Kawan2 sy lg penting kot

Y i agree

they are not mutually exclusive, but as my profile states

I would rather make the friendships that seem to last a lifetime than have another 'relationship' that comes and goes when something 'better' or easier (or just newer/fresher) comes along,,,,

I think that a good solid friendship can be better than a relationship. But, if you have the right friendship, that special one, then you have a far better chance at a solid relationship.
That's why I say friends first and see where it goes.n
Have a great day everyone.

I agree 100%. I looking for friends from now on

kenapa. saya mau suka awak kawan

oooh what does that mean? Is it like...

Man: I love you
Woman: I don't feel the same about you... but we can still be friends.

... or the other way around of course.

Well if that is the case, IMO one must move on and not hang around being just friends.

my two cents

On balance, I'll vote no. Friendship is NOT better than "relationship."

I put relationship in quotes, because it requires specifics to make any specific decision. What I'm thinking of, is that any relationship worth talking about AS a relationship (and not just a "casual dating" excursion), includes friendship.

That said, friendships are a hell of a lot EASIER. Expectations are lower, usually. And there are a LOT fewer things that a FRIEND can do that would seriously upset you, than someone in a serious relationship with you.

For reference, you might review the song "Why Can't A Woman Be More Like A Man." Same things exactly apply when comparing "friends" and "relationship mates."

Only if your life as you've trained yourself and/or have been trained is averse to a "relationship."

For the most part saying "friendship is better than relationship" is akin, IMO, to a content morbidly obese person saying "fast food delivery is better than cooking."

Ultimately the "problem" is with the capability and perspective of the person comparing the two, not in what the two have to offer in comparison.

a committed relationship requires more work than a friend relationship, IMHO.

i have heard that a good friendship is always a good foundation for the best loving and lasting relationship

Very true. But from friends you will find that one person with whom you will want to give that extra work for the committed relationship. Just a thought.
Have a great day.

well the hope is of course, that a truly committed relationship will also involve an element of friendship but not sure if that is actually possible
many would say the sex thing gets in the way
but there is more to it than that
relationships come with different set of expectations than a friendship

I wouldnt want to be in a relationship with someone I didnt consider a friend, so Im not sure how to separate the two

Depends what you are looking for. I think someone wanting a romantic relationship would disagree that friendship is better, because you can be romantic and friends, but you cannot be platonic friends and romantic,in my opinion.

Which one can I borrow money from more easily?

may I ask if that is a FWB relationship ...

or just strictly friendships ...



I remember ...either I have had male friends or
male loving relationships...

some where just in the friend zone they say now a days ...

I've always had this notion that my one true love would be my best friend anyway. Maybe I think too much.

Naw ya don't think too much it is the way it should be... If your in a relationship and you don't feel as if they are your best friend as well then your not with the right one~~~
