Is marrying your best friend a good idea?

I got married to a friend who was was known to me for 8 years. We were good friends for 4 years, but after 2 years, I started to feel that she has all the qualities that I was looking for, in a partner, but was nervous to check if she felt the same. We disclosed this to each other after another year and then started the real test of our life which took away 4 years of our precious youth. But we were very clear that we will not get married in the absence of our parents or without their knowledge. Once we got married, another phase began and everybody knows how a working daughter-in-law would be treated. Nevertheless, we are happily married now for 8 years. I always feel it is good to get married to a good friend if it is acceptable to both. If you get married to someone else, it will be difficult to carry on with the friendship unless you have a very understanding partner and you will be risking both the relationships.
