Does anyone else ever think about the little mirror flying through space with General Zod banging on the window (The Phantom Zone) when they hear the word friend zone?

"Nice guys finish last" is a myth.

And people getting butthurt over being friendzoned need to grow up. I was friendzoned many times...you just say "meh" and move on.

Like you never got butthurt over it.

ridin' on a bus

Very true (though the whole bus thing wasn't really a friendzone situation, just an unrequited love thing)....but what did getting butthurt ever solve? I was way more unhappy when I was hating women for friendzoning then when I just got over it.

I guess I just grew up is the point. And some level you have to stop blaming women for friendzoning nice guys and acknowledge that women who don't think you're awesome (when you are), are just not worth the effort or time. It's their loss. You move on.

Women who friend-zone and keep going for douchebags are just idiots (and products of our culture), so, "meh" fuck them...not worth your time.

Real women who will recognize you for your best qualities are out there.



The internet is just full of too many butthurt forever alone types who want to blame women/"being too nice" for all of their problems. At some point you need to have self respect, dust yourself off, and say "okay, your loss" and find a woman who will appreciate you.

Confirm. Or not even necessarily "their loss" just realize they're not into you and find someone who is.

Friendzoned - so what do you do stay friends with that person or sever all ties?

First you try to acquire the benefits package.

Ha, this.


But yeah, of the major "friendzone" situations I've been in, i'd say 70% ended up just having ties severed naturally (either she couldn't handle the awkwardness or i couldn't). But 30% of my "friendzone" situations actually turned out just fine. Contrary to popular belief...you CAN get over someone and still have them in your life.

I don't mind anyone bitching about the types that can't accept someone isn't into them and won't move on, but there's the other side of the friendzone. The side where the person who holds all the cards takes advantage of the person who is interested in them. You have to be a pretty shitty person to string someone along knowing what they want and never intending to let them have it so you can have all the benefits of a significant other without any of the responsibilities or obligations that come along with it.

Personally, I just went through a semi-friendzoney thing, and I quit talking to the person (though I have no idea how you can friendzone someone after you've slept with them...some people need to read the rules before they try this shit). It wasn't long before unanswered messages were followed up with messages telling me what a shit I was for not wanting to be "friends." I have enough friends, thanks. That's the other thing I really don't like about the "friendzone" bullshit: the chick can put all the limits on the relationship she wants but the minute the guy does the same thing in response he's somehow an asshole. Fuck that.

So, if I have many female friends, and I am a Male, and the goal of our relationship was friendship and not "luv" or "secks" does it mean i've been friendzoned many times?

pretty much that.

the thing that irritates me about the friend zone is that most of the girls who abuse that shit are ONLY worth having around for bedroom activities anyway. I don't get mad about being friends with women worth being friends with.

No. Friendzone only applies when 1 person wants something "more than friends" and the other person says "no we're just friends" If it's a mutual "we're good friends" then there is no "zoning"

Some argue that plutonic friendships between men and women are an impossibility. Others argue that men who are "friends" with women always want more, albeit secretly and they themselves may not know.

I tend to think this is horseshit - you can be friends with a woman without wanting to fuck her. That said, I bet, if the opportunity arose, and there wouldn't be any awkwardness, and it would be totally cool, no negative remifications...you'd bang many of your female friends. That's true with me - for sure.




Funny, you know guys abuse the friendzone in a different way? I know there are guys who have zero interest in being anything more than friends with a woman, but she'll be head over heels for them. And they'll bang her and bang her and never once let her out of the friendzone. For her part, she's desperate to get out of the friendzone and thinks each time they bang it might get her out of it. Alas...it will never happen. That's the female version of the friendzone. Basically, you don't get laid if you're a male getting friendzoned...if you are a woman, he still might bang you.




I think you're taking specific examples of stupid bitches and applying it to all women again. This does not hold universally true. Also, stop associating with terrible women (as you've done with this one). You can do better, I know you can.
