I can't stand the term "friend-zone." It's so stupid and wrong all around. I can't believe how stupid and annoying people are that things like this even become things.
1. it implies that being a friend is a bad thing. It's not.
2. it implies that once you're 'there', you're stuck there. You're not.
3. it's so obnoxiously arrogant, as though someone would even want to be your friend if you see things like that. he or she does not.
4. it implies that people who are in the friend zone are somehow less appealing, attractive, sexy than people not in "the zone." So very wrong.
Friends are the ones we should be aspiring to have relationships with. Well, now I'm getting ahead of myself. I guess everyone sees attraction and platonic friendship differently. Some people become friends with someone and can then become attracted to them. Some people, once they see you as a friend, can never see you as anything romantic. Some people, once they've been in a romantic relationship can never have any other kind of relationship with that person. For me, it doesn't matter what the relationship I have with you is: I either like you in a way where I'd want to date you, or I don't. That doesn't mean you have to be categorized and never move. I guess most people are pretty stupid, so they need to put people and things in neat little stacks that never change.
People who find this stuff asinine shouldn't try to assimilate. If it seems dumb and simplistic; ignore it because you can do better. If it makes a lot of sense...well, no judgment, but then by all means, you should stick to it and not deviate.
