This is bog standard dumb stuff young people say. I've heard this same sentiment come out of idealistic kids for decades. How this is anything other than ignored is beyond me.

To those who feel saddened by this, always remember that you can be your own best friend. Treat yourself.
I'm living that life and we're not even married yet. 5 years since this June. Never been happier :)
My partner and I are on year 8? I think? Neither of us care about anniversaries or any of that stuff, so we lose track often.
We just fit. We rarely disagree, and when we disagree, we're civil about it. There's no yelling and screaming about who is right.
It's genuinely co-op mode, and we pair up to get stuff done regularly, but when no co-op is required, we just keep living our lives, together.
So I put a ring on it. Planning to sign the papers next year to make it official.

Can't wait for these comments to be depressing
They’re not wrong, but you’re not either. Nothing is perfect all the time and the OP statement really leaves a lot out. Been married for 20 years. Would do it all again. That’s what matters.
Grew up assuming this would never happen so I never tried, and now I prolly won't ever try
Enjoy it for me, friends. I'm just an NPC.
This post is going to make some people very sad and some people very happy and I guess I'm here for that. Life is alllll sorts of experiences, good and bad. Just gotta roll with it.
And some of us just, meh. Tried the co-op mode and found that the people I'm attracted to aren't good for me. Now I'm just looking forward to retiring before I'm 50, and surfing. That and having tons of dogs that I foster and train to be good, and then adopt out. I'm not a good dog parent because I can't see them as anything but needy toddlers. Therefore annoying. I can't foster cats because I couldn't adopt the cats out. The dogs are at least consistently needing the same repetition so that they become good dogs for some family out there.
I'd rather just not tbh but I don't want to leave a me shaped hole in people's lives
I get that
At first I imagined actually getting into the fetal position and rolling on the ground, but then I realized that's only my fetish... You were obviously talking about trains.
*"Listen, happy endings is fine if they turn out happy,” said Granny, glaring at the sky. “But you can't make 'em for other people. Like the only way you could make a happy marriage is by cuttin' their heads off as soon as they say 'I do', yes? You can't make happiness…” Granny Weatherwax stared at the distant city.
shut up grandma. people are allowed to get to know each other before they're married now. also they're allowed to get a divorce so they don't have to resort to slowly poisoning their spouse.
Do NOT talk to Granny Weatherwax like that.

Are you the same person you were 5 years ago? 10? 20? Do you think you'll be the same in the future? Will your partner also be? The correct answer is no. Marriage takes work to keep working as life takes you through its ups and downs and we evolve and grow as people. Best of luck to you all!
That about sums it up. 10/10 fucking love being married
Wife doesn't love me, least not the way I love her. Just had the talk, this post is downright brutal right now.

How do people be best friends?
i don't believe in best friends tbh, i think it's a childish concept. just have good friends, you don't need to rank them.
No, I need to rank them.
i don't understand the point of having "lower rank" friends. if someone's not as good a friend, why are they a friend at all? that's an acquaintance.
Eyyy look you did it!

Lol. Kek.
Right? Lmao even. I know too many people that have been ruined by cheaters to want to marry and I have a genetic disorder I refuse to pass along, so I won't be having kids. There goes 99% of the dating pool for me.
