Some men and women make such a big deal about being friendzoned by the person they like. Why is that such a bad thing? I don't see why some people get so upset by it, then again I don't have much in common with other people.

Friend zone is when you're interested in a girl but she is not interested in you. Being friend zoned is not a friendship.

Unless you have no balls, the friend zone is the most ridiculous place to be.

I am also a SF 49ers fan. It is the men who get FZ'd not the other way around though. If you let it get to you than it will effect your confidence. I would take that FZ as an opportunity to succeed.

It is friendship if you continue on but men decide to walk away!

The guy is suppose to use the FZ to his advantage by meeting other girls from her .

Usually, the big deal is that the guy (chump) has become friends with the woman first and has fallen for her over some period of time.

So, when he's rejected, he has some sort of emotional attachment to her and it's almost like being dumped.

The other thing is, she knows all of his good qualities, and is still rejecting him, as opposed to some woman rejecting him at a bar.

Also, typically, the same woman shortly after will date some guy who is a total d@uche and jerk.

I mean, it's all very cliche, but shockingly, I've seen it all happen.

So, that is why it's a big deal.

Well, maybe his good qualities aren't good enough and that "douche bag" is still a better candidate than that poor "nice guy" who was too much of a wuss to make a move.

Well. It's kind of misleading. Because those 'd@uchbags' are always good looking guys. So, that is more the determining factor.

I agree with you. You don't do that. If you're attracted to a woman, you make a move.

It doesn't matter how many good qualities you have anyway if there's no attraction there. Might as well get your answer early and move on.

I've been friendzone free for some years now.

Some women like being friends first though. You just have to roll the dice. If you come out too fast, she will think you only want her for sex.

The key is to not get attached first. Only get attached once accepted. This is how the women's mind works.

Would this apply to 30+ women? Not much.

The DB is good for short-term though. At the end, she will end up with a geek. All this applies to 20s women though.

Always? Maybe to some. The stable boring guy could be good looking too.

Good looking guys get FZ too.
