relationships don't have to change your friendships. I know several couples which I am completely happy to see endure because the people involved fit so well with each other it makes me happy to see them. One couple in particular, is of a girl who I became good friends with on my floor in first year. She's dating another guy whom I didn't know beforehand, but they meshed so well together her boyfriend has now become one of my good friends. It's at the point where they can come out as a couple, fit in with any group, and not alienate anyone. Furthermore, they are so relaxed with all of their [now mutual] friends, that I or any of them could sit down in their house, just the three of us, and not at all feel out of place. And if they wanted me or any other person to scram so that they could have sex, the method they'd probably use to get rid of us is to get us drunk.
To me, that right there is the ideal relationship. Where you feel equally comfortable with your friends with or without your partner, and sacrifice nothing with reguards to your friends while maintaining a great relationship. I do know couples on the other end of the spectrum tho, and those guys need to grow some friggin balls too.
