friend in need is a friend in deed

one of my very best friend once said : u can't choose between friends and your couple bcoz it is a diferent condition..don't try to compare them..
it was the best words i ever heard..
but, somehow..in this life i always face n see a situation which have to deal with these 2 things..
really difficult i believe..thats why i feel proud with someone who can live with those 2 things in the same time..
how bout you, have u ever faced this kind of situation, where every body said to you its better you choose friends weather than your couple..and on the contrary deep in your heart you can't choose...have you??
