Larry's Thoughts

If you've used the phrase "Oh, he/she's just my friend!" to describe a close acquaintance, you should listen up, for I have people that used to be like you — the girl who friend-zoned someone so hard, that all aspects of love should have gone out the window. Dating your best friend may seem intimidating, but it can also be the best decision of your life. There are some best friends who     both involved themselves with many different romantic relationships before giving their friendship a shot at something else, and they will feel like if they didn't consider dating their best friend , their life would be drastically different (and probably way sad).  The most attractive qualities in another human, I've learned, is the barrage of support they have given you throughout your life, as well as the years of history between the two of you.

Many people have argued that one of the best relationships in the world is dating your own best friend. He/she already knows everything about you and would be very fun to hang out with, just imagine how fun your relationship would be with him/her.

WHY YOU SHOULD PROCEED WITH DATING YOUR FRIEND’S EX Even though it’s risky, but you can proceed with caution, if you find any of the following statements to be true. i.                     YOU’VE GOTTEN YOUR FRIEND’S BLESSING: Call your friend or talk to him/her in person and explain your feelings in details. This will be a lot better than for your friend to find out from an external source (trust me it’s gonna be disastrous). The key is communication because an honest conversation can save a relationship (even if you’re just giving him/her a head’s up and not necessarily asking for permission).   A frank chat is far better than hiding it. Note that: This shouldn’t happen immediately after their breakup. Give it time. ii.                   IF YOUR FRIEND HAS MOVED ON: If the break up ...
