About This Quote
If you are in a relationship, you must accept that it is not only true that you cannot be one thing all the time. You will have to play different roles in different situations. You can be your best friend one minute, then your lover the next. This may seem like a problem for you, but think about it this way.
A relationship is not one thing at any given moment, but rather a series of relationships. If you do not play the role of lover in one moment, then you will play the role of friend in another moment. Who wants to spend time with someone who is only your friend?
