Don’t put yourself IN the friend zone in the first place… if someone is friends with someone only because they think/hope it will turn into more, that’s on THEM and not the other person… If you like someone as more than just friends you should be upfront about that from the get go, and if they say their not looking for more than friendship from you, and you can’t accept that, you move on, cuz I’d you don’t, I’m sorry you can’t even call that “friend zone” cuz a REAL friend is someone that should be honest and upfront, and if you’re only being friends with someone expecting/going for more; well that’s not being very upfront or honest🤷♀️

I have a better question, why can’t people take no for an answer? Why do people have this need to cross boundaries when their expectations didn’t go the way they wanted them to?
I get rejection sucks but if someone were to do that with me, I don’t think I would want them as a partner. Because they would get upset anytime something doesn’t go their way.
I wouldn’t mind starting a relationship with a guy that I’m friends with but only if feelings are mutual.
DON’T. FORCE. RELATIONSHIPS.
First, you don’t get in there to begin with. Nothing wrong with having female friends but when you are “just friends” with some girl you like then that’s a wrap.
Second, if you’re in the friend zone I think you should recognize it for what it is and just move on. Groveling for her time and being available to serve for those male needs she wants while not being actually valued as a man who she would actually commit to is a losing proposition. There is definitely a pattern to guys who find themselves in the friend-zone and it usually is a correctable situation. Maybe not for the girl who friend-zones you but for future meetings.
Remove them from your life. Decline when they want you to do "boyfriend" things without the benefit.
No kidding when a woman tells me "let's just be friends" I respond by saying "I'm not interested in that" and remove them from my life and treat them like they don't exist.. 9 times out of 10 they come back saying they made a mistake. Unfortunately for them, I'm once bitten twice shy. I don't give second chances. So my response is usually " you should have thought of that before you rejected me"
Thank God I'm married and don't have to deal with that any more.

If you’re in the friend zone she doesn’t see you as a potential partner, period! You need to have some self respect. And just leave. I’ve been in that situation. I knew a girl who tried to do that to me in the past. I just told them the truth. I said, “Like I can’t be just friends because I like you. So I’m leaving because it’ll be better for my mental health. And that way I can move on, because I know I won’t if I stay as your friend.” And she got pissed at me. But tried to hide it. And I think she’s depressed now because she deleted her social media.
Don't accept it. If you want to date someone and they are all, "oh we're just friends." Make sure they understand that you don't feel that way, and move on. If they call you make it clear, again, that you are only interested in a romantic relationship, otherwise please don't call.
The friendzone isn't real (and neither are girlfriends).
be genuine...
either be a true friend or nothing, just get out of thatIf you wanted to be more than friends you might as well tell them because once you do and take the rejection you can get over it and be actual friends or just move on.
Walk away. You do that and she will either chase you or not care least then you know
There is NO escaping the Friend Zone! Ever! Mw-ah-ha-ha-ha!
simplest and best tip ever: just don't stay in the friendszone. nobody can force you to be or stay friends with them. if they don't want you romantically, just stop being friends.
i don't do Friendzone. i am a simple-minded person. if you don't like me i don't like you too
I should have asked that 20 years ago! I tried could not get out of the friend zone.
Your in the friend zone most likely because you are at her beckoning call and will do whatever and whenever she wants.
Woman like men to lead, which is a masculine trait. By being available to her whenever she wants your showing that you have no spine or life.Tell her bro you have hot boobs can I suck?
She will automatically remove you from friend zone. lol.If it's like in the picture, you get out of the friend zone by backing up into the acquaintance zone or out of their life altogether. Don't try to push foreward over someone's boundaries.
Tell her she's a hoe. You'll be out of the friend zone
Don't. Stay there. You'll miss your friend when it all blows up in your face.
There is no upward exit frim the friendzone.
There is no such thing as the friend zone, but if you insist on believing there is one, you probably put yourself there.
Its the hotel california - you can check out anytime you like - but you can never leave
You don't let yourself get put there in the first place. If says "let's just be friends" you tell her in no uncertain terms that's not what you want.
learn why you got there :D I don't think it happened without a reason...
