The infamous friend zone of society?

The infamous friend zone. A barren, desolate place in dating society, is it not? Unfortunately, it is so. And so, being a citizen of the friend zone, I decided to fully understand and read more about the friend zone.

Stumbling along in my Google search, I came to this article, given below, that somewhat expresses what I think of the friend zone. But I wonder how many people agree with the article?

So give me your opinions about the below article. Besides that, tell me your opinion about the friend zone and tell me if you have been stuck in the friend zone? I'd like to hear everyone's experiences.

    I personally believe the "friend zone" is more about physical appearance than anything else. It's like you're completely compatible with the other person, but either they're not attracted to you, or you're not attracted to them.

    I've never been on the bad side of the friend zone, but a girl I'm really good friends with has a thing for me. She's cute, but she just doesn't do it for me appearance wise. I wish she did because she's an amazing person.

    I don't completely buy the "he/she is too nice" or "not enough of a challenge" argument. If two people are physically attracted to one another and compatible, those arguments become pretty weak.

    Oh my god, that was the truest thing I have ever seen. No joke. Wow, just wow.

    Yes, I have been there before. Many times. I dare say I'm in the "friend zone" with every girl I know. Oh well, that's what I get for being a nice guy.

    The one i remember most was with this one girl (not gonna say her name over the internet), who was dating a jerk 4 years older than her who lived halfway across the country. It was pathetic. She and I both knew how bad of a guy he was, but being the good friend I am, I didn't say a darn thing about him. However, she knew darn well what I thought.

    Anyway they break up (she wont say why even to this day) and I'm estatic. My patience has finally paid off. Sadly, I had already ventured too far into the "friend zone" and to make a long story short she hooks up with her ex before I get a legitamate shot to ask her out. It sucked.

    They're dating to this day, and after 2 years she has yet to realize how much of a jerk her ex is. It's pathetic.
