Friends Over Lovers
--
They make you laugh even when you don’t feel like smiling.

When it comes to life, there are two categories of people that matter the most: friends and lovers. I’m that person who prefers a friend over a lover. Friends are the unsung heroes of our lives. In their company we feel free of worries, we live the moment and live the best life.
Friends are Low Maintenance
Friends are those plants that loves you even when you forget to water them for weeks. Their unconditional love is what made me choose friends over lovers.
Lovers are like exotic parrots who needs fancy food, constant attention and if you mess up once – bam! You’re gone. They will be squawking for hours until you go crazy. 😂
You can wear your ugliest pajamas with them without thinking that they’ll judge you. With lovers, there’s always a pressure to look good – and the pressure is real! 😂
Friends Won’t Judge Your Life Crisis
You can text your friend at 3 a.m. something like, “Is it possible to die from an expired slice of pizza?” and they’ll start googling symptoms for you. Lovers? haha! They’ll probably ask why aren’t you sleeping man? It’s too late. Are you crazy? 😂
Friends will join in on your random stupid thoughts, weird theories and even agree with you on things like “Mermaids do exist.” 🤣
Friends Know the Real You (The Weird, Unpolished, Unfiltered You)
Lovers fall for the polished version of you, planned movies dates, perfectly curated playlists. But friends? They fucking know you’re secretly jamming out to embarrassing songs at full volume, even when you claim to have “sophisticated music taste.” They see at your absolute worst and accept you the way you’re.
Who are We? No Confusion!
With friends, the answer is simple. You’re friends. There’s no weird limbo or ‘are we or aren’t we’ confusion. You just vibe, you hang out, and no one expects a candle-lit dinner to seal the deal. No stress, just laughs and easy-going vibes.
Friends Accept You Without Makeup… And Sometimes, Without Showering
Let’s be honest: friends accept you in any state, including when you’re in your pajamas at 3 p.m. and look like you crawled out of a cave. You can spend the whole day watching Netflix, eating chips, and they won’t bat an eye.
Lovers? Try showing up with unbrushed hair and a shirt that hasn’t seen the washing machine in days, and watch how quickly the romance fizzles out.
Friends have zero expectations. You’re their buddy whether you’re rocking designer outfits or looking like a hobbit.
Friends Will Roast You, Then Hug You
Your friends are your biggest fans and your biggest critics. They’ll roast you without mercy, reminding you of every awkward moment you thought you’d buried. But at the end of the day, they’re also the ones who’ll give you a big, bone-crushing hug and tell you they love you.
And let’s be real – lovers don’t really roast you the same way. Friends keep you humble; they don’t let your ego get too big because they’re right there with a brutal (but funny) reality check.
So, What’s the Verdict?
At the end of the day, lovers may come and go, but true friends are forever. They don’t ask for much, they make you laugh, and they put up with your quirks without expecting you to change. So next time you’re thinking about how important relationships are in life, remember: friends will stick around for the long haul, rain or shine.
