Clear expectations and dreams
There is another good reason why dating your best friend is beneficial. You know almost everything about your best friend. You also know about each other’s plans, ambitions and dreams. You are ready to adjust your own plans or even do something together to achieve the same goals. It then becomes easy to support each other. You do not need to explain why and when you are going to leave your native town or enter university. Of course your best friend knows it all about your personal life. How soon you would like to create a family and whether you want to have children in the future are just some of the things you already know about your future partner.
Your parents, siblings and other relatives like each other
When you have a girlfriend or a boyfriend, you have to introduce them to your family members. You will also be introduced to your partner’s parents and relatives if your relationship is serious. If you are dating your best friend, then your families already know and like each other so you will avoid the stress that new people go through when they need to meet their partner’s folk.
