The Best Relationships are Built Through Friendship

Friends first is the golden rule. Strong relationships are built through friendships. Getting to know one another. Finding out the flaws, strengths, and weaknesses. Knowing how to make one another life and knowing when to stop being silly. Friends first always. Some jump straight to being lovers first and that’s how a lot of relationships go soar. One person is going this way and the another is going in another direction. Not on the same page. Some have no clue how to be a friend. It is better to get to know one another. Be serious but fun at the same time. Relationships become disconnected because there was little building.

Just because couples have been together for a long period of time. That doesn’t mean that they’re familiar with one another. Some couples don’t know one another at all. Just going through the motions while one or both have mentally left the relationship. Not being friends is a mistake. In order to keep a relationship or marriage from going stale. Both parties havr to be willing to compromise, willing listen to one another, willing to truly care. Not just use words but actions. Actions demonstrate just how much a person means to another. Anyone can use the words, “I love you,” but to truly mean those words. The words have to be put into action. The whole I have your back and you have mine has to exist. If not then the relationship is a dud.

Just because couple stay together for a long time. Doesn’t mean that the couple has a strong relationship. Some would rather have a partial relationship than no relationship at all. Not wanting to be alone even when there’s distance. Both parties have to agree to work on their friendship. Laughing, joking, and being supportive. If there’s little to no support. Support with endeavors, dreams, a vision then the relationship isn’t sturdy. Sometimes the other party is so far gone. The only thing holding things together is a piece of paper.

A lot of marriages are tied to a piece of paper. Another reason why relationships fade is because the other party doesn’t feel loved or appreciated. Too much distance and a whole lot of pretending. One of the most devastating things in any relationship is when one pretends to not care. Pretending to not care can drive a person away. Human beings are emotional and need to know that they’re cared, appreciated, and loved. If not then they’ll be on the search. Yes, we should love ourselves, but we also want to be loved by another. It’s very important to have a connection. Not just a physical connection but a mental connection. To be emotionally connected is a great way to build a strong relationship.

    • I don't think we need to worry so much on Relationships The very concept is totally fading away. Give me money, I will give you want you to want" is the only concept existing nowadays. To think about relationships and how to maintain them is of no use in these days of technological development where nobody will have time to care for each other. If you get a leisure, spend some time for them that too if the other agrees readily. Otherwise, each will have different timings and different routes which may sometimes meet some point provided they are not parallel routes....which never meet at any time.

      In most of the cases, the Relationships are distant lines only. It is only because of lack of time and busy work. It does not mean they lack Relationship, love, and affection. But, for the paucity of time only. Still, they have not taken the route of Parallel lines.

      The concept of Parallel relationship will be coming shortly and it is not far off. For this, there is no need to talk about anything like love and affection. "Because we are tied up with each other . we are supposed to live together for the sake of society.". This mentality is developing in the society very much and it is gaining ground. Once it reaches to a considerable number then everything will be accepted and there will not be anything wrong living in a room but leading separate lives but respecting each other.

    • It is wonderful when wonderful friendship turns in romantically relationship and eventually after time in marriage. It has value at most to be stable because friends already know one another and they know to respect one another needs and way of doing things too. Lovers sometimes argue around trivial things that make life complicated and unbearable but are not important for life and that leads to nothing interesting.

    • Some people believed that getting married would always start for being friends. It is ideal because of having a friendship. There is no reason to fall out of love. For some reason, an attraction not always starts there. It takes the time to realized this. That's the reason why we need to be sure before deciding to tie a knot with someone. Because there is no turning back.

    • I firmly believe that friendship can be a solid foundation of any relationship where you can get to know each other very well, know your flaws, your strength, and weakness. While courtship is a prelude for ever lasting relationship. They it is much better to have a broken engagement than to have a broken marriage. If you're looking for true love pray to God, and ask the Blessed Virgin Mary to guide you in your search of looking for a perfect partner to be with you for the rest of your life and you will see by the help of Our Blessed Mother in heaven you'll find the perfect one that was intended for you alone. I believe that marriage is a lifetime commitment. You should value your partner as a person of worth, accept everything about him, will stick to him no matter what, be loyal to him always. Most importantly, put God in the center of your relationship to make it work.

    • I believe in this reason, long lasting relationship are build with good friendship which rapport between them then molded in emotional, psychological and not just bind by a piece of paper. If only the couples can have this thing, their relationship would really last long.

    • Yes you say right but there is a great difference between friendship and relationship we must understand the difference so that our relationship and friendship could walk side by side in practical field.

      A person can have many type of relations with another person either in shape of love or business purposes or friendship. And at the same times all are can be different from each others also. A good relation based on foundation of good understating, consensus, compromising and caring for each other either it is a family, love or friendship matter. Your collective behavior will decide the tenure of your association.

      I find the main difference between relationship and friendship read these carefully:
      Key Differences

      Relationship is more wider term than friendship. Even friendship is emerged from relationship.
      Relationship can be in two form natural or deliberate while friendship is always in deliberate form and people choose friends by their sole intention.

      Good friendship is the sign of good relation as well but good relationship does not means that there exists friendship also.
      Relationship always has legal aspect for example in case of dispute between business parties, family disputes or inheritance problems you can seek the help of law and enforce the legal values also.

      But in case of friendship there is no legal value. You cannot legally challenge the mutual consideration in case of friendship.
      Level of trustworthiness, loyalty and trust in friendship is more than relationship.

      People are more open about emotions, feelings and expectations in friendship in comparison to relationship.

      Most of the relationship cases are based on win-lose situation while friendship always based on lose-win or win-win situation.

    • Being a couple in marriage is one thing and being friends is another different thing. Most people get into marriages with the hope that things will just run smoothly, but marriage is a lot of work. When you become friends with someone you really have to work towards it so that you can keep it going.
      A relationship is usually started as a result of true friendship, that is what keeps the relationship longer. Because you both know each other in and out, you know the strengths and weaknesses of that person, so getting along is not quite a problem. When they do you wrong then you know what to do, if they react in a bad way you will know how ready too. So relationships can be a very tricky affair but can be something that you can grow to live with in the long run.
