slut-shaming is how you vilify women* for exercising their right to say yes. friend-zoning is how you vilify women* for exercising their right to say no.

Just grow a pair, guys. If you have a romantic interest in a girl, ask her out. If she says no, and that bothers you, you never have to talk to her again.

Plus, nothing makes you more unattractive to other women than if you are constantly falling over your "friend" who obviously is not attracted to you.

I like how the farther down you go in these comments, the more butthurt/misogynist they get.

If you treat a woman like she is too good for you, she will believe you.

It also just popped up on my fb feed, my Reddit /all and a tumblr. Proving that all internet comedy is created by a creature who lives in the center of the earth.

Can we please stop with all these friend-zoning posts? If you are romantically interested in a girl and she doesn't feel the same way about you, just move on. There are plenty of other women out there.

Women ~~liking assholes~~ getting "led on" is bull because guys are not machines that you put sex into until ~~kindness~~ a relationship falls out.

Your sex fell out.

I absolutely agree. The mentality behind complaining about being friendzoned comes from expecting a girl to "pay up" with sex if you're good enough to her.

Sometimes, sexual attraction isn't mutual. It just isn't. It's not that she isn't seeing what a perfect guy you are...it's that she seriously just doesn't want to fuck you. Sorry. Try being nice without an ulterior motive next time and maybe you won't suffer such a crushing letdown.

Friendzone is generally bullshit. I am a guy who used to complain about being friendzoned. I realized that the friendzone does not exist and it was just me being a complete pussy. I am still just as nice as I was before, however, if I am interested I simply go for it. Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose. If I lose, I move on. It's that simple.

The vast majority of men friend-zone themselves. TRUTH POLICE

Highlighter_Freedom · 6 months

Just so we're clear: The mere phrase 'friend zone' does NOT imply anything about the girl except that she's not interested in fucking the person in the 'friend-zone.' People complaining about being friend-zoned can be legitimately disappointed about the situation in which they find themselves without thinking the girl has done anything wrong. I feel like some people on reddit are assuming that the phrase "friend zone" automatically implies some sort of twisted sense of entitlement. It doesn't. It just means someone wants to be more than friends, while their friend doesn't. That's it. Nothing more.

Even when someone complains that they've done lots of nice things and are still "stuck in the friend-zone," they're not saying that because they were nice they are 'owed' sex. They are simply lamenting the fact that their efforts to woo a girl were unsuccessful. And it's okay to be sad about that. Unrequited feelings can be tough. It doesn't imply twisted entitlement. Believe it or not, people can hope for things to which they are not entitled, and even feel sad when they don't get them. Humans are silly that way.

wiser words have never been spoken.

The sad truth is that no matter how sweetly you treat a girl, if she's not physically attracted to you...you're just her friend. Seems like loads of people don't realize that.

Time for my 2 cents!

Friend-zoning is the most sexist thing I have heard. It makes me so angry, because no girl "wants to go out with an asshole" ever. When you ask girls what they want in a guy they will Never say "I only date assholes" those are the guys we stay away from. We date the sort of guys (we believe) we can depend on, sometimes we can't & it backfires, sometimes the guy we think is nice & sweet & dependable is actually just after sex. Here is a secret for all you 'friend-zoned' guys. The 'assholes' we go out with, are either actually really nice guys, or they at least pretend to be in front of us. You may be just as nice or nicer, but the difference is simple. Either, they had the fucking balls to ask us out, or they are just better looking then you. That is just how it is. But always remember, a personality can completely swap a persons appearance. So therefore if you are super pretty & an asshole, then no, you won't get alot of good girls, you will only get scumbag stacy's.

Oh & one last thing. When was the last time your friend-zoned guys asked out the chubby chick with freckles? She is probably a really nice girl. But you only what the hot chick (or more correctly) who friend zoned you coz she is not into fat guys with freckles, but prefers her guys tanned & tall, & playing ice hockey.

TL;DR it's not that you aren't an asshole, it's because you are one.

anagrammaton · 6 months

I was friendzoned my whole life until I met my husband. The only guys who would have me before were abusive asswipes. The nice guys were too busy lamenting that Pretty Girl didn't want to go out with them. But they just weren't that into me. :/

TheOrangeIguana · 6 months

Girls only like assholes instead of us nice guys who don't shower.

mightbetrolling · 6 months

Yeah but I was at the bar last night talking with some of my lady friends and they talk about how they love putting guys in the friendzone because they get free attention and things from them. That is when I chugged my drink and left them to get drugged.

Problems like friend zoning have nothing to do with men vs. women. It has to do with individual vs. individual. Solution: don't be desperate.

Friend zone thing is bs and only happens to children. Man up and stop your whining because she doesn't like you. People die, cancer happens, and people don't need to fucking like you.

No... But saying shit like "I wish more guys were like you" and then not dating me is annoying as fuck..

I have no concern with all this friendzoning business. But in defense of the guys who have to deal with concept, I don't think friendzoning is just about sex. It's about intimacy and affection. Not all guys are looking for a quick handjob all the time.

Tetelesthai · 6 months

(I'm a guy) I think this is true. When I was in high-school and even into early college, I was constantly in the friend zone. Not so, later on, though.

The trick is to learn some confidence. A man needs to learn to be a man. This does not involve womanizing, nor does it involve worshiping the ground she walks on (both extremes). There are just certain features about a man that women are pre-programmed to (generally) like. Luckily, men are (generally) pre-programmed with those features to varying degrees.

Basically, I look at other "friend-zoned" guys now, and I look back at my younger self and see a bunch of boys. Immature, meek, mild, unwilling to take a risk, desperate, trying too hard. Women like to see men. Someone with more capability than whatever they've gained by accumulating mold sitting on the internet in their mama's basement. Men were made to conquer, to fix, to protect. We were made to be bold, to make decisions, take risks.

It's largely because the "friend-zoned" boys lack these things that they land themselves in the friend zone. When the girl you pursue already has total control over you because you're desperate, you're done. Show some independence and prowess. Not just to impress her, but because it's a man's birthright.

Hopefully this isn't buried at the bottom, but most posters on the topic of friend-zoning always assume the wrong definition of the friend zone. The friend zone is when a girl knows a guy is interested in her, and she keeps leading him on with flirting and sexual hints but has no actual intention of hooking up with the guy. For some reason people think it's when a girl has made it clear she isn't interested a guy but he sticks around anyways thinking if he is nice enough to her eventually she'll give in and hook up with him, that's just what weird desperate guys do and it is not the friend zone.

Try hard alcohol instead of kindness Coins. Trust me on this, I'm from the internet.

MF_Kitten · 6 months

Friend-zoning is a result of guys being too scared to just SAY what they mean. You know?

UrsaMajor83 · 6 months

The analogy is a little fuzzy for me, but I am a lady, and if I understand what the facebooker is saying, she is dead wrong. Kindness coins totally result in sex falling out.

holyerthanthou · 6 months

But I guess men are still just machines you put kindness coins into till money falls out.
