together and looked like a happy, lovely and romantically in love couple. People think that we were a pair of lovely couple but the truth is, we never fall in love to each other. Sometimes, I asked myself whether it's true that he's only my friend or I did fall in love with him unintentionally or without us realizing it. He took care of me like his girlfriend. He always be there for me whenever I needed him. At the end of our relationship, he did give me a signal about his true feeling towards me and I was surprised to hear it. I did imagine if we became a couple and get married one day but it was just for fun. I didn't realize that he was thinking the same too and he was serious about it. But since he knows all my relationship before, he felt that I was afraid to have a more serious relationship and remained to be a close friend. We started to drift apart when we realized our true feelings and started to feel uncomfortable towards each other. At the end, we just go on our separate way!

Hi. Tough situatuion, and I think the only way out is telling your friend what you think of her. I always believe love is too complicated to be kept inside your own system, you should let it flow to your friends and to your love and when you love your best friend than I don't think that telling aboutit to anybody else is right.

Hello stdrst Me best friend did that. But he never work out with that, sometimes best fried is good to be a best friend not a couple. But for me as long as we can suit each other and he/she had the same feeling, you have to try it. If we make a love relationship, we can love him/or as a lover, a best friend and a family. *angel www.beautycosmetictips.com

There is nothing wrong in falling in love with your best friend. But its should be a love from both ends, not the single ended love. When love blooms to both of you, then there is nothing wrong in sharing your life with them. But if you alone love and your friend dont, then you should definitely reconsider your decision.

This one is so hard, my best friend and i have been friends for over 14 years, i gusess i really dont want to risk the friendship between us, the fact is he really loves me and it has been that way from the beginning, but i love him so much as my brother and not a intimate thing.

Falling in love with your best friend may be the best thing that will happen to you.. That's how I see it at least...And that is if the feeling is mutual...hahaha
