Let's Just Be Friends Edit Meaning

1.

What a girl says to you when she'd rather be with an asshole who will use her, abuse her, and eventually break her heart, even though she knows that you would never do those things to her.

When a girl says to you, "let's just be friends", that's like your mom telling you, "the dog died, but you can still keep it if you want to."

You: I love you! :)

Wench: Let's just be friends..

You: Gee thanks, couldn't you have pushed me off a two-story building, or shot me? It would have hurt less. :(

2.

Let's never have sex

I like you, but let's just be friends.

See just, friends, i like you

3.

Real meaning: "I'll talk to you for about a day after our break up, but that's it."

You're a great guy and all, but let's just be friends.

See Arkay

The ultimate put down; what woman say when they want to hear your heart actually break, and enjoy it.

Used when you have just made a drunken fool of yourself explaining your unrequited love to the Office Tease and she wants you to know that your rate lower than thrush, but in a "nice way".

5.

Don't be fooled by my "friendly" approach to this long-awaited break-up: I don't look forward to seeing you again in the near or distant future.

Your conduct during this "relationship" has been of such an annoying nature that we can never, ever be friends.

Me: "Let's just be friends."

Fool: "Ok. So, what are you doing this weekend?"

Me: "You don't get it, do you?"

Basically the way someone will break upwith you if they are trying put it nicely (see euphemism). The word "just" is the word that hurts. It's like saying, "Let's never go further than being friends. Never." Take out the "just" and it doesn't seem so bad, right?

"Hey Paul, I really like you, let's just be friends." Ehh, this doesn't work.. There has to be a "but" in there.

"Hey Paul, I really like you, but let's just be friends." Perrrfect. That one hurts more than a freight train.

See i hate you, break up

You aren't enough of an assholefor me to show interest in you, as I'd rather be treated like shit by men whose IQs rival my shower drain than actually give you the time of day.

You see, if I carefully thought about the things I really want in a relationship (and indeed the very things that I tell you that I want), rest assured you would be off the charts! But I learned at an early age to completely misrepresent everything I really want just to see you writhe in emotional agony, so that I know I have you completely under my power.

So instead of actually pursuing a relationship with you which likely has a great chance of success, I'd rather try to pursue some dickwho is lacking even the most basic level of moral decency and whom I could never possibly maintain a friendship with, let alone a serious relationship! But gee, I'd sure like for you to stick around so I can have someone to confide in when he treats me miserably without ever having to actually reciprocate anything you are feeling.

And besides, are you really "feeling" anything in the first place? I thought that men didn't have emotions. Whatever; even if you say you do I'm just going to discredit and invalidate everything you feel because it's clearly less important than my drive to conquer and tame that asshole at the bar who just told me to blowhim while his buddy fucksme from behind. What a dick! Although he is kind of cute, his buddy too...

Oh, you're still here?

You: We have just about everything in common, we hang out all the time, I enjoy your company and you admit to enjoying mine; I think we should take things to the next level. Wanna date?

Her: Let's just be friends.

See just, friends, rejection, women, dishonesty
