Have you ever turned someone who friend-zoned you into a fwb? (Serious)
- Thread starter Exellus
- Start date
Yes but only after a large amount of time passed, can't say it was an intelligent move on my part in retrospect. Life is short, you can form way more meaningful relationships if you move on and stop wasting your time doubling down on lousy ones that are one-sided.
Only my first long term girlfriend. It was years later after we were out of high school.
I usually just move the fuck on. Don't waste your and her time OP. If it happens, it'll happen organically. Just keep doing your thing and move forward.
Also as a 33 year old I no longer believe in "friend-zoning". It's a pretty juvenile concept.

I'm sure it's happened but my very loose rule of thumb is that if she doesn't like you within like 2 weeks at most, it's isn't happening.
It's possible, OP, but if you want it to happen you both need to be part of your local music scene or work in the restaurant industry. Or both ideally.
Now this, yes.
Now this, yes.
Yes? Got rejected this one time, but she told me only because she isn't into dating but does want a good fuck here and there, and we left it like that for 6 months. She liked that I was ballsy enough to ask out someone 8 years older than me.
are you asking for advice to try to 'convert' somebody's opinion of you, because if so that's fucking garbage, move on and leave them alone.
Well, "friendzone" is pretty much a teenage/college term for "I like hanging out with you but I have zero interest in a physical or romantic relationship with you" which can happen to anyone. Sometimes you just don't see someone in that way, and that's fine.
So you're asking "can I get someone who has no interest in a physical relationship with me to sleep with me?" That's not going to happen. Don't force the issue and move on.

It can happen.
Having said that OP:
You should not live your life expecting it to happen.
You should not suggest, even in a joking way, to the person who you like.
Live your life and move on with your feelings. Especially since friends with benefits is supposed to be about only sex not feelings.
The fact that you even used the term friend zone makes me think you don't have the emotional maturity for such a relationship even if it was an option.

Of course. It's like converting a second baseman to a shortstop, or outfielder. I'd never call them a utility player though, that will get you a slap in the face.
Friend zone doesn't exist.
Me and a friend are currently discussing if it's something we'd be willing to try out.

It's more like the Phantom Zone but instead of Lex Luther or bad guys you're just there with decent people who want to see you happy.
Do you think supervillians are fwb? Serious question.
You could get real kinky with some villains. What all those extra arms do zaddy Doctor Octopus?
"Turning them into" -- yeah that's a user's way of thinking. You want to have sex with them and you want to figure out what you need to do to accomplish that? How far are you willing to go?
You need to grind harder. Whether I'm talking about grinding for exp, or literally grinding harder on your love interest, that's left for personal interpretation.
Confused by people saying the friendzone is "made up" or "not real". Arent all words? Yes it comes from a place of sexism and Im not defending people who use it, but shouldnt people be making that argument rather than saying its "not real"? Genuine question, I simply dont understand.
