We hope you never happen to be in such a situation… But no one is safe! You have known each other for a long time, you communicate very often, and all of a sudden there appears passion between the two of you. Should you be head over heels in love? Let’s talk about the pros and cons of a relationship with a longtime friend.

Pros of a Relationship with a Friend

You will not lose time to get to know each other. You already know and understand everything.

He will surely be a person of your type. It happens that you get acquainted with a man, you like him… but during the conversation it turns out that you seem to be from different planets. You have nothing to talk about, you have nothing in common. Of course, this will not happen with a friend.

You don’t have to pretend. With a friend, there will be no need to play a naughty or fatal woman. He knows what you really are.

You will know that you did everything for your happiness. You are not a wise little fish that will hide at the bottom in fear no matter what happens. Life has given you a chance to find happiness, and you have taken advantage of it. You have taken the risk.

Cons of a Relationship with a Friend

When parting, you lose both your friend and your boyfriend. Do not even hope to become good friends again if you fail as a couple. This never happens. So this will be a double blow.

Your relationship will be different. It was possible to tell him everything on earth because he was a friend. When he becomes a lover, some things will be embarrassing to discuss.

No surprise effect. The most exciting thing at the initial stage of a relationship is getting to know that person. What kind of coffee he likes, how much time he spends in the gym, what the name of his dog is and who his favorite football player is. There will be no such pleasant surprises with a friend.

He will not be surprised and admire seeing you in leather trousers for the first time. After all, he has already seen you in a variety of outfits, even in a Halloween costume.

You will start to quarrel faster than other couples. You’re used to saying everything to each other openly and are unlikely to become ceremonious in a relationship.

The first sex can be awkward. And even funny: you shared so many intimate details with each other. And now the two of you … However, this moment will quickly pass, giving way to new sensations.
