- The friendzone is bull**** made up by rejected guys who can't come to terms with the idea that women aren't sex/date vending machines you put nice deed coins in.
I wanted to comment on this. I think the friendzone exists, and in BOTH sexes, but it's a bit more obvious with females. The reason it's obvious for females is because of the importance of their reproductive cycle, or downtime + risk involved with it. Biologically speaking women are more picky than men (this is proven by science, and you can even see it in the animal kingdom), because the risk involved with mating (getting pregnant), is much more of a hardship and risk for the women over the male. Men through out history had no risk for mating with as many mates as possible, no downtime, no chance of getting pregnant, and no need to care for anything until laws came into play. This is one of the many reasons men are typically the ones to purse women as well.
So, if you believe women are pickier, for the best potential off spring (which comes at a risk for their own life, and almost at the very least 10 months of their life anyway), then it makes perfect sense why women would "friendzone" a potential mate. It's because sometimes instinctively she knows she has better options for potential mates (which has a lot to do with immunities, google that too if you don't believe it, and again this all comes down to the best possible off spring). This means she may put a male less of those good gene qualities on the back burner because she thinks that she can get X, or will wait for X to pursue her.
Now, if that still makes sense to you, know that there is NOTHING wrong with a women (or male) friendzoning someone. There is nothing wrong with being as selective as you want, people have every right to be as picky as they want. I'm a little confused where this idea of men thinking they are entitled to sex came into play, friendzone never had anything to do with people feeling they were entitled. What it boils down to is that male is interested in you, and he wants to be more than just a friend. At this point it is entirely HIS responsibility to realize he may not have a chance, and IMO he should move on.
The complaining about friendzone from males isn't about entitlement, it's mainly about the women who actually do lead them on, or do use them while looking for someone better. I've seen it a million times... and I lose respect for the males who fall for that crap. So many dumb guys buying gifts and doing everything they can for a girl who plays tons of guys the exact same way.
