The friendzone is when a man has romantic desire towards a woman, and she genuinely likes him... as a friend. It is real, and it is largely something women do to men, because most men do not have the charisma, confidence, that women find so attractive.
The female version would be the fuckzone. It's when a guy is interested in occasionally banging a girl... but not interested in actually dating her or having a relationship.
The Friendzone exists for women too. I seen lots of girls rejected by guys that didn't feel the same way, and I have myself several times.
But girls don't stick around that's the difference
Probably depends. Smart guys know to next girls who try that as well. It's the idiots who get in trouble.
wait, you say it's not real, but basically listed everything a friend zone would be defined as, as a fact of life? I don't get it. Are you saying narnia is real?
Lol no I'm not... I think the friend zone is something men make up to deal better with rejection however get the struggle that men face. It was hastily written while I should have been working sorry
It is needed, and correct. I've wasted all of high school bouncing between girls who never liked me, and I had no chance with. The friend zone is just a cop out for men's failure to attract women. Thank you for preaching the truth
I have seen people first be friends then decide to date and it doesn't work. They are better as friends than in a relationship. It does happen but its not really a bad thing.
Nope, the friend zone definitely exists. It's just when you get rejected but still stay friends. That's all there is to it.
Sometimes girls like to lead guys on, and that's sometimes called the friend zone as well.
I don't agree that you can't do anything with friendzone...
romantic relations that blossom from friendship are more reliable...
guys just lose hope and put the blame on f-zone...
Its real, guys just make it sound dreadful as all hell. It simply means you are a friend and she doesn't see you as more and doesn't see that changing. Nobody is obligated to be attracted to you, either move on or throw a temper tantrum.
@far2gud4u untrue. First you say its Narnia, then you admit that its true and give solutions on how to get out of it? Whether its called unrequited love, or whatever, that zone does exist for the person. Its real.
no I dont ever acknowledge its a real thing, I know people go through unrequited love and stick around after rejection hoping though.
You said it's partly true, and a half truth is the ultimate lie. You say it again, people go through unrequited love. That's friendshipzone. End of story. It's just another name for something that's real. How long a person chooses to stay in the friendship zone is the debatable part.
wow you are one of those annoying people who have to be right all the time huh? For a start look at the girls and what they have commented. It is simply something created by rejects (I can see why you are so passionate about this now because you probably LIVE in the 'friend zone') who sit and lick their wounds and not accept that they are unwanted hoping someone will 'come to their senses'
Girls either say they want to be friends because they are trying to be nice, or because you are being put to one side to be used later. WE DONT NEED MORE FRIENDS! ESPECIALLY ONES WHO LIKE US!!!
Your not even good looking i dont know why you're being a bitch lol. That was so out of line
@take owner "Girls either say they want to be friends because they are trying to be nice, or because you are being put to one side to be used later. " not only did you admit it was real you said exactly what it was.
What if I said I liked her early and she said she wants to take it slow. Then couple weeks later called me a good friend.
Which scenario in your take is that?
thats a number 2 who lead you to believe you were a number 1. the worst kind of girl who collects guys usually. please be careful
So she was afraid I would leave if she said no early? String me along to get me more attached?
no she was never afraid but you are of benefit to string along, i am sure you do a lot for her out of affection or are prepared to... ALTHOUGH she hinted you are a good friend which was maybe your cue to get out and leave and you haven't...
I strongly thought about leaving when she called me a friend, but then decided what the hell why can't we just be friends... i'm bored sometimes
Plus I don't want to seems like a dick, after there was something I told her I'll help her with and then suddenly leave.
so you are already helping her with something?
Yes at the gym, its not a big deal though just showing her how its done. Also when we went out we shared the bills.
hmm see I think she is already finding uses for you and that is a worry. What she will most likely do is get to the gym, get herself in shape to meet someone and then you are waving your arms going 'errr hello?' help her if you must but dont do it at your gym so you won't run in to her in future then end it there :) x
So you're saying help her a bit then end it? Thanks I am considering it.
help her enough so you dont feel evil then end it :) x
Tell her where to get off ! Walked away and never, I repeat never speak to her
ever again, exude confidence almost to the point of being arrogant. Tell her you want more than friendship
and walk away. Women don't like being trumped or being told where to get off. By
doing this, you've taken her control away. With most women it's always about control.
I always said "Your loss Toots ! And never gave them the time of day.
Ahh but it depends on the girl as I would say 'so glad we never dated!' But I agree on most of it. The girls I think are the hardest to deal with are the ones who are lonely and u fill a void but it not what they want as a be. These are the snugglers who will watch a movie n pretty much date u without getting any benefits :-/
boyfriend *
Yes she is kinda lonely after being divorced year ago.
Lol, let me guess once someone points out women are friendzoned too, you will magically soften your position.
naw anyone who wines about the friendzone is a manipulative asshole even if it's a woman :)
You couldnt be more wrong. You are just ignorant and hateful.
Women are also treated this way but as it is a 'My Take' I cannot make an opinion on that when I have no experience of it. I know people are rejected day in, day out but no, i won't soften my opinion. This is about pride and having some!!
Lol yet you have no problem blasting men being in the friendzone, something you have ZERO first hand knowledge of, but that doesn't seem to stop you.
Lol friend zone doesn't exist...
Lots a made up construct by ugly dudes and personality deficient idiots who want to rationalize that they're simply too good for people rather then confront and acknowledge their own issues.
not dateable + being a friend = friendzone, though?
Nope because if u r a friend who is not dateable it just makes u a friend. The key in the above pic and real definition is 'no longer a dating option'
And that's the friendzone... One friend wants to date the other but that person doesn't want to date them.
No it's not!!! It's called being rejected!!! Either ur a dating prospect or ur not we don't want u as a friend and any girl who says it doesn't really mean it.
What if she actually does want to be friends anyways?
Then it's the friendzone.
The friend zone, is a term describing when the girl is not attracted to a boy in a romantic fashion, but still like him for different reasons.
So it does indeed exist, but is not friend zone like some believe it is.
but the girl doesn't need him in her life most of the time, if she keeps him its usually for her own uses and that is bad...
Right, I didn't take any moral standpoint on this because it depends on her motive for keeps him in her life.
If he was a good friend that simply felt in love with her, then why should she be the one saying we can't be friends any more, if he can't handle it, then he has to call it off, not her, she is not to blame for his feelings.
If however, she only keeps him for selfish reasons (like personal confirmation , attention) then it's bad, so it all depends.
For myself in this experience, I have always ended the friendship on a good note no matter what... This isn't about what he can handle for me, its about knowing i could hurt him and i dont want that... I cannot look at anyone I care for and think I am hurting him... I would explain this to him though and if he still wanted to keep being friends then I would be up for trying if he was 110% sure he would be able to do it...
How about this Work out get jacked become hot dress better impress her and she might change her mind
Friendzone = womaneze for I like your personality but you ugly af
lol if you consider yourself good looking I will take it as a compliment, thank you :)
Also that little bit of philosophy is a load of crap 'impress her' is laughable as you are attention seeking and at that point its just embarrassing. have some pride.
Appearance is much less important than you believe:
thematinggrounds.com/what-are-women-attracted-to/
Which is why a woman can see a guy, find him attractive, and then totally lose interest once he opens his mouth.
to musphelem_5. Appearance is what draws people in, which is pretty important. Personality and good character is what makes people stay of course.
I'm going through a friendzone situation with a classmate, I'm probably going to end the friendship abruptly with her and quit school, especially now that she's seeing someone, too painful.
Don't quit school
!
Don't quit school she's not worth it just go your own separate ways x
Don't quit school! I know it hurts, but just try to take some time away from her! Try to stay off any social media you have her on or even temporarily deactivate it. This will prevent you from seeing anything that could hurt you and allow you to think about other girls.
And its okay if you want to end the friendship, but don't be mean about it. If she asks just tell her you've been busy (or the even truth if you're comfortable with it). Do what you gotta do to heal bro, just don't do anything you'll need to apologize for later
Good luck and I hope you feel better man!
Don't quit school! You'e education is way more important than some girl that you haven't worked things out with. Just slowly distance yourself from her and move on. Finish your class, and then initiate conversations with her again.
lmao, being friends with a girl is like being in two places or dimensions at one time; it's completely theoretical
It exists for those that get stuck there and moreso view being friends with someone as some sort of taboo.
I still say it exists. A friend zone doesn't have to be a conscious decision.
Only ugly guys get friend zoned
Or assholes that still throw awesome parties, just saying.
I'm nowhere near an asshole but I should become one.
If you're ugly you may as well go all the way :)
I am and why would I waste the girls time? When she can get someone better looking?
Lol I guess if you don't have a mind to offer
What?
If you think that a girl is better off without you because you're ugly, then you're insinuating you have nothing in your mind that will make you stand out either..
Well I don't have anything to offer her so why waste her time? And mine?
No, no and no. If a girl likes a guy, she ACTS; Doesn't wait for him to make a move.
That's how it should be, but that's not how it is unfortunately.
Women are always too afraid of being "easy" or "demanding" to ask a guy out. Smh
lol that photo, like a lamp xD
