Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

Everyone has that person (or people) in their life that they consider themselves the closest to and feel like they can share any dil ki baat with them. This is the person they turn to for advice and this is the person they lean on when times get tough. This is the person that understands their past and only wants the best for their future. This person also knows about all the other relationships in your life (the dynamics with your family and the ups and downs you have with other friends)… This person(s) is your best friend.

Once you get married - do you feel like your hubby/wife replaced this best friend??

Thoughts… opinions… ???

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

yes and no.

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

That's a very good question. I am not married hence i can't answer it but would love to read what married people have to say on this.

I am assuming things would change for sure. Maybe that best friend is not replaceable but certainly there will be things you will be comfortable sharing with your husband than your best friend or so i suppose.

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

I can't really answer this even though I am eligible but I would just say that there is a place for both in your life and should be. However just remember this friends come and go, even your best friend might loose touch with you over the years however inshallah and in most cases you spend the whole life with your husband and he is your male confidante, he should be even more than a best friend to you. Husband and friend two in one.

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

Yes! I am even comfortable talking to him about issues I couldn’t talk to my best friend about.

..and yes i consider myself to be very lucky :alhamd: :slight_smile:

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

I think it depends that what kind of opinions you are looking for . Men usually give you more realistic opinions .

I made my husband my best friend after we got married. He understands everything I say. The only other person I would tell/ask anything is my mom/sister.

my husband is my best friend, i tell him everything and he's there for me whenever im down or need to talk. before marriage, this role belonged to both my sisters, and it still does, but perhaps a bit less so.

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

Yeah, things i've told my boyfriend stay between me n him. Hes my best friend, My soul mate, and apart of me. We tell each other everything.
However i ALWAYS keep my friend (who is like my sister) up to date about everything.
I love them both! Wudnt know what i wud do without them!

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

My husband is my best friend and I KNOW that my best friend before marriage would have to step aside.

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

There is nothing like a best friend once you get married ..... *** Its like having a third wheel in the marriage ...***

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

ar u all pretneding this???k my husband is my best frnd???is that really possibel??kya husband best frnd ho sakta hai??i think ager aapka best frnd aap ka husband bun jaye tou bhi frndship ka element kum ho jata hai and sumthing else takes itz place....

am really surprised wen people here say my hubby is my best frnd...itz not possible..i dun believe this at all...

Yes husband takes best friend's place and I can easily discuss everything with him

That is the thing actually shaadi ke baad friends ke saath eik limitation aa jaati hia

yes limitation b aa jati hai and one more thing that frnd k saath aap her problem ,her baat chahay wo ghar ki ho,family ki ho ya kisi ki bhi ho easily discuss ker saktay ho but husband k saamnay aap ko kaafi cheezon ka parda rakhna perta hai ....for e.g.u cant tell him about the problems of ur own family(parents) etc...but frnd k saamnay u can talk about anything from A-Z...

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

i sure hope that happens

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

There is no such thing as a best friend any more.

Re: Best Friend vs. Wife/Hubby

"vs"? life is not a kabaddi match. All relationships have their own significance and their own role in one's life. But yeah once you are married, ideally your spouse should be your best friend. But your friends will always have their own significance and value.

Please believe this, my life actually depends on it. :begs:

:rolleyes:

well exceptions are always there :)..lucky u then..
