Do you think that women can be friend zoned?

Question

youngmix · Accepted Answer

Yes. I've seen it many times. A couple of times, it was super embarrassing for the girl/woman, but usually it's not bad. It only got embarrassing for people who assumed that a guy wanted them, so they were super promiscuous with a guy, and got rejected in front of a large group of people. I've seen that happen to one girl, and two women.

The women were super gross about it too. I saw a woman I party with literally tell one of our guy friends that she would "take you to the room over there and suck on you for a couple hours. Then we can fuck all night". End quote. She said this in front of about 30 people.

She was pregaming before that, but she wasn't that gone, and she said this immediately when he entered the party, and the party started about 15 minutes before that. So it was super early.

He was like "WTF, I just got here. Nah, I'm cool." He's a funny ass dude, and he's a super solid person. He's also very hot, and this kind of thing has actually happened to him more than once. LOL. She had a hate rage face the entire night.

It took her a while to get over it, but she was cool with him again after about a month.

I can confirm women can be friendzoned. It's happened to me SEVERAL times-

... actually I've been friendzoned, brotherzoned, and even gayzoned- don't ask me how the latter happened.
But contrary to what most men believe, not only do some women ask out and approach guys, but yes, we can be rejected and friendzoned- shocking I know!

It used to hurt, but as I got older, it doesn't phase me as much. It just means a guy only sees you as a friend or isn't attracted to you in a romantic way.

Yes. A girl that I later went on to have a thing for actually I put in the friend zone at first. I was into a friend of hers, and she came on to me. She was hot but I was honest about how I felt.

Said we can be friends. She said okay and basically laid in wait for an opportunity. I saw her turn down at least three guys in hopes that I would change my mind.

What did happen but only after I got with her friend, had a whole relationship with her friend. Broke up with the friend. And several months after mourning the relationship did I come around.

She was talking to a new guy by the time I was ready. And she ended up dumping that guy before they got started for me because I was ready. Kinda fucked up but that's College I guess

Of course they can.
Most men only just want to have *sex* with their female friends, that doesn't mean they are interested in her in more than the sexual way (a point men have collectively been trying to get across forever).

In fact, I would say women are significantly MORE likely to get friendzoned by a man.
Since if a man was interested in a female friend he is, realistically, going to make a move sooner than the average woman would towards a man.

Of course, if you count someone you would have sex with as NOT in the friend zone, well that's much more complicated of an answer.
I never had a female friend I wouldn't have sex with.

Kaamraj · Answer

A relationship is an exchange between the male's resource provisioning and commitment and the female's sexual and reproductive exclusivity. So a female being in the friendzone means she's getting all the commitment and none of the sexual access. This is a very rare position for a female to be in, as men are mostly very liberal with sex. What is far more common is for them to be in a "**** buddy" situation where they are getting all of the sex and none of the commitment. That is the true analogue of the friendzone as it applies to males.

Citizenkirk · Answer

You make it sound like something that you do too her, than with her. Like putting someone in the penalty box of a hockey game.
If your platonic friend is female, and the two of you have sexual intercourse without the romance, than she is your friends with benefits.

shepardmaddison · Answer

Anyone can be friendzoned. Women too, but less usually and it's specially focused during high school in my opinion. If girls weren't specially cute or thick, they were the biggest victims of friend zones... So basically anyone can be friendzoned based in their appearance mainly

ShaTTeredMasterpeace · Answer

Despite what majority of men seem to think, a lot of women get friendzoned. We just don't throw a fit and become men haters because of it.

lilyanony1 · Answer

Yes... Just because men say they find it hard to find a woman to have sex with doesn't mean that anyone and every woman that comes along is one they will hang on to forever.

BipBipLeddus · Answer

Absolutely. I personally know TWO girls that constantly complain about being stuck in the friendzone.

AydenHazor · Answer

I still think the friend zone of a load of bull. If you're asking if a woman can pretend to be a friend with a dude to try to get in a guy's pants only to be turned down and upset about it, yes, but she's less likely to be because in our society men are more likely to pull that shit

godfatherfan · Answer

Not in the same way men are friend zoned. We keep women in the "friend zone" in hopes that if either of us are single at some point, there could be something there.

Lionman95 · Answer

Yes I think they can be equally friendzoned they just make less a fuss about it. While men tend to tell everybody willing to listen that they are friendzoned by women all the time women handle the situation in a more quiet way.

ManOnFire · Answer

If you have to ask, or don't think it happens, it's because you must think all women will successfully be able to have sex or relationships with most men they know/meet.

melanieeeB · Answer

Yeah of course but I don't think that most women stay there, like some guys do.  I got friendzoned a few times but after that the friendships ended

Anonymous · Answer

Possible. But much less likely. It's a problem characterized by the female brain guys don't operate in the same way so it's unlikely a woman would encounter the same problem. It might be more common among lesbians but I'm not sure. I think it could be the case that the phenomenon is somewhat limited to women's perception of men.

VIVANT · Answer

Of course. Being friend zoned is just being into someone who just wants to be friends. Can happen to anyone.

Anonymous · Answer

Of course. Men and women both like to "date up". That means playing a little out of your league. Most guys are down for friends with benefits for the sex but yeah, you miss a lot of pitches when you're "reaching".

ArchivalMars2 · Answer

Yes it can happen, done it a few times myself felt really bad because they were all girls that I never noticed.

lucas262 · Answer

Yup.

Was the 1 girl at my work. I knew I wouldn't date a co worker so I never made it happen.

Tbh even if I found a good option to date, my definition of dating is much more akin to a friendship by today's standards.

Luopio27 · Answer

There is more than 7 billion people on the plane. So its safe to say, some women get friendzoned everyday.

And yes, out of those who do, some of them even remain friends in the miracle hopes for a second chance, with the man.

AncientWisdom · Answer

Yes … I’ve done it myself many times. Some are okay with it some get very angry.

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

Yep without doubt, both guys and girls can be, although I hate the term.

CallmeTheKnight · Answer

Yes they can. I friendzone plenty of women over the past two years. For me, once I see that they're nothing more than a friend, it can't go further than that because there's no sexual attraction.

Kiran_Yagami · Answer

Women get friendzoned all the time. Men of quality are rare, so the number of women interested in them is uncharacteristically high. Lots of those women are going to wind up in the friend zone, or at best the "smash and dash" zone.

Levin · Answer

Course. I do it all the time. Even when the women thinks she had power over you, often she doesn't.

Aakash_Hangargi · Answer

It sure does happens but it's like rare occurrence like solar eclipse

exitseven · Answer

Yes, I had a friend that I think wanted it t be something more but I already had a girlfriend and just did not think of her like that.

mark000h · Answer

Yes, it's just as bad for a guy to do that knowing a girl has feelings that he doesn't.

TheBigGuy9 · Answer

Of course they can. In fact, I have a few of those right now and especially if she is married or in a relationship. She’s definitely getting friend zoned.

dolemite89 · Answer

Sure they can but i don’t think they try to “friendship” their way into hopefully changing a guys mind like guys sometimes try to do when they’ve been friendzoned. If a girl knows that a guy isn’t attracted to them they move on

TwistedSukuna · Answer

Definitely possible but tends to be rarer than the other way around from what I've seen

RealMarek · Answer

I think it is possible, but perhaps rarer than men getting friendzoned.

Jintendo18 · Answer

Yeah, and they’ll do the same thing as guys do when getting friend zoned and try to inch their way to something more.

Tstrbrainer · Answer

It could happen, but it is extremely rare and probably women who experience are the ones who were attracted to guys who probably had plenty of better options.

Lovesims3plumbob · Answer

Yes, I been friendzone more then once. only after the guy change a mind only when i made a mistake.

myabe123 · Answer

I’ve never been friend zoned... but I have been hoezoned... it’s just as bad if not worse.

awkward_author · Answer

I'm sure women can be friend-zoned. I've never experienced it, but I'm sure it happens.

FinalFantasyBro · Answer

Yes they could risk being friend zone the same could be said with men.

scooogy · Answer

Tired me took a few seconds to realize that the right hand was forming the one half of a heart 🤣 Does asexual attraction count as friendzoned?

Shy_Steve · Answer

Of course they can, It is just more common for a Guy to be friendzoned. I think it might be just because Girls are less likely to approach a Guy.

Anonymous · Answer

Yep.  She: "Will I ever get out of your friendzone?" Me: "There's no such thing as a friendzone" (She's never going to be anything more than a friend to me)

SolitaryGuy · Answer

Yes, especially when a guy isn't attracted to her but knows that she is attracted to him, so yeah...

fzb88 · Answer

hell yeah because I am but I am OK with it because I feel comfortable talking to boys like friends

Mediterraneansoul · Answer

No. I don't think so. It seems to always be either the case of intimate relationship or nice to meet you but I'll keep my distance

cookiecrusher · Answer

Sure unattractive women tend to get that a lot, or women why approach good looking dudes.

Anonymous · Answer

I believe woman can also be friendzoned just like us.

Anonymous · Answer

Doesn't seem possible because women typically are the ones that don't have to initiate or pursue or ask a guy out
