Falling in love with a friend is the most beautiful thing: Gohar Rasheed
In a recent interview with ‘FUCHSIA Magazine’, well-known actor Gohar Rasheed said that he thinks falling in love with a best friend is the most wonderful feeling.
He explained that in his view, respect and friendship matter more in a relationship than the usual romantic stuff shown in movies.
“I’ll be honest. After a few years of being married or in a relationship, often – I’m not saying always – but usually, love fades away. This happens because of dealing with practical stuff, responsibilities, and personal issues of both people involved.”
He continued, “The two most crucial things in a relationship are respect and friendship. Mutual respect is vital, and having a friendship bond ensures that the relationship lasts a lifetime.”
“On the other side, if it’s a very traditional, movie-style love, it comes with a bunch of unrealistic expectations that are only good for the big screen. In real life, it’s not very practical and doesn’t last long,” explained the actor.
The star stuck to his idea that friendship is crucial in a relationship and added, “I need to be open and talk about anything with my partner, which is only possible if we’re friends. Usually, in typical boyfriend-girlfriend relationships, one person has to hide a lot of things.”
“So if you fall in love with your friend, nothing beats that. And when love, respect, and friendship all come together, life has to be amazing,” he concluded.
