Let's Just Be Friends

Can someone please explain this to me: when people break up and say... this isn't going to lead to marriage but we could be friends, or we could do lunch or something, people don't mean it, do they?

This scene from the Social Network (Brilliant movie by the way)
where Erika is breaking up with Mark

Erika: Let's just be friends
Mark: Who are you kidding? We aren't going to be just friends.
Erika: I was trying to be polite. I have no intentions of being your friend.

And a good quote:

Having the love of your life say you can just be friends is like having your dog die and your mom saying you can keep it.
