A lot of stupid men think being a woman's friend will let her "warm up" to him and he will eventually get her in bed. This does happen sometimes though. I have one buddy who was friends with a woman for over 10 years before they started dating. But he was dating and f*cking other women while they were friends. Its almost like she was the one in the friendzone and maybe she was.Well absolutely. I never said that I allow myself to be taken for a ride. I think we are on a similar page.
Classically 'friend-zoning' harps back to the imperative that being 'friends' necessarily means anything more than that. It's largely the fault of weak men who don't understand their own conditioning. No wonder some people exploit the situation.
Generally the friendzone is when a man wants to sleep with a woman and she does not want to sleep with him. So the man settles for friendship because he has no other options and nothing better to do with this time. He plays the role of a submissive, white knight orbiter for the woman.
If a man has female friends who he is indifferent about f*cking.. then its not really the friendzone. My main message and point is men should not waste time with women who are not giving them what they want. Also, a man should not allow women to make relationship "rules" he does not agree with out of fear of rejection. I would say that is the most common behavior faggot betas engage in.
