Which will last long ? Love or Friendship

Love cannot endure without friendship being a part of it. So, I would say that friendship will last longer. When you are with a spouse or partner for a long time, it's normal to fall in and out of love. As long as there is friendship (and trust) underneath, the relationship will be a lasting one. Lasting relationships do not happen on their own, however. A bit of work is involved. If you remember to treat your partner the way you yourself would want to be treated, it should be a happy union.

Hello Gany. No love and friendship will never really be equal. Friendship can last a lifetime, but not love. TATA.

My best friend and I have been friends for 45 years! I have other friends too, but some I have lost just because we have been separted, some are new. Things happen, but you work through them. My husband and I have been married for 33 years. We just had a couple in my church that celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary and last year I did 3 50th wedding anniversary cakes. Marriage takes 2 people working together everyday to make it work and not quitting when the going gets hard. Love, understanding, patience, joy, contentedness grow and change over the years whether in friendship or in marriage. Changes happen, you have to change together in friendship and love.

can you have a friendship at all without love? dont you have people yer close to, that you love? i think its common to love yer friends very deeply *nod*

Love and friendship go hand in hand in fact when it comes to a relationship I think it last much longer if two people develop a strong friendship first, because through having a long and strong friendship you can learn a lot more about someone through being there friend first, also through friendship you can develop a much stronger love bond, I think for relationships it helps to have a good strong friendship first then comes love. With that said I think love is the strongest bond but if you cant be friends and truly like the person your with you cant completely love them, but this only applies for the kind of love one finds in relationships not family meaning family love is eternal, but when it comes to developing love bonds with someone outside family, it can be a bit more complex so I say it depends on what kind of love your referring to if you mean the kind one shares with family then love is the strongest but if you mean the kind of love one devlops with a boyfriend or girlfriend then friendship is the glue that holds the love together and without it I dont think a relationship can last long with just love alone because for some people love is fleeting.

Actually love last long. Love can be of different ways. There is love for our parents, siblings, GF/BF, and friends. Remember friendship will never be friendship without love. Love is friendship so without love there will be no friendship. Hope I make sense. Happy mylotting!

hi Gany15k, Nice story, which movie is this. Let me know. I think Friendship can last long as it does not have any commitments. I think with time commitments become burden and one starts to feel suffocated. Not because he or she is unfaithful but due to one important law of nature which is called "CHANGE". As we say in Hindi, "PARIVARTAN JEEVAN KA NIYAM HAI", No matter how close you are, there comes a time when you need some space.....here is where the problem starts, but people who are not ready to give space don't know a secret, when space is give, the freedom lover bird will fly high for some time, but will soon miss his original nest and will come back. But we don't have so much patience and we break the relationships. Love in itself has many emotional problems, while friendships is a beautiful simple relationship, which is more strong and long lasting. Have nice day.

any kind of relationship there is love. it depends of what kind of friendship that 2 people established. there are friends that are just there because they need someone to talk with and there are friends that are there for you through thick and thin. i dont really believe in friendship that can last long.... but i believe in love as long as you found the right person for you.

Works for some people...

Well love is tricky because people think they are in love, when they really are not. You meet a girl, and are attracted to her. That's chemicals in the brain. Males are naturally attracted to females. Is that love though? No, not really. You can be attracted to any female. Love is a choice of the will. You determine I love person X, and I want to be with that one person... EVEN when they do something you do not like, for the rest of your life. Also, just because you determine to love someone, doesn't mean they love you. You see a girl, think you love her, start smothering her with attention... but what if she doesn't love you? Then you end up hurt, because you love someone who doesn't feel the same. People should be more careful, and cautious in choosing a mate. Not run into it without thinking. A couple recently near where I live, celebrated their 80th wedding anniversary. 80 years of marriage, and they are still in love. So it can be done. But not the way most people do it today. Running blindly into any relationship. Friendship is exactly the same way. You have to choose carefully. If you choose bad friend, then it won't last.

Hi,there.To tell the truth,I am not sure about it.But now I believe friendship will last longer than love.I don't have good reason.I just feel that we can get some lifelong friends but it's so difficult for us to get a lifelong lover.I have no faith in love as well and sometimes I even wonder if true love exists.

I think Love can last forever. Movies is not reality in life. Friendship will be on the mind but love will be on the heart. We treasure memories in our heart and the love that we feel is great.

Yeah,I believe on friendship most and I think it would last longer. When I am with my best friends,we can share something and we have a lot of thought to exchange.That would be interesting. It's much easier for us to tolerate our friends but not lover.And I also think that the lovers can be strangers at last if the relationship break between them.

LOVE and FRIENDSHIP are very mysterious things which you thought you already know but you still don't. I think that it comes to us and we just don't know yet. I'll share you some of the things I know.... You can't really compare one to the other coz' they are much different... LOVE: if you mean having a relationship, it really is different to friendship because you will open up another level with your partner that you don't share your friends. Your planning to build a future together. FRIENDSHIP: IS Different because this person is someone who would be there for you anytime you need help or the other one needs you. It depends on how you know each other to say it would last or not...

I think you cannot have one without the other. Love needs to be friends with the object of affection, friendship needs love not to be selfish. Sometimes there are crushes, but those are not love, just attraction. The genuine love or friendship for a person will have both parts involved.

Love last longer than friendship. Before you love the person you started to be friends. One's it is cared nourished and nurtured it will form into love. Through love the person knows how to understand whatever he has done to her when there is love. But for friends that showing bad moves it can be ouch! Than having love she can let him sorry if he will repent through real love.

I think friendship will last long.. because i only believe on friendship.. i don't believe on love.. in love a person will find only pain.. and nothing.. but friendship are always bigger than love.. so i think friendship will last long..

As far as I am concerned, I think the friendship will last long than the love ,which has not been regarded as the one's wife. As we all know that our friendship will last long forever. In our daily life, I think we can not be short of friends. There are a lot of place that we need our friends' help, Without them, I think our life will be so boring. For love , if you get married, I think the love will last forever ,too.

according to me love will last long.because if we make friendship based of love.love not only for girlfriend,but for friendship also.life without love is not will last long.have a nice day

I think frienship is much deeper as compared with love, but the thing with love is the more time you spend with it, the deeper it is too. But funny thing about love is even though you love the person friendship still exists.Both are connected, you love your friends, and your friends love you, which is longer or deeper might just be depending on you, on how you value each of those
