Do you think friend zone is a real life problem, or just some exuse made by guys who are not so successful with woman? I mean yes i can imagine that your crush handle you as a friend, but why don't you take the step? You are the guy, i know we are out of middle ages, but you should make the first step anyway. So no offense guys, i'm absolutely sure that some of you really have a pretty bad situation, but for the rest of all, i think they should start thinking about it. Am i really wrong?

That's might be a good thing. Although, on some men, it really can turn out as a friendship. Or is it true that friendship-love is possible, but never in the other way?

I think the friend zone is a womans way of being nice. If a woman is giving you the "friend" treatment take the hint it is our way of not trying to hurt a nice guys feelings. It is a simple fact that women will not be attracted to every nice guy they meet just like men are not attracted to every nice woman they meet. Some times we really do just want to be friends. Putting a guy in the friend zone is not the same thing as playing hard to get and the two things should not be confused. If a girl treats you like a best friend then chances are that is all she truly wants you to be.

Aha is that the friend zone. Well then I can only agree with you. If it feels like that (a zone) you can count on it that she is not interested. So no need to be the guy/man and ask her. Unless you want to get rid of her as a friend. I never give speeches like that (we are just good friends blah blah) either. Why should I? I think my (male) friends know very well what I want or not. Not one of them would ask me for a relationship.

I'm not too sure, because I don't have much experience with this, however, I think usually this so called friend zone is an area in which it's pointless to make any steps. Usually, being in the friend zone means the person is trying to nicely hint that though they are okay with hanging around you and being your friend, they don't want to go any further. But really, you should either take a leap of faith and make that first step regardless of the fact that you are almost definitely going to face rejection, or just move on. Staying love struck over somebody, using the whole friend zone thing as an excuse to do nothing yet remain stuck under their spell is just a stupid waste of time. You should actually do something, let it be attempt to push things forwards, or just giving up entirely.
