I will never understand why it is so frowned upon if you are super close to your significant other.
I have been with my boyfriend for almost a year now and, my gosh, the amount of backlash two people can get for being close is unbelievable.
You know that saying about marrying your best friend? Well, if you want my two cents, it’s one hundred percent true. You should be with someone who understands you and makes you laugh uncontrollably.
I love my friends like siblings. We laugh together, have inside jokes and, of course, fight like all friends do. But I always know they’ll have my back regardless.
However, I love my boyfriend in a whole different way. I can’t explain what it feels like to love someone like that. You have to feel it to understand it.
They somehow just “know you”, almost like that one person was made just for you. Loving someone the way I love him is something I cannot explain.
But, trust me, you know.
It might sound cliche and corny, but you really do know when you’ve met your other half.
How could you not be best friends with your other half?
It is kind of weird to me when I hear people say that relationships are work. If they are really the person for you, it won’t be work; it’ll be hard some days for sure, but not a chore.
It’s something you wake up to every day wanting, with every ounce of your being, to be a part of, even when you fight or have bad days. But if they are really for you, you’ll feel like they’re the best friend you have been searching for your whole life.
I’m best friends with my boyfriend, and not a day goes by that I am not grateful for that. He’s supportive, loving and knows everything about me, even the things I don’t realize about myself.
He makes me a better, happier person. I could care less if someone judges me for that. I enjoy having him around and laughing with him.
I am not going to be sorry for loving someone or wanting to be around them.
I have the right to call him my best friend, regardless of what others think. Don’t be ashamed of being happy with someone else, just because others cannot appreciate it.
Do what you want, with who you want, because at the end of the day, the only person you have to face is yourself.
Make sure that when you do, you like the way you are living your life.
