best friend;
1) Friendship
Friendship is the first foundation. It is where it all begins.
As friends you get to know each other better. It is advisable to build a
friendship before marrying someone. It helps you get to understand them better.
You get accustomed to their way of life; how they act and react to situations. You
recognize their strengths and their weaknesses. As friends you don’t try to
change the other forcefully or force your ideas on them. You respect their
views and opinions. You listen to them only to provide succor.
2) Trust
Trust
is confidence in or reliance on some person or quality. It is very essential
for growing healthy relationships. It is the foundation on which reliable
relationships are built. As time goes by, you get to understand the value of a
trustworthy friend. They are perfect with their imperfections. They don’t give
you a reason to distrust them. It is impossible to build a firm foundation without
trust. It is like a vehicle without fuel, you can stay inside all you want, but
it won’t go anywhere. To someone who knows the value of trust, they would tell
you trust is more valuable than love because you can’t love someone you don’t
trust. You only love those you trust.
3)
Loyalty
True loyalty stands the test of time. It is the allegiance,
support, faithfulness, devotion, duty to somebody or something. When you are
loyal to someone, you wouldn’t want to do anything to betray them. You feel a
sense of obligation towards them. You are always on their side through it all;
as a team. You never want to come against them. The loyalty you have for your partner shows how
much you love and respect them. It
shows you would always protect and defend their honor.
4)
Respect
Respect is earned. It is an attitude of admiration or high
regard towards someone. We respect those with high moral standards. A true
friend knows that respect is earned, so they give it first. They give the
respect they want to receive. They radiate all the qualities deserving respect;
true friendship, trust, loyalty etc. As friends, we learn to respect each other
boundaries and privacy. We don’t try to stick our nose in places they don’t belong.
Understand that everyone is entitled to some personal space to themselves; including
us. Give the respect you want to receive. Spend the rest of your life with
someone worthy of your respect.
5) Contentment
Friendships help us discover who our real friends are. It
helps us recognize that special one that’s meant for us. They bring nothing but
joy and happiness into our life. They give us a feeling of calm satisfaction. Free
from insecurities. Love is a journey not a destination. In the long run, when
physical beauty fades away, contentment with your partner is what will keep the
both of you always happy. The secret to happiness is contentment. A true friend
will never try to change you. They are content with the way you are. They are
the perfect one you would want to spend the rest of your life with.
