The friendzone is simply people holding on to hope despite knowing the other person is not interested. No need to stay in a platonic relationship with someone who is not interested. Best to move on I’d say. |

Not sure if I see it as a curse or an excuse.
Have had friends who I expressed feeling for and they wanted to just stay friends. Fine.
Have had friends wanted to explore kink with and they said they were worried it would affect the friendship, but I would not have wanted to explore those things if we were not friends first. |

The freindzone isn't really a place you want to be.
It means you've wanted someone and they like you enough not to tell you to fuck off but not enough to actually be with you.
You open yourself up to a lot of heartache watching them go off and meet other people that offer them something you could not.
There's not a lot of point in hanging on to someone that doesn't want to be with you.
if the two of you happen to have a great friendship with each other and are comfortable with each seeing other people, then you're no longer in the freindzone... you are simply friends. |

Some men can’t distinguish between a women being friendly and being a friend and a women who is being nice because she fancies him, signals get scrambled wire get crossed.
The mrs found out this the hard way when about 3/4 of her male friends tried it on when we have a short break up in the early days.

"I don't feel cursed if someone I'd like to be in a romantic relationship with wants to be my platonic friend. Some people do though and that's their prerogative "
I don't mean wanting to be in a relationship with but I understand your point you made |

If I’m told the other person is not interested sex wise, I’m happy to walk away and leave it there. I’d not hold out any hope of the “one day” it is what it is, I would never get nasty or ignore because they didn’t want to have sex with me. But again I wouldn’t go chasing in the vain hope |

Oh sorry I misunderstood  .
I could probably be friends with someone I fancied who didn't fancy me but I mostly have no inclination to fuck any of my friends men or women and I think the feeling is mutual  |

Nope, one person in particular I became pretty good friends with, we flirted and such and we both admitted we found each other attractive, but circumstances just made it easier to be friends and I'm grateful for that.

Do I consider the friendzone to be a curse?
No, absolutely not. They’re not interested in me and that’s ok! I cannot understand people who get so worked up by someone not showing interest in them.  |

Don't have a problem with it in general. Thought did have one situation where I genuinely thought she was interested in more than just friendship (as did our mutual friends) so I was a little taken aback when I suggested a date, only to be knocked back.

I think it depends on if the friend loves you or just wants to fuck, if he or she loves you then its not their fault, they cant helo it but if they just want to have sex with you its probably because of the stories you tell them lol |

I don't know about the friend zone but I'm like the foster home zone.
I usually attract them, show them some love and they vanish off to their forever homes.
Its a bit shit.
I'd rather just be a friend |

But then why tell a person things that could entice them when you know your not into them ?  |

I have loads of female friends and we respect each other I understand that it can be extremely difficult for a woman to actually find a decent guy who'll accept this bond of friendship but it's awesome to have and hold |
