I have always lived by the belief that you are only as good as the company that you keep. I abide by that philosophy in almost every aspect of my life. To me friendship is paramount to survival. What could be more important than someone to love you for who you are? Some friends may come and go, but there is one type of friend that will be with you till death do you part.
I often wonder why we can't keep our lovers as friends. Is it because they are so close to us that they know how to hurt us the same way they can make us happy? I certainly would like to be friends with my girlfriend first...at least if all else would fail...I would still have friendship to cling on to her.
Right now I just feel good about the fact that I am friends with her even though she means more to me other than being friends.
Well said.
