intentions mean everything. did you develop feelings for your friend, or did you develop a friendship because you refused to accept romantic rejection and hoped if you stuck around as a friend it might change.

As a successful friend to lover I made it clear that nothing had to change if they didn't want me back and that I love them regardless, I just wanted to be honest. If you can't still be friends if they don't want you romantically, did you ever really love them?

There’s a difference between friends to lovers and only being friends with someone to become lovers

Friends to lovers also isn’t someone in the friendzone getting a chance, very different situations

it’s the intention behind the friendship. just happening to fall in love, is ok

I think people don’t have the nuance anymore there is a difference between catching feelings for your friends and becoming friends with someone to make her fall in love

Friends to lovers is honestly a waste of time. If you like that person then just be intentional about it from jump. Friends to lovers generally means you didn’t like them at first and they get last pick.

I think the problem, and it's not just Gen Z, is when the feelings aren't reciprocated. You either lose your best friend or you realize they never were your best friend they just like you. Then the switch flips and they are gone.So the realization that oh you didn't really want to be my friend. And that is bad already for people who can't make friends now it's “you were only my friend because you wanted something from me.” it's a terrible feeling.

The problem is when friendship is a consolation prize. My best friend fell for me, we took space, he’s having a tough time that I met someone. It’s just going to be different now. No one did anything wrong.

I miss my friend and I think about her everyday. She's not talking to me anymore because of some bs caused by someone who couldn't mind their business... Never wanted her to leave my life and I'll always love her and I was always her friend. Things just unfortunately happen....

I think whether you became friends for the purpose of dating, or become friends and then develop feelings is valid. Me personally, I don't date people I don't understand, or I don't know enough about, I want to guage that person and their feelings, I want to be friends with someone before I date them full on, and know that person deeper then that. And no changing my mind on that.

It’s the ambiguity that’s the issue. If you know someone likes you and you don’t like them then don’t lead them on. There’s a difference. Just don’t play with people’s emotions

I think you're misinterpreting what's being said, getting to know someone before becoming romantically involved should be a thing, especially if you want your partner to be your best friend.

Idk I kinda feel there’s a difference between approaching under the guise of friendship only to try to get with em, and genuinely being friends with each other and those feelings developing over time with each. I think people really just dislike the first and would probably much rather be approached straightforwardly, I’m no professional
