Dating Friends and Friending Dates

What if we treated our friends more like dates and our dates more like friends?

You may have noticed that I'm kind of obsessed with friendship lately - well here's another interesting idea connected with friendship that I have recently come across: to treat our friends more like people we are dating and the people we are dating more like friends.

What this means is that our friends deserve the loving attention, special quality time, and prioritization that we can give our dates, and that our dates deserve the allowance of space, understanding, and reduced pressure that we give our friends.

I like this idea!
