    If a guy gets friend zoned and didn't want to then he deserves what he gets. I actually think more guys need to learn how to use the friend zone to there advantage. One of the best ways to meet women is to have other women around you.

    It's only bad if one person has the feelings and the other person takes advantage of it. In order for friendship with females to work, both need to be on the same page.

    It's a weird concept. The men who complain about it act like they have no choice. But it takes two to be in the friend zone. If you don't want to be her friend, just don't. No one's forcing you.

    It sucks when you have romantic feelings for someone that aren’t returned. That’s why the “friend zone” sucks so much. It’s not all about sex.

    Just settle the things if the guy is capable of maintaining a respectful friendship then all is done if not then you can ditch him but presenting yourself as a victim because he fell in love with you is laughable and immature.

      Hmm ok , i will make it clear , i agree i can be wrong grammatically but it's still easy enough to understand though

      Anyways what I meant was the term "i love you too , but as a friend" was coined by girls as they are the once that say it more often

      Giving an example how women friend zone guys when proposed.

      But when I responded saying that i was blamed to be a women hater.

      So i said it's a bit concerning that i was judged for having a different response and called a women hater just for responding with an example.

      But she has the freedom to say anything and women can say anything

      I do see the mistake that i wrote "i donot hate then " instead i donot hate them , them being referred to women

      Sorry my hands are tipsy @Melanin_royalty apologies my bad i misunderstood

    It really depends on the situation. I have several women friends with no other than truly friendly affection for each other.
    And the friendly zone can be as bad an experience for women in the reverse situation.

    The friend zone isn't a bad place to be assuming that you actually are friends. It's better to have a friend sometimes than to have a sex partner that you have a lot of trouble with.

      @Juxtapose Can't answer that for you. Do you view men the same way as you view women? Because straight people don't, even if they say they do. They will always size one another up as potential sexual partners, and you only put those people into two categories: yes or no.
