They have seen you at your worst

Your best friend would have seen you crying over guys, hung-over, complaining about those cramps and more. No doubt you would have seen him in various stages of worse for wear, so you don’t have to go through that awkward stage at the beginning of most relationships.

There aren’t any skeletons

Things that you would normally be worried about revealing are already out there so there will be no nasty surprises or judgement. What possible else is there to scare each other away with and have you heading for the hills.

No awkwardness

You don’t have to go through that uncomfortable getting-to-know-you stage that you usually have to endure when it comes to dating. You know about their past conquests, dating history, likes and dislikes, insecurities and aspirations. There is no anxious need to impress phase.

Compatibility

You are already the best of friends and the both of you have a lot in common. You know each other’s personalities inside and out, hobbies, insecurities and aspirations. You have a better understanding about whether this person is right for you and not clouded by emotions and hormones.

You know you can trust them

Trust is vital for any relationship, and you certainly know for sure that you can trust your best friend, especially as they have been keeping your deepest darkest secrets and gossip. It’s not like they can hit on your best friend either.

I kinda agree this. LOLS
