Ouch... Let us have a moment of silence for our friendzoned brothers and sisters... *bows head* Nah but that really does suck. I'm in the same situation. Message me if you need to talk!
Friendzoned 3 times. lucky it wasn't a serious crush ever, so it didn't hurt nearly as bad as I thought It would.
I dislike the term "friendzone." It implies there's some sort of obligation to return sexual attraction if someone's your friend. There isn't. Also, I resent the implication that friendships are secondary in importance/meaning to romantic/sexual relationships.
I know how you feel. I got turned down by a friend I developed feelings for a few weeks ago, but that's what happened; I didn't get 'friendzoned'. I had feelings for him, he didn't want to act on them, and so the mature thing to do is to get over myself and carry on being his friend. He doesn't owe me sex/a relationship because we hang out together. (additional plus side, when you think about it like that it's much easier to get over it instead of wallowing in self pity about being 'friendzoned')
I can't tell you how many guys I had to do that to over the years! Then I had a best FWB that I really love sex with, then his GF tightened the noose around his neck so tight it happened to me (unspoken). He still says he desires me, but never has the time these days it seems. It sure hurts bad! I have a BF now anyway and we are soulmates so I don't really want to play anymore either. All I can say is I am so sorry to hear it. That really sucks! No punn intended. LOL June
Hmm, I get that, but at the same time I don`t put quite that into the term. For example, as a lesbian woman, it would be troublesome for me if I kept falling for straight female friends. So I have gotten pretty good at friend-zoning, meaning simply that my friends end up in the friend box in my mind pretty automatically, and feeling an attraction to them would be like being attracted to my sister, they can parade around the house in their under-wear, and I don`t even notice. Friend-zoning is good for avoiding complications.
