Why do girls call guys who are into them "bro"?

[Anonymous]

The girl I am into just called me bro when I asked her if she's okay. I had a feeling that there was something off about her so I asked her if everything is okay. She said "yo bro". That too after knowing how I feel about her.


Why the fuck do girls call bro?

[WanderingLoveWizard]

It doesn't necessarily mean she's "friendzoning" you. Some girls are just like that. If a girl grew up as a tomboy, then she's used to feeling like one of the dudes and never quite learned that we fucking hate that lol.
I knew a girl who was very into me, but still insisted on calling me "buddy" "friend" "dude" and "partner". She thought she was being slick.

Or it could mean that she's setting a boundary with you, and is indeed sticking you in the friendzone lol

It depends on the girl

My best guess is it's a mannerism she picked up from other people she hangs or has hanged around.

I don't think I've ever heard a woman call a man "bro."

[DizzyDesii]

I say “man” or “dude” or “bra” or which is the same thing but spelled different 😂 Normally i start or end a sentence with “bra” when im snapping at the guy or snapping about someone else. But i refer to everyone (man or woman) as man/dude/bra. Now if i was to say “boy” Or “girl” then i’d only be referring to a boy or girl as that. I have to be really pissed at someone to not call my dude “babe”.

[DizzyDesii]

Even when i’m telling my mom about my day, i say “Maaan, Ma guess what happened today.” And she constantly reminds me that her name is not Man Ma, but ima say it anyways

[DizzyDesii]

In other words, she might still be into you. She prob just tomboyish

[Asker]

She has never said bro before though and we have been talking for a long time.

[DizzyDesii]

Whats the full sentence she said when she said it? Sometimes i’d say to my dude “dude you craaaazy”. there's some other shit i’d call the guy too but i ain't bout to put that out therr 😂

[Asker]

I felt that she was a bit off so I asked her if she's okay. She responded by saying "yo bro everything's good".

[DizzyDesii]

Oh that doesn't sound like she's directing it at you specifically. I’d say something like that if something was bothering me. Maybe you or someone else is bothering her. Like how i stated above that i say Bra when somethings pissed me off. Has she said bro again ever since?

[Asker]

I didn't texted her after that incident.

[DizzyDesii]

Lmao how king has it been since the incident? Hours? Days?

[Asker]

Days

[DizzyDesii]

I mean you can reach at least once more. But if she brushes you off again, definitely move on. When i’m into a guy, we talk everyday at least a few times a day. Skipping days would mean im not romantically into him. I will go almost a year without talking to someone that i’m not interested in

[Asker]

I'll talk to her on the weekend in that case. Thank you Desi.

[DizzyDesii]

Anytime

No it doesn’t automatically put you in the friend zone it’s just what some people are used to calling others. I know I’ve called everyone of my friends bro at least once, don’t look into it to much. But since you added that she knows your into her and she hasn’t pursued a relationship with you then probably yeah your in the friend zone and most likely will stay there.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

Sometimes it's a way to refer to guy friends or guys they're close to. I wouldn't think about it too much though. Whether she's into you romantically or not is a different question all together.

[Sour-rose]

Just means the friendly version of..."a close friend". One that can be trusted. Hell, it's like sayin' "Buddy" or some shi like that

[Asker]

Did she call me bro in the same way?

[Sour-rose]

Yes? I had a co-worker who said the same to me and she was... also a she

[ShadezMcgee]

Girls that call you bro do not see you as any more than a friend. You are in the friend zone. If you are a bri, you ain't fucking

[Guy13]

To make certain the needy guy knows that the girl is not into him romantically

[Luopio27]

I agree.

[TheSpaceGnome]

The first thing this reminded me of was that girl on youtube who was like "step broooooo, I'm stuuuuck." while her ass is in the washing machine for some stupid reason. 😂

[D_Bone_Steak]

Bro.
It's okay bro.
Just chill bro.

lolz bro. It's just a prank bro.

[Vcent]

I have no idea. I call literally everybody I know “mannen” (The man). We all have our weird habits

[Guccigabbana18]

I do that when I'm not into him in return and trying to let him know that.

[hypojoe]

Even weirder during sex that shit will kill a boner quick

[KrakenAttackin]

To tell you your seat is firmly in the friend zone.

[Leko2k01]

It means that the girl is probably into you very much but not in boyfriend and girlfriend kind of way but more as a brother and someone that they would like to keep close

[Anonymous]

They're confused. Women who use the word "bro" are quasi-women. Basically they're guys with a female anatomy.

[boggboss]

Shows she ain't into you

[HappyWoman34]

Maybe she’s friendzoning you.

[Anonymous]

I have never called anyone that.
