The girl I dated said she want us to remain good friends how should I respond?

[JamieRobinson1994]

I already accepted the fact I threw in the towel because the past month she’s been flaking since the second date. I randomly messaged this morning just to let knew where I realised I went wrong on our date then she respond to that she hoped we remain good friends, how should I respond to that?

[Purpleronnie]

You should respond with honesty and fact not with hurt assuming that is that you wanted more ? . Don’t be saying no out of hurt , do you think you c an have this girl in your life as a friend? Do you want a girl that’s a “ good”friend as you look in other places for a “girlfriend” ? If I were you and I have feelings for the girl or at least thought I did then I would simply say that because I feel that I want more that it would be difficult to make things very difficult but perhaps in time and ask for a little distance while you consider what you need. Can’t help but think you are being tested a little !

[MrOracle]

Absolutely NOT.

Being "friends" with a woman means you do all the work and effort and get none of the rewards. She will need lots of favors, have lots of emergencies, and will need lots of your time and attention. Is that what you want?

[OlderAndWiser]

Do you think she is telling you - indirectly - that there is a possibility to start dating again, or is she just saying this so she can feel less guilty about flaking on you?

[coachTanthony]

I would say no thanks I’m inundated with friends but thank you for the offer

[slatyb]

What does that mean? What do you want? How long have you known her? To me, a "good friend" is someone who responds to your messages and calls and is willing to help if you need it.

[JT017]

I literally asked a similar question about an hour ago. I honestly think I can't, but if you can see yourself being friends with her then that's your answer.

[BadApple69]

You respond with “I want us to remain friends too”.
Sometimes us guys make a horrible first impression. But if the girl gets to know you she might even start to like you.

[SolitarySolace]

I don’t know about you but Id say fuck you I’m not sticking around just to hear you tell me how perfect the new guy you’re with is! And block her ass and hope to never bump into her again.

[Drumlin2001]

You want a friend or a partner? Can't imagine a future partner would be too pleased with you being friends with someone you only recently met and dated

[Cheapskate]

Depends on whether you enjoy the friend zone.

[JamieRobinson1994]

That’s like asking a cat if it enjoys a bath

[Cheapskate]

I'll take that as a no. Then just tell her you would rather not be friends, because who wants to be friends with someone that rejected them?

[JamieRobinson1994]

I said to her have so much self-respect to allow myself to be put in friendzone if that make sense. It she still has yet to get back to me

[Cheapskate]

I think that makes sense. I have gotten friend zoned and kept seeing the woman many times, and honestly, I probably could have spent that time better and saved myself a lot of false hope.

[gorydetails]

You respond " thanks for the offer, but I have enough friends" I was looking for someone to date. Good luck and please don't contact me any more.

[KrakenAttackin]

Respond simply with "OK" and never contact her again.
