When a man can't make up his mind and misses his window of opportunity with a woman, the woman mentally places him in her "friend bucket". Once relegated to this category, he may never be able to get back to being considered "boyfriend bucket" material.
Sam and Alma met on the train, and seemed to have chemistry together, but after 3 weeks of waiting for Sam to make his move, Alma decided to move on. Sam got dumped into the 'friend bucket' and he has no chance of regaining "boyfriend bucket" status.
