Friends turned to lovers. Sounds like an all too familiar plot in those romantic movies we love. Two very good friends; one boy, one girl (or whatever way you may want to put it). Both very attractive and in turn, find each other such; smart, great conversationalists together, are in total comfort with each other, are perfect companions, and both love each other (platonic)...basically all the ingredients of an ideal lifelong relationship. I myslef have many female friends who I think could actually make great life partners because of our friendly chemistry, companionship and comfort. Everyone else around you may say "Why don't the two of you just get together?", and everyone thinks you are perfect, hey, you even think so too sometimes. But there's always that one single ingredient missing in real life. You can't seem to identify it. You would be the perfect couple but it doesn't seem right. The answer: it isn't perfect. Why? Because you are missing one of the most important ingredients to start a romantic relationship: PASSION.
The thrill, the excitement, the passion. This is what makes your eyes meet anothers in a coffeeshop or bar. This is what makes you constantly think and want to be with someone else. This is what makes you see your perfect friend in another way, a romantic way (just incase anyone was confused). I'm not talking about sexual passion. You can always kiss, make out, and have sex with almost anyone if you are in a state of hormonal imbalance. But I'm talking about the passion that you should have after sex. The way in which you want to madly spend your time with and love that person. (this is getting so hard for me to explain) The way in which the other person lights up your world. That passion. If you have that passion, go for it. Friends into lovers is always the best relationship you could ever have. And don't give me that bullshit about wasting a good friendship, if ever it doesn't work out, you always have that friendship base that you can return too.
But I warn you, the line between friends and lovers is a thin one. And along the line lies a whole lot of confusion. So please, think it over. You already know in your mind that he/she is perfect for you. It's your hearts turn to decide now...
