When it comes to modern dating, there is so much pressure that goes into it from the process of dating to getting engaged. Yet I feel like so often people just jump right into things without spending a lot of time on becoming friends before they get into a relationship. Now I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with this, but personally I want my future husband to be my best friend.
I want to be able to talk to him about anything, but I also want to be able to go on so many fun adventures with him. There is something so special about being able to have a guy that you can go to for everything and be able to talk about anything. Plus I personally feel like being friends with him first helps build an even stronger foundation between you as you go through life together.
When you get married you intend to be with that person for the rest of your life so why wouldn't you want that person to be your best friend. I mean yes over time you will get to grow in your friendship and relationship, but I just think that there is something so special about already being friends before you date. One huge benefit of this is you don't have to spend as much time getting to know each other and you can go experience more together because you've already established that friendship.
Plus if you start out as friends before you get into a relationship, just think about how many amazing memories and what a wonderful friendship you will have as you grow old together. I don't know about you, but I would love to be able to be that cute old couple that still makes jokes with each other while still giving each other flowers and just being so in love with each other.
I look at my parents relationship and their friendship is just as amazing as their romantic relationship and I admire that so much. In the end there are so many benefits to having your future husband as your best friend first and I think that is something that is so admirable. We all have our relationship goals and things that we want in a future husband or wife and some might be the same for a lot of people and some might be completely different for others. Yet no matter what happens the relationship between two people is something that is always unique to the two of them.
I want my future husband to be my best friend because I want to be able to have fun with him as well as love him. To be able to enjoy the little things like just going to the grocery store. Being able to go have fun with the little things is such a great quality of having a best friend and those are the things that I want in my relationship.
