Or, good romance also develops a good friendship.

i don’t really understand how a romance is different from a friendship other than physical attraction playing a role too.

It’s always confused me when people make a huge distinction between friendship and romance. By my thinking, a romantic relationship is a type of friendship. Like squares and rectangles.
The idea that you could be in a committed relationship with someone who’s not your friend seems bizarre and hostile somehow.

It’s more like something folks don’t really see until it actually happens

My partner and I are consistently surprised when we realize that a friend, coworker, family member etc. actively dislikes their partner and/or doesn’t consider them a friend.
Bizzare and hostile is a fitting description, I couldn’t hack it in a relationship where I didn’t feel deep and genuine friendship for the other person. I feel like it’s foundational to establishing the type of trust that feels indispensable to me in a committed partnership.
