Can anybody feel good about making out with a fat girl for two weeks or continually getting friend zoned by girls who end up hating you in the end?
Maxtro,I've been waiting and waiting for you to figure this "friendzone" thing out. It's better for someone to learn something or to "get it" on their own than for someone to tell them. However,it seems from your replies that even after all you've been through,you still don't understand
WHY you're "continually getting friendzoned by girls who end up hating you". So I'll just flat out tell you. You want to know why you keep getting friendzoned? It's because you approach girls as a friend. Yeah,it's just that simple. You approach them as a friend,then they respond in like manner. Your problem is
fear. You want to be close to girls,but you're afraid of rejection. So your method of getting close to them is
pretending to only want to be their friend. Then,when you get sick and tired of hiding your true feelings,you tell the girl how you really feel,but by then it's too late. She's already gotten used you to hanging around her in a friendly manner,then that's when she pulls the "let's just be friends" on you.
And as for these girls hating you,the reason they "hate" you is because they feel deceived....and they're right. You deceived them by pretending to be their friend for the past 8 months,then one day,you decide to switch everything up on them. They feel that the WHOLE TIME you've been around them was just a sham,just some ploy to just try to get in their pants.
That's why they "hate" you.

I wonder how much they can actually feel.
I guess as men,we'll probably never truely know and understand how much a woman feels,but if the same thing keeps happening over and over again to you,that should be a clue that you need to alter
something about the way you approach.

Is it really my mind frame that makes the difference?
YES!!!Take another look at what Badmannaz said.
He said
in order to have different things in your life what makes you think you would obtain them with the same mindframe that didn't get you anything???!!
This statement is pure genious. Think about it:If you've had mindset "A" for the past 10 years,and for the past 10 years,you've been angry,frustrated,and disappointed with your dating life,then how does going into the next 10 years with the same mindset (mindset A) suppose to produce what you want? If it hasn't helped you get what you want after 10 years,then why would it "suddenly" start helping?
I'm so tired of getting hurt. I'm struggling to protect the rest of my ego.
THIS IS THE PROBLEM MAXTRO.
You say you're trying to protect your ego. How,by not risking rejection? That's the problem man. Look,without a risk of rejection,(either by the guy or the girl),there can be no dating/relationship. The risk of rejection is
ESSENTIAL. And guess what? 90-95 percent of the time,it's us guys who'll have to put ourselves out there on the line.
As long as you're trying to avoid rejection,you'll keep ending up in this dead-end....and that's a promise.
This point seems to keep slipping your mind,so I'm going to say it again:
AS LONG AS YOU KEEP TRYING TO AVOID REJECTION,YOU'LL KEEP UP ENDING IN THE FRIENDZONE/A DEAD-END.

Since I have very few girls in my life that I can actually talk to I feel that being friendly with them and hiding my interests is better then her finding out I'm interested which eventually means we can't talk anymore.
Yeah? Well keep doing this Max. Keep doing what you've been doing,and you'll keep getting what you've been doing. If you have any girls in your life right now that you're friends,but who you're interested in,then I would just keep my interest hidden because it will wreck your friendship. What I'm saying is not to do this with a girl who you've
just met,with a girl who you've not yet established a "friendship". In that situation,I'd reveal my interest from the getgo,as soon as possible.

This school year there were two girls that I was very interested in. Shortly after Girl A (whom I've written several threads about) found out that I liked her, all hell broke loose and she refused to talk to me for the rest of the semester.
Yeah,because you deceived her. If I had known,or thought I knew someone for a length of time,then all the sudden found out that they were putting up a front and basically being phony with me the whole time I knew them,I'd throw a fit too.
Maxtro said:
Of course everything that happened was my fault but it unfortunately still reinforces the belief that letting girls know I'm into them, makes things turn out very badly.
Wrong,
wrong,wrong! Letting a girl know you like her doesn't make things turn out bad. It letting her know you like her
AFTER being fake and pretending to be her friend for over half a year. Don't believe me? Then the next time you see a girl you like,let her know your interest from the getgo in a confident manner. Then watch what happens.
Maxtro said:
Anyways getting back on point, is it better to have a girl who knows you like her, hate you or being able to be freindly with a girl who doesn't know?
How about a third option. How about just not ending up in this situation in the first place? Revealing your interest FROM THE BEGINNING will detour you around both these friendzone potholes.
That's why I keep posting here. I haven't given up yet. I still have some energy, some drive.
Well having energy is good,but you don't want to be like a wheel stuck in a mudding hole. You step on the accelerator and the wheel just spins and spins and spins. The harder you press the gas,the faster the wheel spins. And not only do you not get out of the rut,but the more energy you expend,the deeper you go. Energy without knowledge just leads to frustration.
