Did you know that 8 out of 10 people ponder upon dating their best friend at one point or another? If you’re considering “taking friendship to the next level,” you’re not alone! Dating someone who knows you inside out makes a lot of sense. Your best friend knows everything about you. You enjoy spending time together, and if the chemistry is there, why not? But, wait. What if your BFF doesn’t feel the same way? What if both of you turn out to be different people in the relationship than you were in a friendship? What if the romance fades?

In this complex and chaotic time, we need more than ever the particular skills and attributes women possess and can bring to the table.

To move successfully into the future, men need to be able to live in relationships that are whole, genuine, and open. They need to understand how to be their best, most vulnerable selves.

Concentrate on yourself, since most of the time, no one cares. You've just taken a significant stride forward in your life or accomplished an important goal, and you want to tell everyone you know about it. You're brimming with pride and happiness and want to share it with others. But have you ever paused to consider that small voice in your brain that questions if the beneficiaries of your wonderful news truly care? Sure, they're probably paying attention to what you're saying. They may even interrogate you. But, in the end, do they genuinely care about you and your life?

Tip number one: Put yourself in her shoes. You may have already heard of this; however, empathy is not an overrated thing at all. We are different, at least in some ways. So, if you’re not ready to see a situation from another perspective, how can you really understand what’s going on? There is truly no doubt that men and women see relationships from varying angles, but a desire for trustful behavior isn't reserved for one gender. Indeed, you’ll find that if you look at the situation from her perspective, there are similarities to what you’re thinking yourself.

Everyone wants to get along well with people and to meet life's situations successfully. We want others to like us, and we want to feel that we count for something. These results, which we so much desire, depend upon the personality that we have built and are still building. In fact, the early teens is an especially important building period.

The older we get, the less we find ourselves spending time in the company of good friends. Organic friendship becomes nearly impossible―after all, there are all sorts of obligations tugging at our attention. Or we find ourselves getting frustrated with shallow, draining conversations. Or, most painful of all, we feel like no one wants us―and who wants to be rejected? If you have found yourself desperately wanting connection but confused about why you are not experiencing it, you are not alone. And you don’t have to stay there.
