You know all those guys being butt hurt over being placed in 'the friend zone'? You know, the place guys apparently go when the chick they want only considers them a friend and nothing else?



Pff. Cause that's a thing.



In in my opinion the friend zone does not exist. What does exist, is guys being butt hurt because they aren't what that girl wants. Or being butt hurt because they think the chick sees them as only a friend.


Hey, I'm living proof that s guy can believe they're in 'the friend zone' when in reality, that chick is pining for him.


I've been with my boyfriend for about a week now (did I pay attention to the day he officially asked me out? No. Why would I do that?) and he had thought I was uninterested. He's had it in his head that I thought of him as only a friend. Which I didn't. I mean I don't dream of people I consider 'just friends' do I? Well I do just not the kind of dreams he was in.


Anyway. Moving on.


Part of the reason why my guy thought he'd been 'friend zoned' was because, well. I hadn't exactly been making it obvious that I liked him. Hey, don't blame me. First crush in my life I'm bound to not know how to deal with it. So I kind of just ignored it. Though you'd think my absolute clinginess when I was tipsy to be a signal right? In my head I was telling myself to leave him alone or I'd be hanging off his arm all night and in reality . . . That's exactly what I was doing.


Im not a clingy person I swear. I am not that high maintenance (give me food and I'll love you forever. That's my maintenance level)



So when we started organising our 'wedding' (to piss a friend off) he figured it was all part of the joke. Which it was. There is no way I'm dressing up as pikachu at an Irish Blues Clues themed wedding if I ever get married. I will be wearing a tux. And I don't care what you say to that, just try getting me into one of those blasted dresses.


After a couple of weeks of fake wedding planning I somehow let it slip that I would in fact date him. He took that as part of the joke. Confused the heck out of him too. (Apparently I have a knack for that). Went into class the next day and s friend that I sit next to turned around said 'so I hear you have s boyfriend.'


wait. I do?



so that just created more confusion and s couple days later we had s great big talk about it (he'd had a couple of Baileys so was a little out of it) cleared s few things up. I liked him. He liked me. (That should be present tense) he hung up to get sober. Rang me back. Asked me to be his girlfriend and I just sat there grinning like an idiot. Then said yes.


So yup.


So the friend zone is a shit term. Unless the chick has said straight out no, then you can't say she wouldn't date you or doesn't want to. If she does say no then, well. You're in the land of the rejected. Not the friend zone.


Have a lovely day everyone.


you all make such


good


friends.
