How Friendships Strengthen Your Relationship
<p>Marriage and friendship don’t have to compete, they can coexist beautifully. 💫 When we get married, it’s easy to fall into the we of it all — merging lives, social circles, and identities. But true connection thrives when both partners honor their individuality. 🌿</p><p>Because here’s the truth: the healthiest relationships are made up of two whole people and not two halves trying to complete each other. Maintaining friendships outside your marriage isn’t a sign of disconnection; it’s a sign of emotional maturity and trust. </p><p>Healthy space doesn’t weaken love, it strengthens it. It keeps desire al...
