Hmmn,I'm sorry but alot of things posted contadict each other or are just downright unfair.First of all the post is refering to that persons personal experience.That is just one form of the friendzone.There are other versions.Secondly the guy in her post is a jerk for trying to use her for his desires but the guy doesnt represent every guy in the friendzone.There are actually guys that truly care for women and arent just using them.
The woman is pleased to see a man who is interested in her not as a sexual object but as a human being and wishes for things to stay that way.
I think this is worded poorly.It implies that if a guy approaches a girl in an effort to be more than friends then he only see's her as a sexual object.
''if you truly cared about a girl and she was going out with a jerk and it frustrated you, you would talk to her about it''
''it's her choice in the end and it's no one's business except hers''
These quotes seem to contradict each other
''it's her choice in the end and it's no one's business except hers''
I'm sorry but if a girl willingly choose to date an asshole instead a guy who truly cares for her then she's not very bright.And no the guy she chooses to date is not an asshole just because he was chosen over the friendzoned guy.I talking about a legit jerk who mistreats her.
''And second, what option does the woman have in a traditional “friendzone” situation? Just stop talking to a close friend to avoid “leading him on”?
While I do agree that a guy just cutting a close friend out of his life because she wont date him is messed up,If the guy is hurting emotionally over her what choice does he have but to leave.I know that if i had strong feelings for a girl but i knew she didnt feel the same i wouldnt want to endure that.
''The 'nice guy' you're talking about is a misogynistic asshole''
This isnt true for all guys who refer to themselves as nice guy.I see myself as a ''nice guy'' but i dont use women for sex.
''it's one of the many things that continue the war on women''
I'm really not sure what your talking about here.
In the end all im saying saying there are different examples of the friendzone.That persons story doesnt precisly describe the friendzone,that is just her experience.Remember to be straight up with the one you have feelings for and if they dont feel the same just move on.
