Romantic relationships borne from friendships can be exciting. You’re already close with this person, with countless conversations, memories, and inside jokes behind you. They know your quirks, and you know theirs. You may have even met each other’s family and other friends, which takes a lot of the stress out of announcing a new relationship.

 

Dating your best friend can have its perks, but it can also come with its fair share of troubles! No one can understand you better than your BFF; they probably know all your secrets. That can be a tricky thing when things turn sour. So, it is important to understand how such a shift can affect your friendship and relationship dynamics. This can have major repercussions on your friendship in the long run. On the other hand, the transition may be easy if you have chemistry and the ability to resolve things harmoniously. Keep reading to figure out what it is like to date your best friend so you can make an informed decision.

Don’t rush things

There is no need to rush into things. Even though you may have known each other for years as friends, being in a relationship is a whole new ball game. While you are both still the same people, you must learn what each other is like in a relationship. Even if you have seen how your best friend has treated other partners in relationships, it is totally different now you are involved.  You both need to build an emotional connection.

Be honest

The best thing about falling in love or being in a relationship with your best friend is that you can be open and honest with them about your feelings. This person knows the real you, so you don’t need to pretend to be someone else or hide your true self and emotions from them.

You can easily start the new chapter by being honest about your feelings with your partner. No matter how bad it is, you will always get a hug from the other end. This is one of the perks of dating your best friend. Unlike any other relationship, where both partners spend the honeymoon phase putting their best foot forward and being on their best behavior when starting a relationship with your best friend, you can just be yourself. They probably know more about you than anyone on this earth does.

Don’t get ahead of yourself

Be sure not to expect too much at the very beginning. If you set your expectations too high, you will be massively let down if things don’t live up to them. Entering a new relationship with anyone, regardless of if you have been friends for years, throws up all sorts of obstacles you both have to get through together. It will take both of you time to adjust to each other’s eccentricities and habits. You will see a different side of them and you have to be prepared to work on your relationship. You are not magically going to live happily ever after without any problems. Your relationship will require you to both give it your all and be ready to face many challenges along the way.
