But If We Started Dating It Would Ruin Our Friendship Where I Ask You To Do Things And You Do Them

This is one of the sharpest, most bitterly satirical articles from The Onion that I've seen in years. I've thankfully mostly avoided the situation of the guy in the article, though this should be required reading:
It's just…you're like my best friend, and I would hate for something you desperately want to change that. I mean, sure, we could go on some dates, maybe mess around a little and finally validate the six years you've spent languishing in this platonic nightmare, but then what? How could we ever go back to the way we were, where I take advantage of your clear attraction to me so I can have someone at my beck and call? That part of our friendship means so much to me.

    Hm. I don't even have a proper 'platonic friendship', so I don't even imagine that it could be worse than nothing.
