Urban Dictionary
Going as friends usually is an unfortunate scenario for one party and just ok for the other. It is when (usually) a guy asks a girl that he likes on a date. But for this poor soul the girl only sees him as a friend. She will accept but as to negate the guy having any thoughts of making any sort of romantic move she labels it as going as friends. The guy, even though in the long run it is bad for him, accepts as to just get to spend time with her. This occurs commonly when a party has been placed in the friendzone.
This scenario could be reversed where the girl is the guy and the guy is the girl.

Get the generation xerox mug.The way rejection tends to be handled by Californians, who are sunny in disposition and less brusque than East Coast residents. Instead of bluntly saying "no," Californians say no by avoiding the question, forgetting to respond to emails, and generally postponing the issue. The best way to give a California no is to do nothing at all, as opposed to saying it outright.
This is especially popular in the entertainment industry. For example, Everybody Loves Raymond creator Phil Rosenthal is quoted as saying: "To me, postponing a Hollywood lunch meeting is the new passing. They figure they'll postpone you until you go away. This way, they are not saying no. If that happens more than twice -- obviously emergencies come up -- you've got to get the hint."
