Doesn't it just svck, to fall so hard for someone, only to be friend zoned? I told my best friend an hour ago, how I felt, and she proceeded to give me the "I love you, but not like that" speech, etc. However, I must say, it has lifted such a weighing burden on me, I can finally say, I am free. Anyway, this happen to anyone else? Got any stories to share?



PS: I'M FREE.

I'm not trying to sound super cool or anything, but it hasn't happened to me for awhile. I just stopped putting myself in that type of situation, because its unhealthy for both people.

Glad to hear it, man. Time to move on, or are you going to stay friends with her?

Was this inspired by friendzone johnny on reddit?

Thanks! I don't know, I was never really one to give up. I couldn't lose a best friend, so I'll probably just lose the feelings via time, and stay friends with her. These situations are tough, but I was one to believe that time sort've fixes things up

Haha, I saw those, well, this is real life stuff. To be honest, I've liked this girl for months, but I couldn't keep living like this, I guess they pushed me to do it? I don't know, but the stress was getting to me...

Nah man, I totally understand where you are coming from. I'm sure almost every guy in the world, including myself have been in the same situation. The stress of having someone you really like as a friend is too much for me as well, so I think you acted in the best possible way. You gotta look after yourself sometimes. I hope everything is okay for you, because even though in the long run it'll be better, it probably stings a bit right now.

There's this girl I started liking ~4 years ago. Missed my chance, got friend zoned. "Cool, whatever," I said. "I'll just move on, going to start university soon!"

She ends up going to the same school as me. And just won't leave me alone. Problem is, whenever I hangout/talk to her alot, I start liking her again. Everytime I try to forget about her, she just bumps her way into my life somehow (sometimes through the most random ways) and I don't have the heart to just tell her to [censored] off. <-- There's my story.

svcks, don't it? I know man, gotta protect #1 at all times, haha. It svcked, though I wonder what the future between us will be like....ah, I'm sure it isn't something time can't fix


Did you ever tell her how you felt?

Maybe shes taking a liking to you, so you may have another chance if you want to take it.

Yup. Utter silence on her end. I figured she didn't feel the same, but then she started wanting to hangout alot soon after that. Can't figure her out for the life of me...
Rarely seems that way when I'm around her.

Maybe she was scared didnt know what to say.
Can always ask again.

Sometimes it can be a blessing in disguise OP.

I get on with girls a lot better than guys, so have tonnes of girl mates...but I got my best friend from being friendzoned! I was so into her, almost on the verge of falling in love...I talked to her about it, she said that she had thought about it before and decided it probably wouldn't work. Obviously I had to accept that at the time and yeah, it hurt. But you've gotta realise that if they really aren't into you, chances are they never will be. You might as well make a new friend out of it, right? After all, you can never have too many friends.

Today, 2 years later, that girl is still my best friend. We share everything, we're constantly hanging out and her family see me like a son! If I'd just not bothered with her because she wasn't interested, I'd be much worse off today (obviously I can't know that for sure, but given the choice, I'd keep things how they are!). Whenever we get drunk, we tend to fool around, but it's funny because there are absolutely no romantic feelings there at all anymore. She's just my best friend

Nonsense. It's part of being young. Some of my best memories of childhood involve heartbreak. Revel in it.

I agree. Better to have it happen at a young age than when you're a bit old and have access to copious amounts of alcohol!

Been friendzoned like... twice. Yeah, not a pretty thing, a lot of emotional turmoil. But look at it this way, at least you told her how you felt. It's way better off than keeping your feelings in bottled up and always have a sinking feeling of regret at what could've been. Better get hurt now than to keep on looking back, right? I tried something different this time, I started becoming close to this girl I kinda liked, and immediately told her my intentions after a second time out with her. We're not a thing (yet), but getting there. I guess.

Oh, and at least you aren't in the gayzone. That's leagues worse.

I was just friends with one of my ex-girlfriends for over two years before we started dating, and almost four years with another. The Friend Zone doesn't exist. It's just an excuse guys use so they can tell themselves that, if circumstances had been different, the girl in question would definitely have fallen far them while in fact she probably never would have been interested in a romantic relationship.

How positively depressing

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

:rofl::rofl: Aww that guys gotta be raging if he aimed to get more than a thank you

Dude get "Friends With Benefits" status, I asked this girl out once didn't get a relationship but did get other things, and that helped afterwards to realise she was a bit of a [censored]....Fun times, fun times.

I've been "friend-zoned" before, but I've broken out of it.

I hope you properly disposed the body afterwards. Can't leave trace of your bodily fluids on corpses with today's forensic technology.

I had it once years ago when I first got interested in boys and all that. Was utterly convinced that I was in love, but he was very sweet and didn't lead me on. Now I realise what a pathetic puppy dog I was and I'm surprised he could even be friends with me most of the time! I'm glad nothing happened now though because I doubt our friendship would have lasted as long as it did.
