I dated a guy once who did not like me having a lot of guy friends so I stopped talking to a lot of them. I lost a lot of friends because of that and I will never do that again. Friends are definitely more important than a significant other. Yes I like to have both obviously, but I'll never choose one or the other again, if that's the case I'm kicking the guy to the curb lol. I have a small group of my own friends. And I love them all dearly. I have helped them through breakups and divorces and other hard times, and they have helped me too. And when I'm in a relationship it's nice to just get away and hang out with them as a breath of fresh air. Pisces Sun and Moon with a Venus in Aries IP: Logged |

Agree 10000 percent....I don't believe in relationships or "marriage" and here is why.. One doesn't need to "try" to become friends with someone...they just simply become friends. Even if they don't call each other it.. Same rule applies for relationships. A lot of people focus on labels and titles for their relationships, but all it does is create false expectations and obligations. You begin to lose the very person you admired and this is why so many marriages fall. But those who know who is going to be in their life has no need to ask for or expect anything, they simply stay because they were meant to be there..

This is not a "same sex" vs "opposite sex" question.
Agree. I think friendship is real and has to do with freedom. I would love to have a romance with someone that is my friend! I mean, not being a friend and suddenly start a romance, no. I mean, a romance that has a lot of friendship in it? Venus in Aquarius conjunct MC . 10th house. Opposite Mars. Sextile Jupiter in Sagittarius. Sun in 11th house. Saturn in 11th house. Moon opposite Uranus. Uranus square ascendant? (I don't know if that's important). Mercury in Aquarius. I fall in love (not romantically) with my friends. I don't want to kiss them or anything like that but I love them like the most people I know love the person they like (in love with them).

I think context is important. As far as us evolving as human beings, I would say both are equally important. It's not "either/or."One could argue that friendship is more important than romantic love in the sense that it can be, or often is, more lasting than romantic love. But it also depends on the nature of the relationship, whether it's largely sexual/emotional, or whether there's also intellectual and spiritual affinities as well. If it's the latter, combined with passion, then I'd say romantic love is without parallel. Also, I don't know offhand of works of art or music that have been inspired by friendship, whereas the art, music, and poetry that have been inspired by romantic love throughout history is well known.
