Have you ever been put in the "friend zone"?
Have you ever been friends with someone, developed strong romantic feelings for them, told them your feelings and had them reject those feelings insisting on staying friends?
If yes, what did you do? and how did you feel?
Male or female?
Naylah, I'll take your answer as a no...
Calm down please :) I'm not blaming women when they aren't attracted to me. Just asking a question.

No one puts you in the friend zone but yourself.
If they rejected your feelings, and you still choose to hang around them, who's fault is that? Is she holding a gun to your head to keep you beside her when she's told you she's not interested?
No one owes anyone else reciprocated feelings. Just because you like her doesnt' mean she has to like you back. And vice versa.

Friend zone is silly. If you think you were put in a "friend zone" You were not. They didn't want a relationship with you. Chances are there was never any potential for one as this term suggests.
I've been rejected, sure. I moved on. Not often, but the examples that come to mind it was mutual anyways. It's important to consider that the best relationships do actually have a strong foundation in friendship.

I am a Female and No I have not been put in that predicament; however, I am guilty of doing that to several male friends. I explained that I would prefer a relationship of friendship and that I am not interested or ready for a romantic relationship with anyone, they seem to put it pass them, and now we have become very good friends. . . =>

two girls last summer. And we would spend a lot of time together. One got pregnant by a guy and had her second baby, she jokes around on her facebook with me still and calls me her husband. I know her boyfriend, its all kewl.
And the other one is my bestfriend. It really hurt when she friendzoned me cause I know shes smart very good looking and most would cut off their finger to be with her. She has a perfect body where anything she wears fits like a glove. Probably 115 pounds, 5 foot 8, average size breast, average butt, and a six pack to kill for with a face to die for and long black hair. And shes a stundent teacher and works a day care.
What did I do? I denied their friendship. I just waited to i felt i wanted to be friends with them. With brynne (the 5 foot 8 girl) it was easy to renew our friendship. We were truly friends, with liz, we were ok. She just liked attention so our friendship really is off and on.

I hate the term friend zone. You were rejected, get over it. Not every girl has to be attracted to you because you're a "nice guy". Were you ever attracted to a girl because she was just "nice"? Of course not, men just go for hot b*tches and complain they were "friend zoned", all the while ignoring some shy, mousy girl who was the real friend zoned one.

Never. I don't do friend zones.
