Search Results: the friend zone

I suspect that a guy that one of my friends knows will ask me out soon. I don’t like him in a romantic way but he seems like a good person. He is also kinda shy like he hasn’t talked to me yet. I am asking this to ensure I handle this right, thank you! :)

My boyfriend (26 yo) and I are in a long distance relationship with different time zones. We FaceTime each other everyday, while cooking, watching movies, working and everything and can spend hours talking. But sometimes we’re talking and he’ll just go and start playing games online with his friends, putting his headphone and we’re still on FaceTime and it’s okay I think when I’m also busy doing something else but today he started to play without even telling me and I was watching him for a few minutes and told him I’ll call him back when I’m done with my friend. He sent me a message telling me he’s playing game with his friend online so I told him okay text me when you’re done and he said yes. But I feel mad about it, we don’t have all the time we want to talk specially during the week because of our work so in the Saturday we should be more available? I know he also want his free time playing but I would rather him telling me okay I’m going to play with my friend for some time I’ll call you back after than just starting to play randomly when I’m just doing nothing but talk to him. I wanted to go out today but since he was sick I decided to stay home and talk to him. He’s always the one calling me and everything so I don’t force anything. Am I wrong? Should I say something? 😅

Which zone do you think it's the worst one?

The friendzone; you'll always been seen as a platonic friend by that person or others. It'll never progress to dating. No romantic interest.

The fuck zone; it's usually where the girl develops an interest and feelings for someone that only sees her as someone to have fun with but will never ask her nor progress to something serious beyond just sex. No relationship interest.

The forever girlfriend zone; yeah she's in a relationship but he'll never propose nor have kids with her. She's hopelessly waiting for it but it'll never happen. He's just a girlfriend to enjoy for the meantime but he'll always have one foot out the door.
