Have you spent time with each other’s families? Have you attended special events together? Such as class reunions, birthday or holiday celebrations, weddings, or extended car trips? Are you each other’s emergency contacts? Do you ever drink together at work? Perhaps while summarizing what you’ve learned over the day or week? Have you shared intimate details of your fears, hopes, and dreams? Both personal and professional. Is this the longest and perhaps most meaningful relationship in your life? Do you often find yourselves thinking the same thing and then saying it at the exact same time?
