{Sometimes, you find yourself in a situation where you feel you have something really good going on with someone you like a lot, and they seem to like you back. But for some reason, you guys just cannot get past the friendship stage of that relationship, and you can\u2019t understand why. If you\u2019ve found yourself in such a situation, it is very possible that you have been friend-zoned.}<\/p>\n
Simply put, the friend zone is a place where people put persons that they like, but not enough to have an intimate relationship (affair) with. So, it\u2019s not really that they do not like you; it\u2019s just that they\u2019d rather have you as a buddy than anything more. There are millions of people who are in the friend zone without really knowing it, and I think that it is quite strange because it isn\u2019t that hard to tell. <\/p>\n
The handwriting is always clear when someone is sending you into the friend zone, so if someone misses it, maybe it\u2019s because they just don\u2019t want to come to terms with the reality. But then, that is just what I think. Maybe not everyone is a quick thinker. Lol, just kidding. Check out some of the signs that suggest you\u2019re (being sent) in the dreaded friend zone.<\/p>\n
{{1. YOU ARE THEIR LOVE DOCTOR}}<\/p>\n
If they always bring their relationship problems to you for advice and help, it is very likely that you have been friend-zoned. When someone likes you, they do not give you the slightest hint that they\u2019re seeing someone else.<\/p>\n
{{2. THEY TALK ABOUT OTHER GIRLS OR GUYS WITH YOU}}<\/p>\n
If they are comfortable enough to talk about their boyfriend or girlfriend or a love interest around you, it is because they have no interest in dating you whatsoever. So, please, move on.<\/p>\n
{{3. THEY CALL YOU \u2018BROTHER\u2019 OR \u2018SISTER\u2019}}<\/p>\n
Unless you\u2019re actually siblings, they shouldn\u2019t really address you with the aforementioned titles. So if they do, it\u2019s probably because they see you as one\u2026and you know what that means.<\/p>\n
{{4. THEY ARE NOT SHY TO GET DRESSED (OR BE SEMI-NAKED) IN YOUR PRESENCE}}<\/p>\n
This is mostly true for women. Most women have no problem being in just their underwear around someone they do not like intimately, but guys usually do. So if you\u2019re a guy, and there\u2019s this one girl you like, and you\u2019ve not had anything intimate, but she\u2019s very comfortable wearing just her underwear or dressing with you around, you\u2019re probably nothing more than a homie to her.<\/p>\n
{{5. THEY AVOID BEING ALONE WITH YOU}}<\/p>\n
If they are always down to hang out with you when other people are involved, but tend to shy away from it when you want to be alone with them, it\u2019s probably because they don\u2019t want to be in a situation where something intimate might happen between you both, and that is obviously because they don\u2019t like you like that.<\/p>\n
{{6. THEY KEEP GOING ON AND ON ABOUT HOW \u2018NICE\u2019 YOU ARE}}<\/p>\n
Compliments are good, but when they come in certain manner, you should be worried. Lol. If your love interest keeps going on and on to both you and her friends about how nice you are as a person, it\u2019s because you are seen as a nice friend or probably a tactic to stop you from making any intimate moves.<\/p>\n
So, those are some of the ways you can tell someone has been put in the friend zone. If you\u2019re a victim of these, don\u2019t take it too hard, just dust it off, and move on to the next!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
