Perhaps it should be:
"I only wanted us to be friends"

Does it change the original meaning?

it isnt a big changing, but in original text "I oly wanted to be friend." gives the same meaning.

In English we have to use something before that singular noun "friend".
We can't say "I only wanted to be friend"

Besides the option I gave above, it could be either "I only wanted to be your friend" or "I only wanted to make friends with you".

evet fazla ama ingilizce de sadece be friend olarak kullanamazmışız.
