I don't understand it either. If I'm going to live with someone and see him day in and day out, he darn well better be my friend first!

Absolutely. I cannot imagine not being friends with my husband.

You better be friends, best friends. My wife is my best friend. I could not imagine being married to a woman that I did not have a friendship with. To me it is a recipe for disaster.

Hmmm, good question. He's my husband.

He's my friend too, but his friendship is defined much differently then those of my other friends (girlfriends).

That makes sense. None of my friendships are exactly the same. I just thought it was strange to not consider a spouse a friend at all.
