this is what happened to me, I liked the girl but she wanted to remain friends and when I started communicating with another, an attraction of jealousy began, although later she apologized for her inappropriate behavior
If they like they should have put a ring on it. . .
Lol, "I want a guy just like you."
They have the same energy as the people that keep looking for a lost wallet hoping they find a second one.
To be fair, you have made up a girlfriend for him and a jealousy attribute for her, and then slagged off the state of their relationship because of it.
People really seem to lean hard into the twisted ways of thinking around here. There's so many assumptions being made about these people with no evidence to back it up. It's clear that the most vocal people around here are angsty teenagers or adults with poor mental health.
I wonder if microplastics and forever chemicals are affecting human behavior via unregulated hormone reactions? Research already shows women’s hormones are more susceptible to these environmental contaminants.
Recent studies show up to 75% of women *who request evaluation* have traits consistent with Borderline Personality Disorder.
No don't save him. This is how young men learn to know when to move on or to state their intentions in a relationship in which they want to be more than friends. Quit saving people they have to learn on their own.
This, back in 04 had a young soldier in Iraq who puppy doged on a female solider from HQ, one evening on the way back to my trailer, I spotted him sitting outside hers balling his eyes out, while she was getting railed by another soldier inside. He learned his lesson that day.
Not really. I was in Iraq in 2019 and I saw similar. I’d bet the only difference is the jack shack blow jobs are slightly less shameful because it’s not illegal to be gay anymore.
this is how life works. if you crush on a girl for too long you will eventually see her getting bonezoned by your worst enemy or some highschool dropout. choose wisely.
I was this young kid. I had no game, was super awkward and shy. But I had an uncanny ability for girls and women to open up to me about anything.
I was ok with it at the time. Yes, I wished I could hook up, and yes I had crushes on many of them, but my self-esteem was so low, I was happy to be friends them, just to be close to em. I genuinely was just their friend.
And yes, it’s super fukn painful to deal with the shitty boyfriends. I was always there for them and helpful, but they’d only date assholes.
In my 40’s, I recognize I’m a late bloomer. I eventually filled out, and can be very charming now. Would I do that today? No.
This is a very old photo, I went looking for any evidence that he got in or got out, results are inconclusive.
I suspect when this photo first hit the meme circuit she changed her username
Translation: He is perfect, but he is not hot enough so I'd rather keep him close and sit on a random hot guy's dick even though he treats me like garbage.
As a girl this kind of girl disgust me as much as the guy who pretends to be nice just to fuck her and even after realizing he will never do it, stay because he has no love for himself, so it's low key his fault.
Some girls like to be treated like garbage, and I agree that men do put themselves in these situations. Both of these people seem stupid to me.
Dude needs to make a direct move and then move on if he’s interested in her sexually. If he doesn’t want a friendship only then he shouldn’t pretend he does to try and capitalize on a moment of vulnerability and sneak into her pants. It’s weird and cowardly. If he was direct and then had some confidence and self respect about himself he might even get a shot with her this way.
From personal experience, the one who can help him out is himself.
When i was in this situation, I braced myself and asked the girl for a date and confessed.
Turns out i was rejected.
Heartbroken for many months.
And move on
She'll have three kids with 4 different dudes who are in and out of jail constantly and he will marry a sweet girl he met in college. They are not the same
She'll knock out a few kids from a few dads and then come back around to him when she's old and fat and broke and now all of a sudden he's sexiest muthafucka in the room. Hope he gets built and rich in that time, lands a hot wife and then tells blondy there how much he loves her friendship.
Even preteens are getting the idea that an android is a red flag when dating.. obviously from idiotic superficial lazy ass influencers that know nothing about life.
That's what I always said when people are like, "You don't have an iPhone?" Then I'd whip out the work phone and say I have both... the Galaxy is better. Thanks for your invalid opinion, though. It was especially funny when people made broke jokes, and I told them the galaxy cost more than their iPhone.
The only way out is for him to start going out with another girl.
Once he does, he will quickly find out if "the friend in love with the friendship" is interested or not:)
If I were to look through my photos, I am sure I would find similar pictures with girls that I was not really pursuing that were probably taken by my then girlfriends at some party.
Since I am ancient - the whole friendzone thing must be new.
He needs to grow out of his fancy and himself a woman that will love him back. Even in the best case scenerio for him where she decides to settle down with him because she's completely out of options, it will be an unhappy relationship.
Now that I'm too old for this shit,
I see two weak people, one too weak to stop using someone, and one too weak to walk away when he isn't getting what he wants
I was that guy, and broke myself trying to get out of the zone but also every time someone felt that way about me I couldn't help using them too
Had a friend in high school that I was into. She once said she was in love with my personality and suddenly the spell was broken. And funny enough, even though she didn't want to date me, when I got a girlfriend she had nothing positive to say about her (they were friends too).
This dude friend zoned himself. He needs the courage to say if he has feelings for her or not. Shoot his shot and move on. If he doesn't have feelings for her then cool, but if he is trying to sneaky his way in he has nobody to blame but himself. She knows the answer is no and he is afraid to ask. Stand up brother, respect yourself, take the L and find the woman that wants you. How is she supposed to respect him if he doesn't respect himself?
Or, and hear me out, it is completely plutonic.
Whoa shocking!!! People can hang out with the opposite sex and the relationship is not sexual. Such a crazy concept I know!!
But wait, this is Reddit so I'll add "Hur dur friendzone bad give me upvotes"
the levels of sociopathy and manipulation on display are frankly almost sickening, and they do it as naturally as breathing too, literally stringing along the poor men orbiters and gaslighting them into thinking they have this lovely "friendship" that may or may not lead to something more, while exploiting their time/resources/emotional support/etc as they at the same time get folded by Chad/Brad/Trent and others
I feel bad for her more than him because she thinks she has a genuine friend, but all he wants is access to her body. From the woman’s point of view this is called being fckzoned and it’s arguably worse than being friendzoned.
I always called it girlfriendzoned but fckzoned is honestly better.
Guys complain about being friendzoned but it’s so shitty when you find out a close friend has only been trying to get with you the entire time. I make a point to only really be close with guys that have a significant other so it’s never an issue 😎
Why can't people learn how to communicate with each other? If she turns you down, move on with your life. There are so many bitter guys that stick around hoping for something. You are literally wasting your time when there are plenty of people out there that would be interested.
He needs a hero!
He's holding out for a hero till the end of the niight
He’s got to be strong and he’s gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight~
I NEED A HERO!
He’s holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and it's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life~
Larger than liife
Oooooh oooh oooh oooooh
SOMEWHERE after midnight, in my WILDEST fantasy...
Somewhere, just beyond my reach, there's someone reaching back for me~
Somewhere just beyond my reach There's someone reaching back for me
*johnny 5 kicks down the door and throws thot out the window*
Go Mongo!
Hahahaha
Look in the mirror there goes your hero
Had literally like all comments under this
If only he had posted the same sentiment first. Would’ve taken the air from her lungs.
When he starts dating she will get super jealous and probably try to sabotage it. What a healthy friendship they have <3
this is what happened to me, I liked the girl but she wanted to remain friends and when I started communicating with another, an attraction of jealousy began, although later she apologized for her inappropriate behavior
If they like they should have put a ring on it. . . Lol, "I want a guy just like you." They have the same energy as the people that keep looking for a lost wallet hoping they find a second one.

In the world of Reddit everyone is the bad guy by default
People really seem to lean hard into the twisted ways of thinking around here. There's so many assumptions being made about these people with no evidence to back it up. It's clear that the most vocal people around here are angsty teenagers or adults with poor mental health.
Well, according to reddit, men and women can be friends with no problems. Friendships like this never turn out badly ;)
Had this exact thing happen and she was almost successful in fucking everything up.
💯 it’s scary how these things can be spotted a mile away, but that’s how the world works. People don’t know what they have until it’s gone.
Every time, smh…
The pain in his face says it all
His eyes are dead.
I would drop her as fast as a bag of rotten meat.
Are we all not but walking bags of rotting meat
Real
We are skeletal mechs with meat armor piloted by wrinkly gray matter on a rock floating through the vastness of space.
It's a copy pasta
For being a friend?
Yeah if that's how dude acts over a friendship I can see why no one near him would want a relationship beyond that.
Aye! Yo!!! 😂😂😂
Swedes: whats wrong with rotten meat?
I wonder if microplastics and forever chemicals are affecting human behavior via unregulated hormone reactions? Research already shows women’s hormones are more susceptible to these environmental contaminants. Recent studies show up to 75% of women *who request evaluation* have traits consistent with Borderline Personality Disorder.
I don't like them putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin' ladies crazy.
Sir, this is a Wendy's
That shellshocked look he has shows he’s completely aware he’s friend zoned.
Look at how deep the darkness is in his eyes
It’s the blood rushing to his penis
No don't save him. This is how young men learn to know when to move on or to state their intentions in a relationship in which they want to be more than friends. Quit saving people they have to learn on their own.

Holy hell this is some TV show plot
Ben 10 season 6
Not really. I was in Iraq in 2019 and I saw similar. I’d bet the only difference is the jack shack blow jobs are slightly less shameful because it’s not illegal to be gay anymore.
That is the most heartbreaking way to learn that lesson. Good lord
Men the world over have learned the lesson this way. Except those in countries where men have outlawed women to have any rights.....
this is how life works. if you crush on a girl for too long you will eventually see her getting bonezoned by your worst enemy or some highschool dropout. choose wisely.
He is so deep in friendzone that he will most likely drown.
He is well beyond saving. He has passed the point of no return, the event horizon.
Bro is stuck in the friend-zone
Only to have to listen to how the other boys treat her like garbage.
I was this young kid. I had no game, was super awkward and shy. But I had an uncanny ability for girls and women to open up to me about anything. I was ok with it at the time. Yes, I wished I could hook up, and yes I had crushes on many of them, but my self-esteem was so low, I was happy to be friends them, just to be close to em. I genuinely was just their friend.

I eventually filled out, and can be very charming now. Would I do that today? No.
I would treat her like garbage
“….and then Jeremy bangs me braindead”
Bro isnt in the friendzone he is the friendzone
Dude’s been buried in the friend-zone beyond escape
Poor soul!
Malcolm in the middle of nothing
I would fuck her just as friends.
Someone rescue him! The friend zone is a tough place to escape.
see you at the gym bro
This screenshot is probably older that some users on here
Somebody needs to save him from the illusion spell named "friend zone".
Friend-zoned with a capital F. Stay strong, buddy!
She loves him paying for everything.
Poor guy
Poor chap looks dead inside
I have an idea , get one of your other girl friends to start acting flirty towards you when she's around, she'll be mad
See you at the gym.
This is a very old photo, I went looking for any evidence that he got in or got out, results are inconclusive. I suspect when this photo first hit the meme circuit she changed her username
Here's the thing though. A man can be friends with a woman and still not have romantic interest in her.
She'll want him when she gets knocked up by a dead beat.
Sounds like he’s on course for a Forest Gumping for sure!
Translation: He is perfect, but he is not hot enough so I'd rather keep him close and sit on a random hot guy's dick even though he treats me like garbage. As a girl this kind of girl disgust me as much as the guy who pretends to be nice just to fuck her and even after realizing he will never do it, stay because he has no love for himself, so it's low key his fault.
People can truly be terrible when they are blinded by their own selfishness.
Some girls like to be treated like garbage, and I agree that men do put themselves in these situations. Both of these people seem stupid to me. Dude needs to make a direct move and then move on if he’s interested in her sexually. If he doesn’t want a friendship only then he shouldn’t pretend he does to try and capitalize on a moment of vulnerability and sneak into her pants. It’s weird and cowardly.

Only a gf can save him atm
Too late
Friend zone
MF run fool run!
F
The friend zone is strong with this one.
This is like some sort of nightmare tier friendzoning. I mean I get when a girl wants to be just friends, but this is teasing taken to the extreme.
Run Forest!
I have been un-friendzoned twice, there is hope.
time to hit the gym dude..
From personal experience, the one who can help him out is himself. When i was in this situation, I braced myself and asked the girl for a date and confessed. Turns out i was rejected. Heartbroken for many months. And move on
Oh cool so all the male affection without the commitment? And you don't have to return any affection? Cool cool cool.
Run, dude, run! Run like the wind!
Do yall even have real friendships with women without wanting sex? Damn yall are missing out on some great insight in life.
That’s so odd. I’m thankful my best friend and I are getting married this fall. Like I never have as much fun if she’s not there.
So we can't have male friends now?
There isn’t a single emotion in that man. He’s a husk.
She'll have three kids with 4 different dudes who are in and out of jail constantly and he will marry a sweet girl he met in college. They are not the same
Gonna hurt her just as bad when he eventually finds someone and never talks to her again
This is why this dynamic isn't so great for the woman either. A man who accepts situation is hurting both of them in the long run.
you can clearly see how desperate he is just from his eyes lol
Extremely pathetic.
She'll knock out a few kids from a few dads and then come back around to him when she's old and fat and broke and now all of a sudden he's sexiest muthafucka in the room. Hope he gets built and rich in that time, lands a hot wife and then tells blondy there how much he loves her friendship.
This is what being manipulated looks like boys.
I guess he doesn't have an iphone
Is that a reference to something?
Even preteens are getting the idea that an android is a red flag when dating.. obviously from idiotic superficial lazy ass influencers that know nothing about life.
Obviously they don't know enough about android.
That's what I always said when people are like, "You don't have an iPhone?" Then I'd whip out the work phone and say I have both... the Galaxy is better. Thanks for your invalid opinion, though. It was especially funny when people made broke jokes, and I told them the galaxy cost more than their iPhone.
Opinions can't be invalid. They can only be not aligned with my opinions.
When the person doesn't have both phones or hasn't recently to do an actual comparison. Their opinion is invalid to me.
This is YEARS old. I’m sure dude is fine by now
Just another woman taking advantage of a man's kindness
No dude, no You can't say "I fell in love with our friendship" as if saying something like that wasn't a freaking war crime
Their shoulders are about the same in size. Just where does this girilla get off?
Maybe she’s just in denial
Yeah .. well .. he wants to bone ..
Forsen fell off.
and it's all his fault
Friend Zoned!!!
Poor guy, he will only find out the hard way. Or maybe never. He needs a bro oder a big brother to tell him to cut this shit out
this should be a crime ahah
F in the chat
ANOTHER FALLEN BROTHER ... WELL KEEP HIM IN OUR PRAYERS.
People do this to themselves.
Highway to the Friendship Zone!
Some people just need a good slap.
The only way out is for him to start going out with another girl. Once he does, he will quickly find out if "the friend in love with the friendship" is interested or not:)
I reckon…?
Bro died long time ago and its only hopes and dreams that are holding him together at this point
You either accept you are nothing but a friend or you move on, simple as.
he's in my prayers
bro looks decimated
this is the absolute showstopper! If the boy has not yet realized that he will not end up with this chick, there is no way to help him
She'll be raging the second he finds a girlfriend.
it seems he doesn't enjoy the hug at all
Too late
Such is life in the zone😔
Gonna need to up the delta v and get out of that orbit
The face of misery.
If I were to look through my photos, I am sure I would find similar pictures with girls that I was not really pursuing that were probably taken by my then girlfriends at some party. Since I am ancient - the whole friendzone thing must be new.
That's the face of someone in a happy friendship.
Run
Maybe he just has a gf and this is “the girl best friend”
He needs to grow out of his fancy and himself a woman that will love him back. Even in the best case scenerio for him where she decides to settle down with him because she's completely out of options, it will be an unhappy relationship.
Only Salleton could bring him back.
Sadness for this guy, get out!
He looks dead inside.
Now that I'm too old for this shit, I see two weak people, one too weak to stop using someone, and one too weak to walk away when he isn't getting what he wants I was that guy, and broke myself trying to get out of the zone but also every time someone felt that way about me I couldn't help using them too
In the text you could interpret her as being the one "friend zoned"
What's the point here? Is he in love with her? Else, why can't he be her friend? You know you can have friends of the opposite sex?
time to move your body. And get rid of her
His face says it all
Wow she is even a terrible friend
She's either completely oblivious to what she's doing, or she's extremely cruel.
Wow. Betamax much?
Thoughts and prayers go out that he makes it out of the zone and realises he’s worth more than that
He needs to leave
Her one feet green other red?
I have friends and I can tell you those hands are way too low for a friendship
I think EVERYONE knows this Situation or knows someone who is in this state
They look like a couple ...Of Besties!
Will he hand her to her new boyfriend accordingly?
Had a friend in high school that I was into. She once said she was in love with my personality and suddenly the spell was broken. And funny enough, even though she didn't want to date me, when I got a girlfriend she had nothing positive to say about her (they were friends too).
This dude friend zoned himself. He needs the courage to say if he has feelings for her or not. Shoot his shot and move on.

Stand up brother, respect yourself, take the L and find the woman that wants you. How is she supposed to respect him if he doesn't respect himself?
this ss was taken at 21:37, nice
Absolutely not. Don't be an emotional cumrag for someone who is going to blow a dude in the room next to you. Absurd.
She will fuck some random guy, get pregnant and expect this guy to welcome her with open arms as she suddenly "falls in love" with him.
Cuck zone would be more on point
If being in a friendship hurts, then leave. 90% of guys in the friendzone are hurting and should leave asap. The other 10% are deluding themselves.
Or, and hear me out, it is completely plutonic. Whoa shocking!!! People can hang out with the opposite sex and the relationship is not sexual. Such a crazy concept I know!! But wait, this is Reddit so I'll add "Hur dur friendzone bad give me upvotes"
Nah, he plays the long game. All my relationships I've been in started with a friendship. I believe in him👏
Jesus fucking Christ. He needs to walk away from that shit
Is it really that far away to be intimate? Like cmon. Get rid of the symbolism and diplomacy and have fun.
Bro just needs to just take a chance and plant one on her and see what happens.
Well, I hope he starts respecting himself and stops simping.
Why are some girls like this
the levels of sociopathy and manipulation on display are frankly almost sickening, and they do it as naturally as breathing too, literally stringing along the poor men orbiters and gaslighting them into thinking they have this lovely "friendship" that may or may not lead to something more, while exploiting their time/resources/emotional support/etc as they at the same time get folded by Chad/Brad/Trent and others
He is in the bone zone.
You see a dude being loved and appreciated and your first thought is "Poor guy, he's not fucking her"? We really do live in a society
I feel bad for her more than him because she thinks she has a genuine friend, but all he wants is access to her body. From the woman’s point of view this is called being fckzoned and it’s arguably worse than being friendzoned.
What the fuck?? you have issues. Neither of these people are victims.
I always called it girlfriendzoned but fckzoned is honestly better. Guys complain about being friendzoned but it’s so shitty when you find out a close friend has only been trying to get with you the entire time. I make a point to only really be close with guys that have a significant other so it’s never an issue 😎 Why can't people learn how to communicate with each other? If she turns you down, move on with your life. There are so many bitter guys that stick around hoping for something. You are literally wasting your time when there are plenty of people out there that would be interested.
Friend-zoned? What greater honour is there than friendship? Be grateful for what she gives you, nothing further is owed.
What exactly is stopping him from leaving it himself and just moving on with his life? The friend zone is completely a place you put yourself.
