Dating a Romantic Partner

When we're single, our friendships are our primary relationship. But when we begin dating people, especially more seriously, you make a trade off. It's just how life goes as we get older and begin having more serious relationships. I have friends who are absolutely amazing at balancing their romantic partners and their friendships but with that, sometimes that closeness is also lost. We all know what it's like to lose a friend to a partner and it probably won't be the last time.
