My Best Friend’s Wedding is one of many most memorable movies I have ever watched. It has somehow influenced my set of values, especially those related to love, respect and mutual understanding. Surely there must be many among us who may have experienced an awkward situation; the least by having a different feeling towards the person whom one thought to be the best friend.

In reality, an ideal loving relationship should be built with your own best friend. Although it is more common in our culture where friendship and love relationship are known to be different type human interactions/ engagements, would you agree if I propose that every relationship will be better managed between two individuals who are best friends?

Top three reasons for wanting to have your best friend as a partner:-

• They understand each other by tolerating to all faults and embracing to all uniqueness, respectively.
• They understand the concept of individual rights, and demand less of unnecessary commitments
• They involve in most arguments but rarely in quarrels – everything is openly shared to each other.

While normal partnership focuses on charming and getting attention of one-another, friends are more likely to focus on making achievements and finding happiness for both. An ideal love relationship for best friends is when both share the same passion and commitments to making the relationship a more meaningful. Failing so shall create ambiguity – one may accuse another of not knowing; when the actual fact is the other way around.

(You Don't Know Me, by Michael Buble)

You give your hand to me

And then you say hello

And I can hardly speak

My heart is beating so

And anyone can tell

You think you know me well, But you don't know me

No you don't know the one

Who dreams of you at night

And longs to kiss your lips

Longs to hold you tight

Oh I am just a friend

That's all I've ever been

Cause you don't know me

I never knew the art of making love

No my heart aches with love for you

Afraid and shy I let my chance go by

The chance that you might love me too

You give your hand to me

And then you say goodbye

I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy

Oh you will never know

The one who loves you so

Well you don't know me

You give your hand to me

And then you say goodbye

I watch you walk away beside the lucky guy

Oh you will never know

The one who loves you so

Cause you don't know me

Oh no you don't know me

OOhh...you don't know me
