Non-love
In a state of liking or friendship, high intimacy is present, but passion and commitment are lacking. This state is characterized by strong bonds of deep friendship and trust, without romantic feelings or future commitments. Although satisfaction in this state is fine, changes are necessary for deeper relationships.
If you wish to develop a friendship into a romantic relationship, first check if there are romantic feelings towards the other person. Then, effectively start with small steps such as inviting for a date or expressing feelings openly. Also, share visions of the future to strengthen the relationship. Proceed at a comfortable pace for both.
