One of my exes actually freaked out because we got along too well.

We were best friends who slept together, but when they realised this truth, it destabilized everything. Apparently it didn't count as a "real relationship" anymore :/. I never figured out what they were actually looking for.

They were conservative, but it worked well until that point. I think their minds simply function in ways beyond our understanding.

They should be your bestest friend? I mean, for some things you have other friends that are "best", maybe in areas your spouse isn't interested in. But overall... if you can't count on your spouse to be there like a best friend for anything, why marry them?

My wife is my dearest friend. But it is still a different relationship than a strictly plutonic friend.

What is even the point? Why bother?

Hi, daddy.
