Y'know, I'm just fine if this story just stays one of friendship without a romantic dimension (caring friendships are a Good Thing); but, since it's ongoing, I'm unsure as to how the writer of the synopsis is convinced that the story is not going to have that dimension. If it does develop such a dimension, then some people may feel suckered. Perhaps the synopsis should be more along the lines of saying that it seems that there won't be romance.
