Byzantine Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 The friend zone isn't mythical... Aye. Do not be too quick to dismiss all tales you hear. There are more things in heaven and earth, Miles, / Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. Trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are more things in heaven and earth, Miles, / Than are dreamt of in your philosophy. Trust me. I have always loved that quote. :like3: I have said a few times before: the friendzone exists, but it is not what most people think it is. If you get friendzoned, it is primarily your fault in most cases, and what it boils down to is that you act like a doormat. So hopefully that is not what happened to you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The friend zone is a made-up thing used as an excuse to not tell the other person how you feel, and the way to get out of it is to stop being a wuss and just tell the other person how you feel. If the friendship is ended by it, then it wasn't that great of a friendship in the first place, and if the other person doesn't feel the same way, that's okay, because you're not entitled to reciprocated feelings, and there's nothing wrong with being friends anyway, since you are supposed to marry your best friend.

Huh? If Person A doesn't feel the same as Person B (Person B the one with romantic feelings) that's just the way it is. Seriously, there's nothing more awkward than a friend being into you when you have absolutely zero romantic interest in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the bolded part, yeah bro, that is the friendzone. Hence my insistence that people do not understand what it really is. As for the marrying the best friend thing, I get what it is saying, and it is not exactly wrong, but I think it misses the point. There is much more to it than that.

EmilyAnn Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 The "friendzone" is just people who can't accept that sometimes you're interested in someone who doesn't reciprocate wanting to whine about it. The simple answer is: man up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Bombay Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 There's an entire industry built around whinging about this sort of thing. It's probably the one think worth mooning about. Probably not in this crowd, though. I love it when British cats spell "whining", "whinging" because it reminds me of Winger. Which brings us to this, horribly apropos for this thread: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PP3haouVUOI Now, wouldn't you prefer to start spelling like an American? Of course you would. :smile4: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Bombay Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I just wanted an excuse to post an 80s hair band. And I seized that excuse and made the most of it. That is all. Keep calm and carry on and all that rot, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winchester Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I understand your desire, but the execution was artless. Carry on, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
