as a friend

Share definition
Used to to draw the line in a relationship, most commonly between men and women. When said by a man, means "you're not attractive enough for me." Can also mean the same when said by a woman, but there's the more devious "you are not manly enough for me," which is to say "wishy washy."
Mike, you're a really cool guy, but I only like you as a friend.

A term of rejection used to soften the the blow when dumping someone.

Often used with other phases like
"You are like a big brother to me."
"You are such a nice guy." and "It's not you, it's me."
