It doesn't have a better chance at lasting...but if it lasts, it has a better chance of being a good relationship and enduring the test of time. Often times when you cross the line and go from being "friends" to boyfriend/girlfriend, it doesn't work. I've read that it usually doesn't work because the chemistry isn't good, otherwise you would've gotten together in the first place. Friends should stay friends, you may end up losing this person both as a boyfriend and as a friend. You've got to know what you are risking and decide from there.

Well ill be honest with you, it all really depends on the people involved. First of all, please rubbish any claims of ''if you only have been friends with him for so many months you dont know him or her wll enough'' - cos that sincerely is rubbish. If you spend every day with someone, and you see another once a week, it is still very possible that you know the latter better. it all depends on the intensity of the conversations. do you know the person's dreams, dislikes, wishes and hopes? would you get hurt if the person pointed out your faults? how is it vice versa? can you tell him or her everything? can you survive with not seeing or contacting them for a while (otherwise its infatuation)? would you feel ashamed or embarassed to introduce the person to certain others? if so, why?
I was going through a rought time with my b.f. (now ex) and i asked his best friend for advice. It turned out that because of the depths of our minds, i slowly ended up spilling my soul to him, and the same vice versa. i realised we had so much, perhaps too much in common. we got together, and are in the same classes, 8 hrs a day. this has brought a lot of controversy and trouble - but weve made it, and are stronger than perhaps even married couples. in fact i even have a crush on someone at the moment - but we're both mature enough to laugh about it. So yes, its very good when your best friend becomes your lover - i can even tell him, as if he's a third person, ''you know felt shy and embarassed telling you such and such..'' and i know i can trust him.
however! there is no set rule to love. i have heard of a couple who started off with a one night stand, then she got pregnant, they became best friends, she even confided in him, and now they are happily married :-)
its all up to you...

Yes I do, its important to get to know someone well enough to know if your compatible and that you really like each other. If there's a physical attraction between the two it will develop into a love relationship that has a better chance at lasting.

It's definitely a good start. A great relationship remains a great relationship if you like the person as a friend and enjoy their company besides being crazy about them. If you can't stand the person as a friend why would you be in a relationship with them. Hope it makes sense.

No such hard n fast or specific rules attached to love relationship or any other kuman relationships. However, it depends on the manner of sincereity you owe to the relationship, wherein no external forces of whatsoever nature is dampening its growth in proper perspective.

No.people who enter into love relationshipas friends tend to remainfriends only.Their relationship does'nt progress beyond that and lacks in intensity.Soon they start looking around for that "mising " factor.

Very likely. If you can be a friend AND a lover, it should last better. Many lovers do become enemies if they don't become friends

my husband and i started as just friends, we have been going strong for 3 years now!
one thing i have learned from other friends marriages is that marriage should never be based on sex, the sex will go away and you will be left with no feelings for eachother.
