Having a crush or falling in love with someone can result in two different ways. Either that person has the same feelings for you or you get put in the friend zone. And a quick fun fact did you know that the term friend zone was popularized by the American sitcom Friends. And from then on people have been labelling themselves as friend-zoned whenever the person of their interest decides to just be friends and not take the relationship any further, it stings huh.

Getting friend-zoned can just be as painful as being in an actual breakup, it can even be more painful because all you want to do is to get away from that person but you just can't because they are still in that friendship that you want to keep. So you just get by every day trying your best to not get jealous when there's another person hovering around them or when they tell you about another person they might be seeing. At one point it probably crossed your mind for sure that there must be something that you could do to turn something around and make it work and this is where we come into the picture.

If she friendzone's you... Move on, period! It means you are a backup plan, not a first choice. She is saving your for later after she hits the wall.

Best way to get out of the friendzone? Move on to another girl.

[geoffdymond]

This is more or less what I've been doing over the last few months. I was playing the long game over many years and just getting deeper and deeper into the "zone". Cut contact to a absolute minimum, do what you want, smarten yourself up and keep your head up so you can notice who is noticing you.

[Shreadington]

The "friends with benefits" zone is the best.

[johnsmith-ktef]

If you get friend zoned and have a “crush” on someone just move on and stop hanging out. If you move on to someone else and they will come back and want you to “consider a relationship” it should be a no imo. If they come back and want you, it just shows me they have issues and it usually is a red flag from my experiences. I have platonic female friends that I would never consider anything more. If I like a woman, I make it known, if she doesn’t feel the same way, then I move on from them. Some of these described are bad advice. “Be her ideal man.” Lol no don’t do this, it’s terrible advice. You shouldn’t be spending this much time trying to “please” someone who doesn’t like you like that.

Every relationship needs a strong foundation called friendship. But, when a man doesn't show his intentions clearly from the beginning and just start making the woman comfortable and always looking for the right 'timing', that's when you enter the friendzone. The more you hesitate, the more you lose your chance.

Guys who told me they like me and gave signs they're interested romantically early on are the ones i see as potential partners. My guy friends are my guy friends because they never showed me any interest romantically. They ask me to be their wingman and delivery service. 😆

If a guy is friendzoned, he should remain quiet and wait for her. If she doesn't say anything, it's over. I say this because i've been friendzoned, and am tired of reaching out and getting rude replies.

[CheonMa]

I've met a woman and became her friend for almost 4 years. I tried to flirt a lot of times but sad to say she isn't saying anything and just keeps on telling I am just a friend, and then one day i realized how annoying it would be if I were in her shoes, and then i stopped chasing her slowly getting away and climbing on that deep pit of friendzone. I focused on myself even more now i'm glad she made me realized that. Since then i haven't courted anyone or flirt with anyone, I just go with the flow and let life do the work. I am working to become a better version of myself while still enjoying the good things i've missed when i was still chasing her 😁

[marnitson]

There is a way out of the friendzone. The thing is, at the end of this road it is very possible that you don't want her any more.

[djs]

I can honestly say I've never been "Friend zoned", usually it's just a flat-out rejection, no expectations of possible friendship.

[LadyFairChildVideo]

guys, attraction can not be negotiated. if she's not into you, fine, move on. work on yourself and become a better you, not for vvomen, but for yourself, your health and future. but to linger in her friend zone, is an exercise in self loathing and futility. what can a woman friend possibly bring you? nothing, that you can not provide for yourself if you follow the advice of working on yourself and a better you. the only friendzone you belong in with a woman is strictly platonic (no attraction, no fliriting aka you never hit on her and got rejected), and most importantly your wife (if you do go that route). that is the only female friend you'll ever need. all the other ones are a complete waste of time, if there was an attraction at some point.

How to escape the friend zone; Don’t accept the friendzone and realize as a man that you do not need that woman.

As a therapist, here are my thoughts: First, what IS the 'friend zone'? It's when someone has categorized you in their mind as merely a friend. Regardless of how you got categorized that way, the key to escaping is to somehow shift the other person's perceptions of you. The giant mistake people make is in trying to do this through words. If you are in the friend zone and are considering telling your specific person openly that you love them, STOP: Telling them explicitly will all but ruin your chances of getting them to view you as a desirable mate. The way to succeed is by shifting the context of your relationship so that what they see of you conflicts with their categorization of you as a friend. This is where it gets tricky as the contexts of 'friend' vs 'lover' are often close. A good question to ask if you are a man is, "In what situations would she be more likely to consider me as a romantic partner, rather than just a friend?" Then start putting yourself in those situations where she can be surprised and view you that way. For example, an ideal situation would be where you could demonstrate your masculine strength to save or protect her in some way that one of her girlfriends just could not do.

[KurtisStryker]

Good Job of explaining the friendzone I just leave her alone and start talking to. other women as you said earlier in the. video

[jaythenihilist]

Pull the ripcord. Cut your losses. Move on. That's all you can do.

[allainesantos]

Love yourself first and things will fall in its place.

[sohrabaslampour]

I have a crush on my bestie and we now each other for 3 months but now she just found someone else and is in a relationship with him. And she used me as back up to get her and that guy together. And that was one of the most painfull things ever.

[ojivey]

There are a number of ways for a guy to escape the infamous "friend zone".
1. Show an interest, in another girl who is considered "hot". Once your "friend" sees that you are diverting your interest toward someone else, then your sexual market value will increase, at least in her eyes.
2. Take up a hobby, such as Judo, a foreign language, Religion, or Aviation, If she sees that you a passionate about something, other than her, she will want to date you, just so you can transfer some of that passion on to her.
3. Go to Graduate School, get a masters degree in IT, and get a job at Google, making a six figure income.
4. Wait for about 10 yrs, when your "friend" is over 30 yrs old, a baby mama, with 4 kids, 90 pounds overweight, and working at Walmart for $15.00 / hour. Now, that she has no other options, she will be falling all over herself to go out with you, in a heartbeat.
5. Win the Lottery.

Its kinda weird how do you follow the advice of "go on dates with other girls" when you're always friend zoned by each girl you meet and none of them want to go on dates with you?

[roymillsjnr]

doesnt matter how good looking you are, confident talented not everyone will take to you its the law of attraction both men and women when do you stop trying cant say with that one you see the brain as a picture of the one for you it links up with all your desires but it may not be theres so youve got to give up at somestage .👍
