Some couples were once friends, but they lost the sobriety of the union when they separated their feelings, wanted to love alone with the exaggeration of love and finally forgot that friendship was what sustained the whole relationship, they used the most sacred thing. They destroyed the covenant between souls and founded an abyss.
They didn’t know how to expand the reach of friendship, they forgot that it works as the first clause of any relationship, it’s the thermometer. The compass. Without this resource, love does not breathe, even if it is a strong and multiple feeling, love can only demonstrate its power when combined with the serenity of friendship.
- Because friendship is love dressed as a civilian.
- Recognition of the other without neglecting the simplest details.
- In friendship.
- Even jokes have value.
- He’s lovely.
Friendship is a legitimate love. Friendship in a romantic relationship is the sublime culminating achievement of a relentless quest, where it is possible to share the tranquility of a Sunday in the park and live the wind in the sheets, the harmony that arises from understanding the differences, the solidity that does not break without threat of wind.
The friend recognizes the other in the eye. It detects from afar trying to hide a pain by telling a joke. He knows that the time-engrossed gaze hides anguish. He understands that silence is not negligence or apathy. Sometimes it’s just fatigue.
The friend is a kind of substitute when you get lost in life, every sincere friendship teaches us the nuances of love.
The main thing is tolerance on difficult days, when the other is ingested to solve the outstanding problems that life imposes alone.
When he shuts up. When you don’t want to vent because you still don’t know how to name how you feel and need time to realign the orbits of your thoughts, because he doesn’t want the other person to suffer or worry about anything. Because you don’t want to waste on passing things.
Friendship is the most delicate love that exists, because tolerance is always done in turn with forgiveness so that there is no cowardly ending, no misunderstanding, so that there is no mistrust.
Friendship is pure love, which recognizes the scars of others on one’s own skin. Friendship in the relationship is a foundation that must be improved in the warmth of statements and strengthened in a gesture of care, when the other is distracted.
To be the love of your love, first be a friend.
