Would you consider your husband to be your best friend?

[Thankfulforthislillife]

Just that. I would consider my husband my best friend. We met through a common interest in a hobby and hit it off instantly and we’ve literally been inseparable since. Yes we have arguments but they’re few and far between. I see so many people on here complaining about their husbands and it makes me so angry that some men are so useless and don’t value their wife as a person and a friend. I was in a very abusive relationship in my younger years and honestly there’s not a day goes by where I don’t feel so thankful that my husband is my best friend (and that he’s also very easy on the eye but I’m biased lol!).

I have a best friend. My husband is family.

absolutely 100% my best friend and my most favourite person ever.

Same for me

Honestly, No.

But then I don't really have a 'best friend. I have exceptionally close set of friends, none of whom are directly connected. In fact they only know each other due to being my bridesmaids when we got married. It's hard to out into words without sounding like a knob, but each meets a different need I suppose. So I have 1 who I can be absolutely completely vulnerable around and I know won't judge. Another who has known me for 30+ years and just knows everything about me. Another I can turn to for parenting advice but probably wouldn't call her if I needed relationship advice iyswim.

Dh is the absolute love of my life. We are great friends. But I think there are things I don't want to talk to him about and the ladies are there for those things.

Dear god no!

Yes absolutely

He was the first person with whom
I felt I could totally be myself.

He makes me laugh. I tell him everything.

he can be both you know ❤️

No. I have a best friend I've had for 30 odd years. I've only been married 15 years and I don't believe in ditching your bf for another.

i don't tell my DH everything. He doesn't need to know every single thing I do. Nor do I expect him to tell me everything. We are still individual people.

Yes

Definitely! I’m still amazed by it. My first DP was always against me. We’re two peas in a pod.

No, and there’s other people out there that know me better than he does.

Yes, he is my person ❤️

Yes I did- until I realised he had deeply hurt me and suddenly wasn't. So now I still have H but have a separate best friend - I think it's healthier.

He’s one of them.

My oldest best friend I was at Primary school with.

And another best friend is basically my husband in female form.

Yes definitely

He was. He said the same about me. We had similar humour, we got each others jokes, we were empathetic when the other was struggling. We shared all the deep secrets we had and talked late into the night. I even showed him pics of menstrual clots I was worried about, and he discussed them with me like my best female friend would have done. There was no one else I'd rather spend an evening with.

Then he cheated. He's not my best friend any more.

He's now best friends with the woman he cheated on me with. I think he's done amazingly well finding 2 best friends in his lifetime.

He was one of my best mates before we even dated, we were housemates for a couple of years when we ended up living in a shared house as twenty somethings. He knows me the best. I do have some very close women friends as well.

In many ways absolutely, I have a few close women friends who I am best friends with in some ways but my husband is to another level.
If that makes any sense.

No. My best friends date back to school days and I’ve known them 45 years plus. We still see each other regularly. I’m on second marriage and whilst we are good friends, he is not my best friend.

I see what you mean and I'm always tempted to answer with a yes when I see this question... But the reality is that I already had a best friend before knowing him and he is in a category of his own: what we have is much like a friendship while at the same time so much more!

No. Friendship and spouse are different relationships for me. DH is definitely my best husband though! 😂

No, my female friends are better.

Yes, definitely.

Yes.
