Are you experiencing the angst of looking at your BFF as more of a could-be BF? Simran Ahuja helps you tread this tricky territory
Most Friends fanatics will agree that Monica and Chandler were the cutest pair on the show. They started off as friends and transitioned smoothly to being more than just friends. If only things worked out as smoothly in real life as in reel! Like Nupur Mehta, a 19-year-old student says, “Once the initial spark fades, reality sinks in and you figure that maybe, just maybe, you were better off being friends. But by then you’re in too deep and things get complicated.”
Thinking about dating your friend can be quite like rolling a dice on a gamble. You either end up with something great, or decide to never go down that road again, and in the worst case ever, lose what you had as friends. Romance novelist Nikita Singh is clear about which side of the fence she belongs to. “I could play it safe, but that would mean living with a ‘what if’. I’m all for taking risks in love, if I’m sure that it is love that I feel,” she says. It all boils down to whether you’re willing to take that chance. We help you decide.
