as a friend

Used to draw the "no sex/physical intimacy" boundaries. Generally used for people who have an agreeable personality but no sex appeal. A nice way of saying "I could never get on you."

I know we've been dating a lot, but I just like you as a friend.

friend

"a friend is something you obviously don't have, since you're browsing urban dictionary instead of hanging out with them"

Person 1: "hey look at this definition of a friend."
Person 2: "yep you really don't have any friends."

as a friend

Used by someone who opts out of offered intimacy when they don't fancy you.

"I'll go out for a drink with you but as a friend."

Should be countered with

"But couldn't I just shag you as a friend?"

Friend A

A good friend who is merely in love, but decides to help you with your love anyways. They're usually sweet and kind, but discreet. They're just forging a friend relationship with you to keep tabs in a non-stalker way.

Friend 1: What the fuck. What is that girl doing?
Friend 2: She loves him but she's helping him out to go out with Becky
Friend 1: //scoff// gosh, she's such a friend A

Friend

A word that defines those you keep company with. A person that is, trusting, caring, and will stick with you through thick and thin. The one you can talk to about anything and they wont judge you for it. Someone that when times are hard stands beside you saying "lets do this." The person that if no one else will, will stick up for you.

Sam: Hows it going Nick?

Nick: Not to good my Friend .

Sam: Why? Whats up man?

Nick: My girl just left, cars broke, cant pay my rent now. Shall I go on?

Sam: Nah, alright lets go get a beer and have a chat man, its on me.
