DEAR MEN: You're Wrong About The Friend Zone

So many men complain about being in the friend zone, but the reality is that this often boils down to selfishness and self-centeredness even though most guys don't realize it. In this video I discuss the friend zone signs, why you're in the friend zone and what you need to do to improve your mental health and get out of the friend zone.

What's your experience with the friend zone?

[angeladelorenzo]

I'm not even all the way through the video and already I have to say *THANK YOU!* It's about damn time someone said it!

It's actually heartbreaking when a friend you've had for months or years comes out with all this repressed resentment for you because it turns out they were festering in the "friend zone" the whole time. They start to say stuff like it was a waste of time being friends because it didnt lead to anything. It's super shitty

I really love your viewpoint in this video. I tend to be entitled and don't always state my full feelings about a situation because I don't want to scare the guy off. Recently I tried to go out with a guy who liked me back but we didn't have chemistry. I felt slighted because I was always the one texting him first and putting in the effort. I became very hurt & discouraged because I liked him, but we didn't have chemistry and he wasn't trying very hard. Then, even though I was the one who called it off, s became jealous when he moved on and started to become a nice girl, self seeking. Trying to do stuff on purpose so he'd notice how much effort I was putting into trying to be nice for him. Because he didn't care about it beforehand. It made me feel like why do I even try to be nice when even a guy who liked me back initially, doesn't notice it. I'm going to work on my entitlement.

Thank you so much for talking about this.
Another issue I've noticed is often times I meet a guy and after hanging out for a bit, I let him know that I don't want a romantic relationship with them - only friendship if they're up for it. Somehow, they don't fully accept it. Like, they will say "okay, no problem", I'll be relieved, but then they go on treating me like a girlfriend. (Showing up at my workplace, buying me gifts, sending me messages too often...) It's very irritating and I often end up blocking them because they just won't stop. And even if I keep some as friends, then it's awkward and I always wonder what they're expecting from me?

Thanks man.. I am learning something new today.. "self-seeking "

Tbh, the friendzone thing is kinda dead now, the people that used that phrase a few years ago have grown up a bit, it's pretty much like a dead meme now, that being said there are men who think they deserve everything including the creepy shit with their friends that "put" them in the friendzone

I was the guy who rejected quite a few girls in the past I had no feelings for them I would have felt guilty if i had used them to my advantage I guess thats what some girls are thinking when friendzoning i guess the problem is pity the pity u showem by still talking to them when they did make their move somewhat you kbow it give them hope i had a lot of problems because i didnt cut ties with them right away I hang out with them talked but focused very much of reminding them that were just friends its very unhealthy in my opinion for the person that loves you and stop them from moving on so I just cut ties right away when i know the other person is somewhat obsessed with me...

[brucenadeau]

the thing wrong with the friend zone is that these girls that do not what a romantic relationship but the want the benefits of a relationship without return the feels
if they do not have feeling for the guy they need to let him go find someone that wants him

[dempseyrollo]

You're wrong. You have to go to the relationship with a self-seeking. Otherwise, Women will always take advantange of you.
