Amber POV
If I have to choose between love and friendship, I've got to say it's complicated, because my love for them is completely different.
We often say, that we "Love" our best friend, but it's meant in an entirely different way than we would love a romantic partner.
Friend love is platonic love. It's a love that means you care for someone, they are important to you, and you are connected to them emotionally but you do not have romantic feelings for them.
Don't jump the gun and consider friendship better than a relationship because relationships tend to fall apart more. It comes down to what kind of a life you want to build with that specific person and the kind of commitment you want yourselves to have.
Y'all must be wondering why am I bringing up this topic. Be surprised, let me tell you why.
