Is the friendzone thing just a meme, /adv/? I'm falling

the friendzone is not real, made up by neckbeards who are salty because the person they like doesn't like them back.

shit dude, if you like someone, they don't owe it to you or anyone else to like you back. it's not a friendzone, they just don't like you that way. get of their back.

anyway, you're just gonna have to ask her if you want to start something with her. just be like "yo my man my dude my guy, i've developed some feelings for you and i want to spend more time with you. want sum fuk?"

if she likes you, cool. if not, move on.

> "yo my man my dude my guy, i've developed some feelings for you and i want to spend more time with you. want sum fuk?"

I'm guessing that means to stay upbeat when saying it. Unless I should actually ask that bae for sum fuk.

The friend zone is very real. It's jyst not what people make it out to be.
>>17746777 has it wrong for example.

It's not about them owing you anything. It's about when you ask them out and make your intentions known, but rather than rejecting you politely, they trap you with false hope. "I'm not looking to date right now" or "maybe one day, but not now" are all common excuses.
Those ARE rejections though.

The best way to avoid the zone is to make your intentions known, and accept a rejection with dignity and move on. I know it seems like a girl is the one. But she very well might not be. There's millions of women inn this world. Good luck.

Thanks for the insight. I'm pretty good at taking rejections for what they are. I'd like to stay friends with her if she rejects me, but if she doesn't say yes, I'll take a break from her and won't go after her any more. I also don't think she's "the one", I just know I really like her.

btw ignore pic title pls

unrelated i swear

Of course. There's nothing wrong with distancing yourself if it helps you to move on. But don't abandon the friendship if you can avoid it. Otherwise you end up looking like the asshole
