Friend zone there's more to it



To anyone who is in the friend-zone I ask you to re-evaluate your friendship if you really are friends with the person of your desires and ask yourself these questions:

1. Have I been blind to his or her flaws since I like them?
2. Do I like this person for who they are or do I like them for the person I think they are?
3. Can we still be friends if it all goes south & will you help rebuild what you destroyed?

Many times when we like a person we tend to forget that they are humans with flaws just like we are and we tend to put them on a pedestal. We spend most of our timing trying to when them over by pleasing them and making sure they’re happy without really asking or caring about what they want.

Secondly we tend to fall for the person because we like them for who we think they are. For instance I thought I was madly in love with this girl she was perfect; she had a wonderful sense of humor, she was spontaneous and outgoing but underneath it all she was controlling and had a short temper. So be sure you really know the person you want to be with.

Third if you really care about this person like you say or think you do obviously your feeling will be deeper than just sexually intimacy, you want the best for that person even if its not you, you care whether or not if you intentionally hurt that person. It takes a lot of courage to tell someone how you feel and it really hurts to be rejected by someone you really thought liked you for you so even though you didn’t intentionally hurt will you continue to stick by that person until they feel better or will you leave to solve it on their own.

Lastly if you have no intentions on being a true friend, then do not recommend that you remain just friends if you weren’t friends to begin with just tell them you’re not interested it’ll save a lot of time and the other person’s self-esteem.
