Is Friendship a better starting point before romance? (66)
I think friendship is a great starting point for a relationship to progress.

IMO, the basis of any romance is a strong friendship

I've dated non-friends. Just not fun when they throw you for a loop. Without understanding who they are personally you could head for an 'issue' once they start to become real and not that guy you met at a gathering.

it's why I asked the question I did I guess. LOL

I just find it easier to trust a friend more so than someone that I've met on a whim.

True that.
With a friend, you know their limits so to speak. You are aware of their faults and already accept them
That and friend romance just sounds sweeter.

don't get me wrong, I enjoy getting to know someone, but if I'm interested in him, I wouldn't classify him as a friend. I would classify him as an interest. 
Maybe it's splitting hairs, but like I said, once they are labeled as friends, there is no other interest to be anything except friends then. Friends are wonderful to have, I just don't want them in my bed.

I suppose that it could be odd for some people. I mean, you hear it so often.
My guy buddy's usually pick up their next girl at the bar. Or so they tell me.
But.. the married guys usually tell me she was their best friend before they married her.
Hrm.

Yes its really hard for some folk to have relationship... where friends turn relationship also possible... which I think it have strong bond too..
Raven0: For most people starting a relationship is hard enough. But what's the better way to begin it?
Is being a friend first the way to garner attention then eventual love?

if your friendship is really good sometimes getting together and it not working out means the friendship is never quitq the same again but nothing ventured nothing gained

There has been times when I dated co-workers, and we became friends first, then found some fling in our friendship. Then there are times I asked my sister to hook me up with one of her friends who I just met at a birthday party... we just started dating without even really knowing each other. I kind of like the getting to know you first. And I know what you mean, once you become good friends, it's kind of weird getting romantic... unless of course you both had those tingly feelings ever since...

That's true too. Once you go beyond the joking around things do get weird.
What if the one party has romantic leanings toward the other (or romantic hopes anyway)
Would being their friend be a good way to get their interest or is it just a way to get yourself hurt?

i think so...i think people are too inclined to rush into something that may not have anything to do with "love"....but, then again, that can be fun too....Is being a friend first the way to garner attention then eventual love?
....sometimes
