Discussion from Just Friends 2/6/13
1. What does a Friend Zone mean to you
-Very unfortunate/Sucky
-Jealousy, defeat, and hopelessness
-You are a doormat.
-You are no longer a dating option. You become this complete non-sexual entity in their eyes, like her brother/sister, or a lamp.
-A situation where 2 people are friends, but one gains romantic feelings while the other does not.
2. Suggestions for avoiding the Friend Zone
-Let the person know you want to be more than friends
-Sweep them off their feet. Be a romantic.
-Don't be too needy
-Don't talk with them about their current or possible relationships. Focus on #1
-Don't be a stalker/creeper/obsessive friend. Give them space
-Be impressive. Dress snazzy, look in their eyes. Tell them they are hot, sexy, or beautiful.
3. Can You Break out?
-Get a wingman/wingwoman to help you out
-Be unpredictable. Make a serious change. Be a challenge. Shock em a little
-Quit being a best friend. treat em like a partner
-Break the touch barrier. Avoid touch paralysis
Reach for their hair, hands, shoulders, back.
Tips
-Never Badmouth their current boyfriend/girlfriend
It will make the situation worse. they will defend their partner by finding more positive traits in them because you said something and now they think of you as a desperate hustler.
-Heed the word of spice girls. If you wanna be my lover. You gotta get with my friends!!!
And for goodness sake. Stay focused on the person. Quit texting and flirting with other people.
