Two best friends who live together – both divorced – say any potential men they date need to be aware that the two women are a “package”.
Best friends Marissa Baker, 31, and Patty Kulak, 28, moved in together after splitting from their partners in 2021, SWNS reported.
The pair said they are “platonic soul mates”.

They also claim that they’re often mistaken for a couple — and people keep asking if they’re in a relationship because they get along so well, SWNS also noted.
The friends moved in together in Naples, Florida in May 2021. They say they have “friend dates,” exercise together, and do chores together.

Now they’ve decided to help each other get back on the dating scene — and let it all slip past each other.
Baker told SWNS in an interview that they’re “like wives” — and that they tell potential dates they “come as a package.”
Kulak, who works in community planning, told SWNS, “Dating is so interesting.”

“In every decision I make about a man I’m going to date, I will let her guide me first.”
She said as the women are “always together,” potential male dates are beginning to realize “that it’s not just a roommate situation.”

She said it’s about more than just having a best friend. It’s about “a partnership”.

That spring, the women decided to share an apartment together.
Baker said she and her best friend have “the freedom to be ourselves,” as reported by SWNS.
They’re both into “positivity and personal development.”
She added: “We have fun together, we laugh together, I can be weird. I’m messy sometimes – there’s no one to judge or criticize me.”
