Why Do Men Keep Putting Me in the Girlfriend-
Zone?
You know now it ls, right. ladies? you know a guy for a while. You hang out
Mth him. You do fun things with lrntoplay video games, watch movies. go
hiking. go to concerts. You invite him to your parties. You listen to his
problems. You do all this because you think he wants to be your friend.
But then. then comes the fateful moment where you tmd out that all this
time, he' s only seen you as a potential _ And then if you turn him
down- he may never speaked you again. This has happened to me time
alter time: I hit it off with a guy, and for all that I' been burned in the
past, I start to think that this one might actually care about me as a person-
And then he asks me on a date.
I tell him how much I enjoy his company. how much I value his friendship. I
tell him that I really want to be his friend and to continue hanging out with
him and talking about our favorite books or exploring new restaurants or
making fun of theatre productions. But he rejects me. He
doesn' t answer my calls or : if we' d been making plans to do
something before this fateful Incident. these plans mysteriously tall to
T his is my I never get around to seeing the Hunger
Glamors movie. Not to name any names. but thanks a let. Torn.) Later, when
I run into him at social events, our conversations are awkward and
rt. This is because the moment we met, he put me in the girlfiend-
zone, and now he can' t see me as friend material.
I must say thatl find tns really unfair- I mean. I' m a nice girl. t have a lot
to offer as a friend, like not Being a douchebag and stuff. But males
just don' t want to be friends with nice girls like me. They can' t help
it, I gue es; we just new they' re wired, biologically. Evolution
conditioned our male hominid ancestors to seek nice girls as
mates and fem friendship Bonds only with the other dudes that
they hunted mammoths with. We true! know this because I
studied hominids in my science class.
So what' s the answer"? Should I take up in an attempt to
appeal to the friendship centers of men' s primal ? Should I
keep making guy blends" and then prevent them tram making a move on
me by subtly undermining their '? Should ajust give up on
those manipulative, powerplaying. bastards once and for all? I
don' t know I mean. I' d really like to have a true friendship with a guy
someday. but it' s so hard to st and respect them when they never say
what they meatland you never know when you might be relegated to the
Zone?
