The friend zone exists. It's simply a low, fragile line. Becoming friends is just fine. Being best friends is rather risky. Being bff is nearly impossible. Friendship is risky sometimes, but it is possible!
I seen a post before about a girl saying she leaves guys on the friendzone. So when she breaks up with that guy she can then date a friendzoned guy she even said women are players. But most likely just a bad egg
Nah most women are players, but can't take their own medicine.
So when they get played by men they call all men assholes and cry. Most women chat up multiple guys and then pick the best one the lot to go out with. She will quickly drop a guy who she was warm/interest in and act like he means nothing to him if a "better" guy comes along. Hence, why so many men complain about girl their talking to going no contact.
Women also like ego boost of being wanted so they often flirt, and pretend to show interest in multiple guys to not only use them as a service commodity but to get an ego boost for them liking their shit on social media, and telling them their attractive everyday.
@Roostah this is true my ex swear to God she wanted to marry me even said she wanted to have my kids which freak me out at first but guest what? Her parents forced us apart she cried for weeks but as soon as arich Boy come along.. I was treated like shit and blames for everything. Even through I was the one who helped her get through the forces break up... so your right.
Um you just got that off of google. The exact sentence is actually from www.oxforddictionaries.com/.../friend-zone . The site on the other hand is made by people albeit with an encyclopedic knowledge of the meaning of words. The term friend zone however was popularized by the tv show "Friends' and later hit mainstream media after the release of the aforementioned movie "Just Friends" and that's where the meaning of the term actually comes from. So you're basically taking the meaning of the word from a movie. And as I already explained in my take it is impossible for a man and a woman to remain friends after being rejected by the other one. So your argument is invalid. Also "religiously stupid" is not a proper term.
My argument is invalid for the reasons mentioned, and religiously stupid meaning stupid as many religiously stupid peoples claims. When you say "The Friendzone doesn't exist" it sounds like a religious claim, in the sense 'you believe' therefore it is true for everybody. Your headline leave no room for arguments or doubt, hence why is sounds like when religious people making faith based claims.
Um, I have two female friends... one of which has been one my best friends for a decade. No one has ever made any moves on the other. And we are both fairly attractive in general. I can't stand when people say opposite gender friendships don't exist, simply because they never had one...
Now I don't feel sorry for people who are in the friend zone, because they choose to be there. But all the friend zone is pretty much a guy or girl knows the other person has feelings and will either try to put them in the friend "box" by outright saying things like, "You're like a brother to me" or "I'm glad I can talk to you about things and not worry about you hitting on me" as a way to stop them from trying while still selfishly holding onto that person for the "friendship". The friend zone is not a friendship. It's one person pining for another and settling for what they can get and hoping one day there will be more. I don't see why so many girls want to say the friend zone doesn't exist, when it does. But it takes two people to set that foundation up.
Me, if I was interested in a girl I made it known. If she passively tried to say things "you're like my brother" I passively disappeared from her life. I was open about what I want, while she didn't have the courage to do the same
Nah it exists, in short girls really love rejecting and guys

My ex broke up with me and said we should be friends.. even with that I didn't feel friend zoned... I do worry if she genuinely wants to be friends.. or if she said that just to let me down easy... but to be fair to her.. she has said it multiple times after the breakup

Lastly, its been reported 70% of women cheat on their boyfriend in a recent study.

@Roostah really?
Unrequited love exists
The friendzone is just a fancy term for unrequited love.
Thus, the "friendzone" exists.
nice mytake 😊 I never beloved in the word friendzone I didn't think that existed
I like how your entire take stands on the premise that a clear rejection happened.
Well that's kind of the point.
Well you're obviously missing it.
friend zone
"a situation in which a friendship exists between two people, one of whom has an unreciprocated romantic or sexual interest in the other."
It certainly does exist, it sound religiously stupid to say otherwise.

Somewhat proves my point that women and men can never be 'just friends' ;)
They can be, until one sleeps with the other.
@GreatnessPersonified lol well that means at least one of them was attracted to the other in the first place. So no, can't be just friends ;-)

I know that it exists, because I have a wonderful ranch style house built there that I live in.
I know a few girls who are in the friend zone that would disagree with you

Leading someone on is one version of the friendzone, but is more selfish because the person leading on the other is outright using them for something
Nah it exists, in short girls really love rejecting and guys

I disagree but still interesting read.. thank you :)
When will people get that the friend zone is not real. There is no being "just friends"
It's real but it doesn't have to be as bad as "nice guys/girls" make it out to be.
An amazing my take , and very good to know.
Thanks mosh :) Haven't heard from you in a while.
Someone is not aware of the male perspective cause this take is wrong
Whats a friendzone anyway? Whatever it is, I think compatibility is the ultimate deciding factor.
friendzone is just a belief... low self esteem she will never be your girlfriend - that is a friendzone.
who came up with this silly argument? I hope it wasn't the Riddler.
This is a two way street! doesn't just go for the guys!
