"Friends first then we'll see" is equivalent to "Mommm, can I have a puppy?" "Hm. We'll see." She didn't say no so she must mean YES! It's that excited "Ohhhh, this is great!" feeling, anticipation, waiting ... but the only problem is ... sometimes "We'll see" means "Mommy does not want to get into a battle of wills right now so go build a doghouse to keep your little self busy for awhile. If I wait long enough, you'll forget allllll about that puppy." I was one of those kids who didn't stop at the doghouse. I named it, made clothes for it, saved my allowance for its food, and called for fence estimates. (As a woman of 40-something, it is why I don't do casual play or scene with "we'll see friends". I know myself too well.) It's all a matter of knowing one's limitations. Although after considering it for awhile, it's definitely on my list of regrets. "I regret I didn't scene casually with RRafe." Ohhh dear. And that seems so easily fixable too. I hate regrets. Maybe in your case I could make an exception. (I'm such a pig.)
