there's no such thing as the friend zone -Filthy Frank
try it, not all girls will take it, but it could work.
I met my partner while practicing "talking to people" and getting them to do what I want.
chat apps provide great desperate people looking for attention...
... yup I'm horrible I know, but I needed someone to try...
anyway I flirted, they flirted back, I admitted to liking them, they liked me back, we talked, my experiment failed but I found a lover - sometimes picking someone up is easier, now that I think of it

Definitley ! Being friends beforehand means you really get to know the person and means that you have a much stronger emotional bond to them. :)
I find that it also helps in making you more comfortable around your partner (as in you aren't constantly worried about being gross, stupid or not looking your absolute best all of the time.)
It doesn't necessarily have to be the first step. But in long term relationships, friendship is one of the most important factors. The friendship doesn't have to exist before the relationship though, as it will grow over time.
Not really. It CAN be a stepping stone. But not a necessary step. You can go from attracted, to into a relationship and form love only to form a friendship later down the road.
Not really. If you act like a friend he or she will probably see you as a friend.

Not all the time, in my case, as soon as we saw each other we knew that there will be something more, it was like love at first sight but none of us wanted to admit (until later on when we got into an actual relationship) we started dating, there was this INTEREST since the very beginning, to him, i was never a friend, and vice versa :)
After 3 years we're still rocking it :Das long as friendship is included in a relationship in large amount its fine. people wanna make it complicated and be good friends over a long period of time before dating... which is unnecessary when you know you both are getting along perfectly
Why the heck is there a picture of two 11 year olds kissing? Yuck. Most cases when that does happen, when it ends it's a lot worse because you have a high chance of losing a friend as well as a lover.
ideally but not necessarily in that order. though friendship ought definitely to surface at some point for a good relationship.
Yes. The best relationships are those which have a solid foundation of friendship first.
Yes, I totally think you need a friendship before you have a relationship.
