Why Did You Put Him In The Friend Zone?
He’s a great guy. He’s nice to you. You want the best for him. You might even think he’s a little cute. You may have even liked him a little when you first met.
But something happened along the way…
You put him in the friend zone.
You labeled him not “date-able.“
So what happened? What changed your mind? What was it about that nice guy you chose to never sleep with or only fool around a little? Did he smell bad? Are you good friends with his ex-girlfriend? Did you find out he was married three times already? Was he too short, too old, too cocky, too nice, too much of a joke?
I want the truth. The absolute truth under any circumstance.
(Even if you found out he was your second cousin!)
I’m giving you lots of choices below and if you don’t find the one you’re looking for comment below. It will only take you a few seconds but you can make a difference in the thousands of honest decent guys looking for answers. Help them break the cycle once and for all.
Show us guys the signs you saw in which you decided,
“Awww I’m sorry but we can still be friends.”

He was the most amazing friend, but he never asked me out.
It’s unfortunate when men fail to act for whatever their personal reasons are. I was that way myself and I had every excuse in the book to stop me from asking a (girl) friend out. And not many of them had anything to do with her. It was all just a way to spare me rejection.
It’s also unfortunate because when I was much much younger, I asked several women out. I was rejected in the most awful way. But that was in middle school and even elementary. It was before anyone was expected to act like a mature adult. But I still took the bad and good rejection very personal. It literally stopped me for many years into my adulthood from ever asking another woman out.
Did your amazing friend know you wanted him to ask you out?
Ahhhhhhhhh…………. sounds like its a friendszone thing to me!!! M was my most amazing friend ever. He never left my side and he was the perfect “boyfriend” without the physical chemistry. My advice is don’t change the dynamics of your relationship. Having him as your friend sounds like it means a lot to you. I will be honest I would rather have my friend back then the sad heartbreaking experience that became the end of us as Anything at all….. he could not handle it..
But listen to Peter, he really does understand human nature. : ) I’m not sure I would of been able to emerge from a lot of very heartbreaking experience without him…..
He is really good friends with my ex and I don’t want to hurt my ex or make things awkward.
he got me, we started dating (we were happy) but since he didn’t have a car, $$, or meet his own standards of what he should have as my boyfriend he wanted to take a break till he felt like he was better prepared and stable enough to be with me…its been 5 months now…and I see him differently. Not like the love of my life but as my bestfriend only now. He said he couldn’t take care of me but I wanted us to take care of eachother and he couldn’t listen now he wonders why I don’t look at him the same or smile at him the same way….I was happiest when he was happy to take a walk with me and hold hands…a fleeting feeling is gone now
Thanks for sharing Danielle. It truly sucks when a man misses a great opportunity because his “ego” or his belief that women need to be “tended” to get in the way.
