It's pathetic when people complain about the friend zone, because it's simply a one-sided crush. The way some guys talk like they feel they are the only one entitled to that girl, disregarding her own feelings. Not what I would describe as a "nice guy". |

I don't believe in it, simple as that. wow its like reasoning with a 5 year old. Its a simply a reference to when one person wants to move the relationship forward when the other wants to keep it as a friendship, or are you denying that ever happens.....ever? Also this is not exclusive to a girl not wanting a relationship, it can swing either way. Although it tends to be the men who get "friendzoned". I say this because i apparently friendzoned a girl at school. no idea i had done it at the time because she hadnt told me she liked me. I am not citing wiki as a serious academic article, simply as a reference to what the term means, something you seem unable to grasp. Thats all it it is, a term to describe a certain situation. |

It's a stupid term. Narmy put it perfectly, it's like you simple blame it on some "friend zone", if the girl doesn't feel the same way. No sorry, even if you weren't friends the outcome with be the same. So I guess that's the "not friends just a random person" zone? |

You are like a blinkered horse, i can see why so many people choose to wind you up on these forums. Its like a little kid throwing a tantrum because she doesnt like something. |

The people who are the "nice guys finish last" types are usually emotional dependent, awkward, needy, clingy and always seeking emotional attention, that would make anyone feel awkward and uncomfortable just talking to them. If your not good looking then you can easily make up for it in other areas, but being ugly and having an crappy personality a death sentence. |

What I got so far: Guys in friend zone are guys who shared their feelings to their crush, but she didn't accept them. But: Doesn't the same thing happen to the girls as well. Question: If they manage to keep their friendship after and both parts act nicely to each other is it really that much of a problem? |

Now i have a gorgeous gf of nearly 3 years. It was the same kind of principle. I find it hard to believe that the ugly fat dudes got laid more during highschool though. Also citing one example of one friend doesnt make it an absolute truth.

Yes thats pretty much it, and as i said it can happen to girls ( my example of a girl i apparently friendzoned when i was at school) As to the question, well yer if the person stop liking the other and the friendship continues thats fine, but its still painful. |

You can't tell a woman who was beat up by three boyfriends and is convinced that every other guy will do the same to her that she's wrong - the mental association will still linger either strongly or subtly; it just doesn't work like that (not saying I've been in that situation). Depending on the person, it'll take time for them to realize that they're truly wrong. Hasn't happened for me yet. |

I don't think it's like that. Nice guys usually cheat themselves by thinking they want good girl, but instead they are drawn to those "bad" girls. Honestly I am in that "nice" group and I never had problems. I am simply what I am, most important is that I am friendly, even with strangers, I don't sit quietly and just listen. When women say "We want a guy that listens" they don't mean "We want someone who can't say a word"... And I have no idea what I wanted to say. When I think about it I'll post again xD |

Or if you know it before you date them, you simply don't date them. So what even are we discussing here. |

I've no idea why you can't manage to find a girlfriend, but nice guys don't finish last, and if they do, it certainly has nothing to do with them being nice. Some teen girls think dating "bad boys" is cool, which is sorta immature, but it's mostly because they tend to show a lot of confidence whereas for some reason a lot of nice guys are less confident. Self confidence is attractive, and in general, girls are more attracted to confident guys (and even more if they're nice) than guys with low confidence. |

I'm just speaking for myself, though. I'm a very closed person irl because I want to avoid being judged even if the person has no intentions of doing so. Maybe I just have some sort of weird social anxiety, who knows. |
