She wouldn't be jealous, since she doesn't think of him that way (we assume), but how do you think she'd feel? I think at the most she'd be jealous if he started to spend loads of time with a girlfriend and not with her. Not obviously, but say she stops being Nora for a second and looks a little sad when Ren goes off with the girl, Weiss or Blake or someone (They're the two I think Ren would suit best)

To be perfectly honest, I think Nora and Ren simply don't care about relationships. Ren is too quiet and Nora probably doesn't even know what romance is, but that's what makes her likeable. I'd like one show where the two friends don't get romantically involved with each other. The only other time this hasn't happened was in the book Unravelling, but yet again, that's because the boy gets shot in the neck (Note: Don't take any inspiration from Unravelling please, Monty. I do not want one of the characters to end up like Reid.) people say that Ren doesn't get annoyed, but he did in EP8 when Nora was singing and he shouted "NORA!", though she didn't seem to mind and just shouted "Coming, Ren!" I think Episode 8 really made me love their friendship, because the only time Nora was serious through the entire episode was when Ren got knocked into the pillar. Seriously, that was the first time I'd seen her look scared. And finally, I don't even WANT them to get romantically involved with each other. It's one of those things where you know if they get together, it will ruin the whole show. To be honest, if they are in a relationship, I doubt much would change to begin with. Both of them seem to be stuck in their ways, so other than it being offical - I doubt much would change. It would be the stupid awkward stuff for like a episode or two, then everything would naturally gravitate back to normal. Otherwise - not much change in my opinon. Though frankly - I agree, I'm sick of the friends turning romantically trope as well. Would much prefer them to remain friends.
