only thing is you're putting women in here as if they like a guy or dont like him based on HIS intentions. if i meet a GUYT IM INTERESTED IN AND HEW ACTS LIKE A FRIEND ILL CONTINUE GETTING TO KNOW HIM TILL IM SURE there's INTEREST OR NOT. AND IF NOT ILL JUST BE A FRIEND. I DONT LIKE A GUY BC HE HAS DECIDED he's INTERESTED. sorry caps unintentional.
i agree with you that if he doesn't say he's interested she won't know. but that doesn't mean sales not interested herself.
If they are clearly NOT interested ( applies to everyone !! ) , then simply cease contact & move the fuck on & get on with your life , I've never been in the " Zone " as my self respect would not allow this situation to develop... Guys , let's be honest , we are NOT attracted to every woman , therefore WE will not be attractive to all women , just be real here !!
I agree with this take a lot. My girlfriend, before we were going out, was persued by this guy who she wasn't into at all. When he made a pass at him she rejected him nicely and he said "oh well, i guess the nice guy never gets the girl." He then proceeded to spread rumours that she led him on which upset her greatly.
I think claiming that you got friendzoned is weak. Its making an excuse and trying to turn yourself into a victim. My advice is just suck it in and move on.
It's funny one time I was talking to one of my friends at the bar who is attractive and one of my other friends came up and said dude, she has a boyfriend. and I'm like ok well I was just talking to her as a friend lol. Why do some people act like the only reason you should talk to an attractive member of the opposite sex is for dating and sex. That's rather shallow.
Besides having female friends can only help your chances with talking to women and meeting others.

Anyways, it's not ENTIRELY true. You can be in the friendzone and not be an asshole. I've loved a friend for a couple years, but I'm just not attractive to her. Don't have that get up and take control personality. That's not her fault though, and I don't blame anyone, not even myself as it's not really my fault for having a certain personality type. I'm a nice guy in the friendzone, but I'm not a "NICEGUY".

But that isn't the friendzone, that's just plain not liking someone.
We're friends and care about each other, but she has no romantic feelings for me. That's the friendzone is it not? What IS the friendzone besides that?
There is no friendzone. The concept of the friendzone is that it is an inescapable place that someone is put it when they don't reach a certain standard. You two are just friends.
But it wasn't a lie. They were the ones that expressed interest in me by staring for long periods and going out their way to start conversation when I didn't even know them yet. After we started hanging out that's when they said it "I kind of like you and I think you're cool but.. You're just too nice."
There's just no way that she dropped it cuz someone was nice, just zero chance. Could be you weren't assertive enough, could be you came on to strong, could be she didn't relate to you on so many other levels. But too nice? I don't think so. The only time a girl will honestly say you're too nice, is because there's something about the two of you she's unsure of and is afraid of being the one to hurt you in such a way that it damages you, but being nice alone is not ever going to get someone rejected.
I don't believe that, I feel like any time that is said its covering something else. No girl has ever hated that a guy opens doors for her or tells her he loves her. That's just backwards.
@Damiandash312 we never started dating we went to the same college and were on campus hanging out. We were talking and then she told me Ives's too nice. I'm no doormat but I do treat women I'm interested in nice and good and always make sure I never sound desperate or creepy with constant texts or begging etc. And @StephanieSpoiler Bish I smell fabulous lol
@StephanieSpoiler You're one of my best friends... But I hate you Steph, know this comes from the bottom of my heart <3
lol the girl I'm talking too right now says I'm too nice as part of her flirting, but she's still going out with me :P Maybe you just shoulda pushed a little harder :)
Actually, some girls intentionally lead you on and don't want to date you, yet at the same time, don't want you to date anyone else. This is a thing. Friendzone definitely exists.

I did make mention that there ARE women who string guys along, but they weren't the focus of this article. I think the friendzone is bullshit nonetheless because she STILL had no interest in you, she lead you along for an ego boost. People should really stop treating dating like a game or sport.
Basically, nice guys = beta bitches. Women want a good man, not a nice guy.

This Is Awesome! You have explained this misconception so clearly, I hope guys are taking notes :)
It's simple: they change the terms of their relationship. You can be friends with someone and then date them, but you have to be sure to make your interest known. It's super tricky, but I find it works with people you haven't been friends with for years.

Nice guy, friendzone etc. are excuses. At the end of the day, the guy who is good-looking and/or rich gets the girl.

Yes that's the classic nice guy.

well come back to me when you get turned down more than once and their literal words were "you're too nice"
Lol news flash they're lying to make you feel better, it's just a shitty lie.

@Damiandash312 is right.
Nah mate it happens. @Damiandash312
I don't believe that, I feel like any time that is said its covering something else. No girl has ever hated that a guy opens doors for her or tells her he loves her. That's just backwards.
It's true EVERYTIME I turned down Damian it's cuz he smelled bad π

Lol good for you give my buddy some cologne :D
Cologne makes you smell worse if you smell bad already Hahaha @StephanieSpoiler
Oh... Welp damn @Damiandash312 looks like that's it for your love life π©
Word to the wise, don't tell your roommate about this site if you don't want reasons to kill her :D

This is a great video. Hopefully the women will watch this.
The "Please be my waifu" line had me laughing, I'm so going to use that IRL. Also, the article was spot on.
I'm glad you liked it. :D
Yea nice comics and for the parts I read I agree...
Well I'm glad you enjoyed at least some of it. :)
If the guy is "so nice" whys he going after a girl in a relationship?
Omg I wrote that without reading the whole thing amazing fucking take!!! Thank you for Getting It! ππ
The take is wrong.
I make it simple. Go for it. If it fails I don't see them again. 3 billion left to know

You forgot this comic :)
I wonder how my friend does it, he usually has girls start out as friends and they fall for him. Any insight to this?
He is obviously attractive. That's all there is to it. Tbh, that's all there ever is to it.

I just came for the toons
