== Method ==
# Intent she can see in the first conversation.
# Don't become the 2 a.m. therapist.
# If it is already platonic, you probably start over with someone else rather than 'confessing' after a year.

== Failure mode ==
Being cold to avoid being a friend. That's just unpleasant. Intent is not cruelty.
