Search Results: getting out of the friend zone

Is it the wise thing to do to leave the relationship after being friendzoned? Especially when she will never reconsider.

By leaving the friendship, do you see the action as immature?


How would you go about getting out of the friend zone? Thanks!

Hello. I like this person's energy and I believe it's a mutual attraction, however, it seems like she isn't exactly ready for a relationship at this time. This idea is reinforced by her close friend who has told me that "she isn't ready, but doesn't want to lose you". There was recently a window of opportunity to ask her out according to her friend, but it was short and I guess her anxiety made her question it and back away.

After getting to know her more, it seems that she has a lot more baggage than I imagined. It doesn't really bother me, but I indirectly confessed to her when we were out with her friend one night, so she knows for sure that I am interested. And, if I am not mistaken, attraction peaks quickly and descends over time.

So, I already kind of confessed to her and continue to compliment her when necessary, but I don't want to risk being friend-zoned if I wait too long. But, theoretically, if I wait a while, she should be more "ready" emotionally because with time emotions (hopefully) heal. Also, I don't think I can play the waiting game either because I, too, will probably move on or grow bitter. Another worry is that her availability will attract other gentlemen who may ask her before me.

So, her heart is already closed which leaves me this challenge. I recognize that she has anxiety and stress, and I do not have all the answers but I don't know, I still want to try. My texting game isn't that strong either, but I try to cheer her on whenever I can.

Ladies, emotionally, do you think I have a chance? How could I support her and not friend-zone myself? I really don't know how your emotions work yet, and maybe I never will. But, can you please offer me some of your insight?

Gentlemen, have you tried or heard of similar stories and how have you/they overcome this challenge?

Thank you.

If you ask me, I would say it's the women's fault.

All the "nice guys" kept getting friend zoned by all the girls, and then they realized that they wanted someone who was as hard to get as them, and didn't care at all for women.

So they adapted, and became the Fuck boys we come to know today.

Now that they are what the women wanted, they started getting more of them, and now it's become regular for a girl to be screwed over in the end, and now all of a sudden they don't want a fuckboy, they want someone who can commit, and they say that "they don't come around anymore, they're too hard to find".

In my opinion, they made them, they got what they wanted, and they realized what they had was much better too late.



That's just my opinion, I want to hear yours, and if there might be a solution to this problem before it is normalized everywhere
