relationship to friendship or friendship to relationship?

For me it's better if the friendship turns to a relationship cuz that way, you know someone deep enough for a relationship. I'd rather be friends with a girl first before engaging in a more serious relationship if i wanted one.

I think I'd rather choose friendship to relationship, because I think you will have a better relationship compared to a couple who didnt really know each other before they have a relationship. relationship to friendship for me is more painful, because though you are still friends, you might be very close but you will get hurt still when your ex will bring another girlfriend or boyfriend to you group of friends, i think it will feel really weird and hurtful. I think it would be very difficult for me to move on if I would still be friends with my ex.

Friendship to relationship. How can you have a relationship without friendship first? Relationship means like family. Its closer than a friend. So if you went from relationship to friendship it would be a bad thing. I don't know why girls always do thing backwards. You can't go from having a relationship to just being friends. That's an insult. "I don't love you anymore, but we can be friends." That does not work.

I am in a relationship with someone for more than four years and this person has been my friend since many years back, so we have turn the friendship into relationship and it has worked for us, however I know people where this has not been worked out and they lost their friendship too so I think communication is vital in these situations among the partners.
