Once you have a great relationship with a person you end up getting comfortable around them. That wall of defense comes down, you don't have to constantly worry that what you'll say will offend them, or that they'll judge you from what you said. You start to feel comfortable being you, because you trust that person. That person can bring the best out of you, because they'll always see the positives that we tend to not be able to see ourselves.
On the other hand, due to having a great relationship with someone you also tend to see the worst of that person too. Only because they feel comfortable not only showing you the good side but all sides to them. Their problems become your problems, because they go to you to confined to. Although, at times it may feel overwhelming at the same time I see it as a privilege, because out of the many people they could have gone to they went to you.
Relationships can always bring out the best and the worst of people, but like all things there's a balance between the two.
