and is a best friend everything your s/o is minus the intimate part?
Ok so you know how you tell your best friend damn near everything, if not everything.
Would you be mad if your s/o told their best friend something important and not you?
I do not thing your S/O should be your best friend and there is nothing wrong with that.
A S/O is a completely different kind of relationship, yes it has some of the characteristics of a best friendship but it is way more.
We give each other space when needed but he's my motherfucking nigga!
