Ok me and my friend were talking about some girls we know or have previously dated. Except there wasn't much for him to talk about considering he's only dated a like 2 girls so far. He told me just about every girl he becomes friends with just wants to stay as friends. We joked about how he keeps getting stuck in the friend zone(reference to a scrubs episode). But when i think about it, it is a little strange how he usually does end up just being friends with most girls he talks to. He's probably one of the most out going and funny guys i've ever met and it seems like everyone wants to hangout with him. Around school the majority of the time I see him he's talkin with some fairly hot chics, so why is he always just the friend. And I've seen for myself in english class it seemed like he was gettin good with this one girl. He told me he was thinkin about askin her out sometime. And then one day in class we were all talkin and he made a joke, and her response was "haha ____, i like you so much your like this awesome brother to me." ouch, but he still ended up askin her out a couple weeks later and he told me she said that she really liked the friendship they have and she wouldn't want that to change. So why does most girls only consider him a friend. And i understand where hes coming from cause its happened to me where I really liked this one girl and she told me pretty much the same exact thing the other girl told my friend. Oh and for the record he does get asked out by alot of ugly to semi decent looking chics.
So I guess i'm trying to ask who else has this problem? Does anyone know how to avoid "The Friend Zone"? and Whats up with girls and valuing friendship?
