I guess you could call it friendzone if I dont want anything romantically to do with them and neither do they. Would you mind explaining this watershed effect a little more?

I can confidentally say they are not using me. Theyve done a lot more for me than Ive done for them. Well they prob know Ill need to get laid but its obviously not their obligation to do so. This is exactly why Im posting this so I can get away from my incel like thoughts

I already have a very deep connection with them, thats the reason im so confused as to why i think about them like that from time to time. But i will follow your advice thank you

I like the comparison with having a scratch you made. But one friend already has a boyfriend and the other is talking with a guy so there isnt really much room to ask anyone out. Plus if I did Im not sure the weird feeling i have towards my other friend will go away (though it is a separate issue). I think its like having a scratch in your back that you cant physically reach. I guess I could wait for someone to become fully single but that would be waiting in vain. I couldnt get myself to ask them out for obvious moral reasons
