I'll freely admit that I have a friend that I originally wanted to date. We worked together, and after I learned that she was married, I made a conscious effort to just be the best "friend" I could be....no thoughts of a hook-up, no worries beyond just being her friend.
She got divorced from the jerk she was married to (her words, not mine), and I had to re-think my relationship with her. Should I try to move things into something "non-friendship"? Date her?
In the end, I decided that I liked having her as my friend, and I've never had to worry about my feelings for her since. Hell, I'm the guy who set her up with her current boyfriend!
