If you don't want to be just friends, then don't be friends. Is that so damned hard?
As in, when she says you can still be friends, you say "no". If she asks why, tell her the truth: "because I'm always going to wavy arelatioship with you, so l can't be just friends".
Its called having enough of a backbone to be honest
No one is forcing you to stay if it's hurting you. It's your responsibility to leave. If you can walk away from a painful relationship, you can and should walk away from a painful friendship as well.
Once in a while, it's not about whose responsibility it is or whose job it is. Once in a while, it's about being a good enough person you want to do the right thing.
A guy staying in such friendship, it's pretty much accepting the situation as it is. And I think that, most of the time, people stay because they haven't really accepted the fact that nothing is going to happen and they still live in hope that maybe some wondrous day things might change. They stay for the wrong reasons. Not genuinely saying 'okay, you're not into me, I accept that and I'm really fine with just friendship'. No, mostly it's 'he/she might fall for me someday'. Which is just deceiving not just themselves, but the other person too. You can't really blame anyone in such situations. Someone falls in love, someone doesn't, it's no one's fault. But you also can't say that one side was completely fair.
@hasrett I agree with your opinion. I must say though I think he is more talking about when the girl knows that the guy is into her and allows him to make a fool of himself with this friendship between the both of you. Those girls don't want to be buddy buddy they want the internal validation of someone liking and adoring them so they keep him around just for that... and that is selfish and wrong.
Haha, so not true. I have this friend who himself friendzoned me years ago. Now he told he has feelings for me so I told him I have no feelings left. He still wants to be my friend, even though I was ready to let him go. But he really appreciates our friendship enough to keep it up. Case closed.

Plenty of women walk away from guys they have feelings for but know they’re no good for them and are just looking to use. They do it all the damn time and have no choice but to be strong doing in that. All you ever hear guys say on that is ‘well it’s her responsibility, she lets me so why would I stop’
Hmm a lot of people seem to be reading this as being stuck in the friendzone is the problem.
I read it as it hurts to be rejected and its hard to distance yourself from someone you care about, maybe not make it even harder having to hear how much of a bad person who didn't really care they are on top of that.
But everyones always going to have an opinion so go figure

I do agree.
When we walk away, don’t spread nasty rumors about us, fantasize about us being raped or beat up or call every guy we do like an asshole. Or kill us.
Go find a gal who digs you and maybe we’ll see each other on the flipside.
I hear what you're saying, but I have a hard time believing that guys can't be just friends with a girl in a strictly platonic way. It may depend on the guy but I have seen it happen.
I agree, this is an issue that men are more likely to face than women, so I don't know why so many women deny this exists.
I don't put men in the friend zone. I just reject them, and leave it at that.

Nobody is forcing you to be anyones friend. If you don't want to be in the friendzone then you're free to leave. If she isn't interested in you it's up to you if you want to be just friends with her or cut contact.
I'd say this nailed it. I only got friend zone once when I was 16-17. After one month I told the girl, "I'm not going to listen to you talk about whatshisname. I'm not going to be your friend, crying shoulder, etc. Call me if you change your mind". I walked away and son of a bitch if she didn't call me. Boy X hit her and she came groveling back. I told her, "If your ready to date and properly have sex, then fine. If not, don't waste my time". We dated for six months and fucked up a storm, Then I determined that she wasn't all that and a bag of chips, so I ended it. Last I heard she had a hard time with crack and meth and really has had a shitty life. C'est la vie !
From my experience girls can't handle the friend zone. All girls i thought i was making friends with get cold towards me once they realize im not into them.
I absolutely agree with women crying about "My friendship is a consolation prize!" We didn't want to be your friend, we aren't obligated to be your friend.
Yes it's real. No it isn't worse than rejection. It's the exact same thing as rejection as a sexual partner--no more, no less. If it feels worse it's because YOU decide to stick around as a friend. That's something you can choose to change.
yes but if dont want this mess join mgtow unlike these feminist that say they care about your rights which they dont Mgtow geniuenly Cares about you men have a nice day :) :) :)

He is talking about the cases where the guy has romantic feelings and the girl does not.

That's why you just do what's best for you and filter out the irrational opinions that don't know jack sh*t.
Well, this ought to be entertaining...

It’s up to the man to walk away because the girl doesn’t want to be the bad guy.
This.
Sometimes, it's not about whose responsibility it is. It's about doing whats right by someone.
It doesn’t matter; if a woman feels something it is reality
Well, after reading this... I don't think you have to worry about me ever wanting to be friends with you, so there's that.
From my experience girls can't handle the friend zone. All girls i thought i was making friends with get cold towards me once they realize im not into them.

Church need to say AMEN !

I agree. If i think interest isn't mutual, i leave without looking back unless they contact me after a while.
