May friendship and love be the same?

There are many types of friendships as well as many types of love.  You can be best friends, a general acquaintance friend, etc.  Love-love for your pet, love for your parent, love for your friends, love for your car, and love for that special person that is totally different.  Friends can't be lovers, but lover's can be friends.  Sounds complicated and it is.

platonic love is where there is no sexual attraction, more like brother and sister.  Friendship on the other hand can have other feelings involved but its where you start a healthy relationship.  With female to male friendships its possibel to have both platonic love and romantic love not in the same friendship.

Good question. Love and friends comes when you least expect it, or when you are most busiest, and can't have the time to have it. You can't create your life, it creates you with circumstances you find yourself in. Enjoy life, and the rest will fall into place.

Of course. When you fall in love with someone, there is always a fear that your feelings won't be returned in the same way. Some people never work up the nerve to disclose their true feelings to the one they love. They just stay "friends" with this person because they don't want to be without them. So it's entirely possible someone you know may be in love with you, but too scared to say so.

Yes...you just have to make sure you two are on the same page or it will just make your "friendship" weird from then on.

Yes, but trust me don't take it beyond friendship it can end in a disaster...Friendships are forever and are not worth the chance of ruining it if you are already this close with the person, just enjoy been friends.

Not really. One party might be feeling guilty and trying not to hurt the other more, or just as likely, trying not to make an enemy unnecessarily.\nLovers can drift into becoming friends but fall out of love at the same time.

I think that every friend has the potential to be a best friend.  A best friend, in my opinion, knows the good and the bad about you and still loves you just the same.  A friend can be just an acquaintance that you shared a chance meeting with where you two discussed things that you have in common.  \nSometimes it takes awhile to get to know a person.  Best friends know you inside and out and you truly have a special bond.

We can love someone and not always like them...but to Like someone you Love...is vital-because you can't like someone you don't respect..if we didn't like a friend-they wouldn't be a friend for very long..it's that friendship that can keep things together in the tough times...

friendship becasue this is true love ...\nLove is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.\nYou have to be a friend before you can even hope to have a stable love relationship.

I've wondered the same many a time.. I think itz because we've heard so much about love and relationships that we tend to stretch friendship to a higher level. Just imagine, if you knew your best friend is engaged to be married or is already married, you would feel nothing but friendship towards this person. The fact that hez single and available makes things different. You tend to open up a lot to ur friend..After you become quite close, you become so comfortable with the person that you think, "how nice it would be to have such an understanding person in life?". There love starts to blossom.
