For me, I hear the wistfulness in it. Like she really does like him, and she wants to love him, but she can't. She's resigned to the fact that they have to be friends because something is stopping it.
Maybe one of them already has someone, maybe they both do, but she likes him a whole lot. If they were to end up falling in love it would end up terribly. So she's content with being just friends, just having him confide in her and trust her
