Love is friendship plus sex and minus reason."

MORE THAN FRIENDS:
Artist/s: Zinc

***************************************************************

I think I just realized something
Oh how it changes everything
I know that I always can depend
On you to be there and to understand

And I suddenly see that you’re in my favourite memories
And I suddenly know that you’re always at my favourite places to go

So are we more than friends
But less than lovers
I can’t say if we’re one or the other
Is it a sin if we were to wonder how it would be
If only we could decide

I hope I don’t live to regret it
Stepping on ground we’ve held sacred
But something I think had to be said
How different my life would be had I not met you

And I suddenly see that you’re in my favourite memories
And I suddenly know that you’re always at my favourite places to go

So are we more than friends
But less than lovers
I can’t say if we’re one of the other
Is it a sin if we were to wonder how it would be
If only we could decide to give us a try

And every time I’m with someone else it’s you in them I hope to find

So are we more than friends
Less than lovers
I can’t say if we’re one or the other
Is it a sin if we were to wonder how it would be
If only we could decide to give us a try

More than friends
Less than lovers

How it would it be if we give this a try?

More than friends
Less than lovers

Cause we’re more than friends

RELATIONSHIPS COME AND GO, BUT FRIENDSHIPS SHOULD LAST FOREVER
***************************************************************

For all those people who have fallen in love with their best friend, and you are both considering moving on to a more romantic relationship, I give you a piece of important advice.

Yes yes, I know everyone wants to give advice, but Hell, just like all the others, mine is free so you can take it or leave it.

So here it is.

Just as you start your relationship, look your best-friend-now-significant-other in the eye and remind them that up until now, you have been best friends.

You have had and have shared the best and worst of times and that even if the relationship should end, that both of you will remember and treasure what you have shared together and whatever happens that you won't let your friendship end without a fight.

It always amazes me that so many people cannot remain friends simply because they decided to become romantically involved.

What a waste to lose a best friend simply because you couldn't get a relationship to work!!

You both should be mature enough to realise that you may not be 100% compatible with each other, but that surely doesn't mean you still can't be friends when or if your relationship fails.

Why is this so hard to do?

Why can't some friendships last forever?

Why is everyone so obsessed over falling in love when people who already love them surround them?

Is it really so wrong to build a relationship from an already strong friendship?

Why would anyone want to be in a relationship with someone who isn't his or her friend in the first place?

Why must it either be love or friendship?

Why can’t a relationship be both?

Why does there have to be a cap on friendship?

I don’t think there should be.

I think I am right.

I don't understand how so many other people can be wrong.

When we are friends, just friends, we are free.

We can talk and be honest about who we are.

We can share ourselves with each other.

Unfortunately, perhaps, we then fall in love, we make the ultimate choice.

Friend or lover?

It’s fine to begin with and then we fall into that rut, and forget to be friends.

Is having a romantic liaison intimate if the people involved are no longer friends?

Or is it the feeling of intimacy obligation that makes you withdraw from the friendship?

Why do I so badly want it all to make sense?

Maybe because it doesn’t.

Maybe I'm the only one who thinks like this.

And maybe I think too much.

 

How You Life Your Life

You seem to be straight forward, but you keep a lot inside.  You are always tactful and diplomatic. You let people down gently.  You tend to have one best friend you hang with, as opposed to many acquaintances.  You tend to dream big, but you worry that your dreams aren't attainable.
