Is the friend zone the end?

[Lynnzee]

Has anyone ever been friend zoned and they found the way back into a relationship, in love. Or is the friend zoned the beginning of the end of what you once hoped for?

[genericname85]

depends. for one: do you even know as a fact if you are in the friendzone? or are you just assuming?

When things started we were getting to know each other for potential relationship. After about 6 months it slowed down and remained casual. We've way been in contact with each other not always taking much but sometimes. Lately we've have spent some more time together and a some entanglements. He recently introduced me to some people as his friend then he said a really good friend. I guess friend wasn't what I wanted to hear but I guess it's accurate

[genericname85]

that was a very very long winded way to say "i don't actually know".

[Lynnzee]

Thanks I tried hard for that

[genericname85]

xD of course he introduces you as a friend. wouldn't it be weird to introduce you as your girlfriend when he didn't even ask you to be in a relationship? he not having asked you yet doesn't mean that the possibility that he wants that is ruled out.

Persons that become partners in a good relationship often start out as good friends.

Navigating the murky waters of the friend zone can feel like you're stuck in relationship limbo, right? Believe it or not, friend zone isn't always a dead end; sometimes, it's just a detour. It's not unheard of for people to climb their way out and into the heart of their crush. The secret sauce? Transforming yourself from friend to flame involves showing a side of you they've never seen before, spicing up your interactions, and maybe hitting the reset button on how they view you. Changing the dynamics can reignite or spark new interest. But there’s a catch – it's crucial to respect their feelings. If they're not vibing with the shift, it might be time to embrace the friend zone as a final destination. Love sometimes takes the scenic route! 🌹💫

Friend zone isn't an end... It's the offer for a friendship.

I've been friend zoned numerous times, and my response to this is always the same -- I try to negotiate/arrange to serve her in a more practical, utilitarian manner. In fact, if she's someone I really have my heart set on, I may even inquire as to the feasibility of doing some chores, tasks, etc on the very first date.

'I believe that most of the homes on that block have front and back yards -- if you need the lawn mowed, I can show up an hour or two early, and get that done for you, before we go to dinner ', etc.

Best to move on. It's possible for friends to develop into a romantic relationship. But if the other person has already considered that and decided it's "just friends" it's extremely unlikely for that to change.

Hanging onto something that's not going to happen is just wasting your time and emotions. You could be using that time to find someone else.

Family zone is the end 🙄😂 but no, sometimes, some people break through it and blossoms into romance if there’s attractions and potentials. It can be hard to break out as it can be the dead end of the road to romance 😅 lol. But there’s always a small possibility to be more~
Relationships does also requires companionships.

No just dating a girl that saw me just as friend and likewise at the beginning

[Anonymous]

As far as I'm concerned. If I have to convince a woman I'm worth her time then she's not smart enough for me to date. Why would I want to waste my time with her? I'm much rather be with a woman he recognizes my worth.

In my opinion women should take the same attitude. Why waste your time with a guy who doesn't see your value.

The friend zone is certainly the end of the beginning and the beginning of the end.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Once your in the friend zone that's it. I'm sorry but I have to be honest

[LiamJHayden]

It can happen, but the vast majority of the time once someone considers you as "just a friend" that is where it remains.

[In_Trance]

If you thought of someone as a friend, what would they possibly do?

[KrakenAttackin]

For men its usually the end.
