I Kept Getting “Friend Zoned” Until I Learned These 7 Powerful Truths
Contrary to popular belief, it has nothing to do with being “nice”.
There was a time that I had more female friends than I knew what to do with, but I couldn’t get a date to save my life.
It happened every single time. I’d meet a girl I was attracted to, I’d start talking to her, get to know her, invite her out somewhere, and then somehow we became… friends. As in, no chance to develop a romantic relationship. She just didn’t feel that way about me.
None of them did.
As I’d collect these “friends”, I’d listen to their woes about how they’d get into a relationship with some loser who treated them horribly. They’d cry on my shoulder, wondering why they couldn’t find somebody to treat them right.
It infuriated me.
I had to wonder where I was going wrong. Why did this keep happening to me?
If you are too afraid to communicate your desires, you can’t fault others for not reading your mind, and you can’t get mad when they pick someone else instead of you.
