What happens in the "Friend Zone"?
Absolutely NOTHING! Beware. If you don't know already, you will soon enough. It's like one of those glue traps for mice. It's hard to resist, but once you get stuck, there's no getting out. There's a reason why good friend's can't be lovers (at least not until mid 30s):
Women are like snot-nosed toddlers that wanna be spanked. If you are incapable of holding their attention for every SECOND, then you're toast. God forbid you should be boring for one day, because they will be history. They will sacrifice their children, friendships, family ties, and millions of dollars, just to chase someone/something that interests them. They don't wanna be nutured unless they're either playing you, starved for affection because they're social outcasts, or they get past their physical prime and they have shrinking options. I date a lot, but I personally find that I do not really like women as people unless they're WELL into adulthood. Ironically, the ones I don't treat well are the ones that are hard to get rid of, but that's not what I want. You have to play against yourself to win with women. I realize my opinion may be warped by my countless bad experiences with them, so I hope you guys can find a good one and keep 'em somehow.
I know a lot of guys associate "being friends" with a girl to not having a chance of nailing them. That is true some of the time (moreso in highschool, when neither guys or girls have any idea what the hell they're doing), but if you want it to last any length of time, you gotta be friends. Even if you find out the two of you don't click, you can still go on being friends. In short: Even if you don't win, you don't exactly lose, either.
