With maturity, yes.A very close friend of my husband considers me to be one of his best friends as well. He and I do spend quite a bit of time together – both while my husband travels and with all of us together. We were able to do this over time – and early on, it was always the “circle of friends” that gathered together. But as we became more like “family” – which for us, took several years, the deeper friendship developed. We are able to enjoy the friendship circle either all together, or one on one. |
