+1 yThat's not on her man, girls don't friendzone you just because you're a "nice guy". By the way calling yourself a nice guy is actually hurting the situation, be humble. If you truly are a nice guy, the girl knows that and if she is friendzoning you it has to do with something else about you. Perhaps the fact that you are a bit conceited by calling yourself a "nice guy". Remember when it comes to relationships girls are much much much more clever than we are, they aren't swayed by something as simple as being a nice guy; it is way more broad than that. Do everything you can to be a nice guy, obviously, but in the end that is for her to decide not you.

+1 yIf there is no attraction at first , then generally there never will be , esp from women to men , the " Zoned " guys ( nearly always males ) simply have to cut her lose and walk away , often the woman in question will use him , because he happily LETS her !! I have never been zoned , but have had , and still have some good female friends , I don't develop feelings very easily , an advantage of my detached nature.

+1 yUh, I can't date every single guy who shows interest in me, that would make me a cheater & a pass around.
Also, a lot of guys crush on girls who aren't necessarily compatible for them when it comes to values, life goals, and relationship expectations. A lot of girls notice this and decide that if the guy is genuinely nice, she'd rather be friends.
Lastly, it takes two to establish the fabled "friendzone". If she tells you she doesn't view you as a romantic partner, it's not like she's following you around with a gun to your head demanding that you stay friends. Guys willingly act friendly in the hopes that girls will change their mind.60 Reply
+1 yNot all good guys get friendzoned by all girls. It is always going to be about personal preference. Most young and inexperienced girls are going to think they want a bad boy because good guys are "boring". It'll only take her a few to realize that she needs to grow up and try a good guy. But as another girl said, there is a tremendous difference between good guys and Good Guys™

1.1K opinions shared on Girl's Behavior topic. There’s a difference between a good guy and a Good Guy™. Good guys know that not every woman is going to want to be with them sexually or romantically. Good Guys™ believe that they’re owed sex or a date for being nice to a woman.
Good Guys™ are also the only group of people who unironically whinge about the friend zone.166 Reply- +1 y

+1 yThey are more interested in "fixing" a bad guy than settle with a good one, you can't fix someone who likes to feel good about themselves by trying to straighten a dog's tail... it's pointless but as they want to stand on the moral highhorse by doing so, it seems quite ironic
That's why people who give dating advice or the guys who are PUA's get a lot of chicks but never admit that today's "good guy" characteristics are meant for tamed or "fixed" men (mostly married & henpecked guys)... if it ain't broke, why fix it?10 Reply
+1 yI shouldn't have to say this, but someone who says they're a "nice guy" isn't nice. That is usually the case.
Otherwise, personally, it's because I don't want to date them. I firmly believe a guy and a girl can just be friends, don't prove me wrong. So far I'm not.41 Reply- +1 y
True
+1 yWomen also want to feel like they “Won The Prize” and like challenges.
Men that are ready to engage and settle could be super boring...
I don’t know. I just feel like I don’t know how to fight for someone and specially because when you have to fight and prove yourself it’s just like damn. Can’t you just live me from who I am 😩😭🤷🏾♀️10 ReplyDo they? Perhaps, they recognise a ruse and want nothing to do with him? Niceguys, if you will.
It could also be she's a busy bee and doesn't want or doesn't have time for commitment?
.. and it could be the plain ol' he's just too boring.
Take your pick.20 Reply
+1 yI never get friend zoned do you know why? Because my intentions are always made clear the girl knows I'm into her she either reciprocates or I'm gone. To many guys have been demasculized and are becoming friends with women in attempts to not scare her off or there to much of a pussy now to take the truth that there going to get rejected.

Some guys cry? Lol.
What u are saying is u don't expect sex from guys?
It's not like guys girls choose to be with want anything you for more than sex. The guys u choose are mostlikely having sex with other girls. Only few people are consistently monogamous in the long term - +1 y
"To cry about something" is an expression I think it's not literal in some cases. And yes some men cry so what?
Anyways what I'm saying, is that some guys are kind with a girl only because they expect sex from them, and then complain that a girl only expects friendship with them. They were the first ones having certain expectations, they shouldn't complain when the other ends up expecting something different, that's ridiculous. I don't see the point with monogamy here. - +1 y
Ok, I thought actual crying. Only a fable minded guy would do that. It's just rejection. No one died lol.
The expectation of sex is shared by both men and women nice or not. There are guys who are just nice to people in general that want sex or relationship and still get friendzoned for being nice. Niceness is interpreted as weakness and boring to most women. - +1 y
Men can totally cry there's no problem with it. Being capable to accept and show emotions are actually great qualities.
Back to the point. Normally if you're all nice with someone because you expect sex or a relationship, you shouldn't be so bothered when the person doesn't comply that's all. I mean it's like you're nice to your friend just because you want to ask a favor, but they don't owe it to you, right? So you shoudln't complain if you don't get the favor in the end, and that your friend thought you were being genuinely nice.
Also being nice isn't boring to women. - +1 y
Guys shouldn't cry at things that are not worth cry for. I cried at a friend's funeral, I cried the time I lost my job and when I didn't know where help would come from and felt truly alone but crying over someone who doesn't care about me or want me is just weak. A man who cries over little things can not stand when he face real shit worth crying for
- +1 y
So I digressed, back to the point. I mean I'm nice to my friends because I love them. I do stuff for them because I appreciate them. Do I expect them to be there for me? Yes. That's what a good friend is.
No guy should expect a girl to sleep with him or get into a relationship with him because he is nice. That weak af.
But I've seen girls reject guys just because they are nice. Some even say "He is a great guy but he is just too nice (not 'too nice' but too nice). That's what is confusing.
I'm yet to meet a woman that has proven with action that niceness isn't boring - +1 y
I wouldn't respect anyone less for that. It's just laughable to me
- +1 y
I already called a guy "too nice" before. It doesn't mean literally too nice, it doesn't mean he needs to be a piece of shit. Personally, what I felt is that the guy acted like a bro. It didn't felt like he was trying to seduce, to flirt... I don't mean in the sexual way, but like, you know there's a special behavior you adopt when you want to get intimate with someone (both in the romantic and sexual way) And this guy just adopted the bro attitude... But even when you get the right behavior it doesn't always work and you should never blame it on the person, they have the right not to want to get involved with you.
- +1 y
Of course no one should blame another for rejecting them.
U had a good reason for not continuing with the guy but he wasn't too nice he just used the wrong approach. Dude unknowingly friendzoned himself before u even friendzoned him lol.
I know girls who cheated on their boyfriends because "he was too nice", girls who date a guy and he is a great partner and 3months in she everything is perfect but he just too nice she says. So I picked up a chick at a pool bar, my friend offered to walk with us, gave her directions and then we walked him back to his appartment then she said she would like to introduce her friend to him but she doesn't like nice guys. She said she can tell he is a nice guy. My friend seemed confuse lol. Her friend wants the opposite of a nice guy

+1 yBasically they dont seem tough i guess. I mean, there some guys I know in real life that considered themself as good guys (but actually just by mouth). Actually there's no good guys if they only admit themself as "good guys" . Sometimes we might think that we are good enough and the person that we seem as bad from eyes are actually better than us

+1 yWell good guys just give off that friendly vibe. Plus a lot, if not all girls love adrenaline rushes and most 'good guys' don't give them that. But I don't know much, I wish as much as the rest of you that I didn't friend zone all the good ones.

+1 yIf I may be so bold. . . I think men have to find a way to accept, that maybe all women are not that virtuous.
If you are truly a good guy and you have been friendzoned. . . maybe that's a good thing. Move on, find a better more honest person.14 Reply- +1 y
It's not about virtue or honesty. It's about preferences. If she's not into you romantically, but likes you as a person, she's not going to date you. Simple as that. Doesn't make her a skanky liar.
- +1 y
@shelbyturtles Whatever the situation is, the guy needs to move on. Being in the friendzone is a horrible experience for men and women.
Most guys stay in the zone, thinking that one day the woman is going to see the "goodness" in them. And that day will never ever come.
I am going to create my own take about all these young guys who feel they are stuck in the friend zone.
By the way, it isn't a horrible thing for women to be as shallow as men.

Tbh, all of this good guy/bad guy nonsense is part of why I stopped dating men 😂 believe it or not, women are 100% easier to date

No lie, a lot of "good guys" are rude and condescending.

+1 yWomen don't want a nice guy. They say they do but they don't. Usually being overly nice makes it seem like you would be the first to back down in a confrontation. What woman would want that kind of guy for a long term partner?
20 ReplyBecause 99% of people think they are good guys. No one does things that they view as wrong, every man is right in his own mind. So people get friend zoned and every one of them views themselves as a good guy.

10 ReplyJust to keep them around if she ever needs anything from him. Be it attention, validation, or some sort of help with a task. "Good" guys don't always turn a woman on, so at that point, the guy is more of a utility
