Dating your Bestfriend Good or Bad?

So me and my bestfriend like eachother. Whats y'alls opinion on dating your bestfriend?

If you are fortunate enough to find a long term love interest that is also your best friend, that's about as good as it gets. The down side is when you have issues, they pack a double whammy. You lose both. One of the rules of life is that the greatest chances for gains always come with the highest risks for loss. That's the chance you're taking.

Dont date your best friend. I thought by doing what we did would strengthen our friendship, but we broke up because we were so alike. Dont risk losing your best friend, because I lost one of the most important person in my life. Your friendship is to valuable to lose! If this makes any sense.
