"Friendship can end in love,
but love in friendship, never!"
[NOTE: In this sentence, "end" means 'result in' or 'lead to', it does not mean 'finish'.
And "love in friendship" means 'love ending but friendship continuing'.]
What are your thoughts on this old saying?
I'm going to make it a little more difficult for you: you have to argue that it is mostly true or mostly not true! You are not allowed to sit on the fence and say "It depends!"
Well, mostly true. It's kind of hard to get out from the friend zone, but it's possible.
ReplyDeleteAnd when the relationship ends, they wouldn't just cut every connection even though it ends horribly. They would still continue as friends.
And when i type the second one i was listening to Are You Ready to be Heartbroken by Lloyd. hahaha.
absolutely true! it will be very awkward if you become a friend with your ex boyfriend / girlfriend, even if you think that you can be friend with him / her, right?
ReplyDeleteI think it is mostly true. Every love starts from friendship. from friendship we know each other and the love feeling start to grow.
ReplyDeleteIf the love gone, most people can't continue their friendship because they already had bad feeling each other.
yeah it could be awkward, just like lidya said. but I've seen some examples where exes going along so well as friends, even better than when they're still dating each other.
ReplyDeletea friend told me once that it is unnecessary to continue the fight after the break-up since it would not matter anymore
and how come this article get most comments??
it's mostly TRUE! :P
ReplyDeleteI think everyone try to be friend first before they become girl/boyfriend..so the word friendship can end in love is true.
But, if we love our friend, which is we already close to him/her, I think we will brake our friendship if one of us feel uncomfortable.
I'd say...yeh it depends.
ReplyDeleteBut couldn't deny it mostly true in reality, daily life
Relationship ends, one of them must be suffering the broken heart.
But they could still remain friends, DEPENDS on the individual, whether he/she could just 'let it flow' or not
By that i mean, 'People change and things go wrong, but always remember, life goes on', right?
So just enjoy the moment, when you're in love! And never regrets.
Talking of regrets... what about this one:
ReplyDeleteIT IS BETTER TO HAVE LOVED AND LOST THAN TO NEVER HAVE LOVED AT ALL
Agree or disagree?

ReplyDeleteagree
I think it's mostly true because sometimes people broke up in bad way. For example, their ex have cheated behind them. It's very hard to forgive this.
ReplyDeleteTRUE!
ReplyDeleteBreakups usually come as a package with tears and dramas. It would be hard to forgive and forget. I mean, if (once again, 'if') they could forgive each other and solve their problems, they would still be a couple, right? :)
However I wonder..
ReplyDeleteif a friendship of two people end in love, and one day their love end, while love can't end in friendship. Don't you think that that their friendship completely ends? :)
Sorry Adrian but I think I disagree with this part:
'love ending but friendship continuing'
friendships end in some cases :'(
@ Addini: "...their ex have cheated behind them."
ReplyDelete1. It needs to be either "has" or "had" because "ex" is 3rd person singular.
2. The expression you are looking for is EITHER "their ex has cheated on them", OR
3. "their ex has gone behind their back [and dated someone else]"
I wonder if anyone can find any Lloyd Cole lyrics that seem to be about "Friendship can end in love,
ReplyDeletebut love in friendship, never"?
well, it is a very silly thing. i don't feel like having a good reason to deal with "love". let it happen its way. who you fall for, how you feel. anyway, big problems are the most unforgettable things aren't they?
ReplyDeletei think it's true.
ReplyDeleteit's a common thing, when someone wants to start a relationship, he will befriend with his crush and they will become a lover and so on.
@ Irina: Some people say love is a silly thing. Others say that love makes you do silly things!
ReplyDeletehmm...i agree with that sentence.i know most people start their relationship from 'friend' or 'best friend' but when they break up they never change into friend or best friend again because one of them or maybe both get hurt .but as an unkwon said before,when something ends,another just started :)
ReplyDeletesilly isn't it? your answers, showing a bit of your love stories hahaha
ReplyDeleteHmm... It's mostly true. I do believe that love starts from friendship. Before starting a relationship, you must have a close relationship with your boy/girlfriend-to-be, not just an acquaintance. And yes, somehow after the romance ends, you will find it awkward to start a new friendship with your ex, but as the time goes by, I think both parties will feel much better :)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this is the most popular topic in this blog hahaha
Quoting what Adrian posted before:
ReplyDelete"Talking of regrets... what about this one:

Agree or disagree?"
Agree! "Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all" - Need You Now by Lady Antebellum. LOL XD
um... stuff like this happens a lot. The thing is, there's no such thing is coincidence.
ReplyDeleteI've to answer this with one quote "Dating friend never works out" - How I Met Your Mother
ReplyDeletesince I can't say 'it depends'..
ReplyDeleteI'd say it is mostly true! well friendship itself begin with love, love for friend. and it isn't closed the possibility of continuing to further love..
and Love ends in friendship.. ummm it's kind of awkward to meet your ex act usual like nothing happen between you guys before.
but MOSTLY doesn't mean always, sooo.. it is depends! :P
maybe everyone has felt the love and friendship..but i thing,if we don't feel for love maybe everything feel empty..and if we don't feel the friendship maybe feel empty..so,love and friendship always running well..
