''Well, no one kisses on the lips after they break up either, much less say I love you.? ''

People do that all the time. It's the g-rated version of 'break up sex'.

I think what happened after iLove You conclusively proved that they meant I Love You as friendship only. They never referenced it again, never got back together, Freddie only joked about it once, Sam joked about it once, and nothing happened ever again between them. I think it's pretty conclusive that they only loved each other as friends.
