what were u expecting?

i think the majority of us have come to a point in our lives where we don't need to make any more close friends. my point being... we're so damn busy and yet we can't focus on our existing core of good friends. so when ur interested in someone u've gotten to know... and u realize they just wanna be friends.. why continue to be friends? does that suck? if u don't like me or i don't like u, why even attempt to become friends? why even continue to hang out? am i making sense? is the hope of getting with that person under the guise of friendship worth diluting ur existing friend base?
