2 days agothere’s no other vocabulary to describe when your feelings aren’t reciprocated and met to the same standard by a friend you like but I personally just call it “rejection” Friend zone implies she owes me something but no she doesn’t I just want her to like me back like really bad 🥀🥀 And dude I want more female friends but I genuinely don’t care about making friends in general like that like why should I make friends to prove I’m not misogynistic I wanna be friends with ppl I like
9 days agoAlso from my experience it's often the woman who cuts the friendship after she rejects me. I usually don't mind staying friends afterwards lol
9 days ago"Friend zone" just describes when you like someone romantically and they don't feel the same way. Why are y'all drawing these weird implications when it's a completely innocent and gender neutral term.
10 days agoI’ve been in the friend zone multiple times. Know what I did? Said “ok they don’t like me back. Time to move on.” And continued being friends with them in a non-weird way. Kindergarten level stuff here
10 days agoBecause many men have surface level relationships with their fellow male friends that are activity based instead of actual deep intimate friendships. So many times the attraction comes from having that woman be the first relationship that's beyond surface level. Men need to learn how to have deep emotional intimacy with friendships and then friendships with women will feel more possible without it feeling like rejection.
