Daniel, of course you are entitled to your opinion and the view of the subject, but the practical problem with this kind of reasoning is that, for several reasons concerning the psychology of women, it's way harder to become the lover of a girl that considers you a friend, that to start as her lover in the first place.

A million men who have heard the line "but I love you as a friend" can give proof of this.

Besides, who says that approaching someone with love interest in mind is a bad thing? It's only bad if you're being sneaky about it, but it would surprise you how many girls respond positively to directly being upfront on expressing romantic interest on them. Girls need love, like we do.
