Normally I would be obliged to side on the topic of the "Friendzone" but after supposedly being through it so much, it's not as prominent as people think. I've always thought I was friendzoned a lot for years, but I noticed that it wasn't really that; it's how you convey the message of your feelings to the person you have a crush on. Guys who say they are in the friendzone are most likely watching from afar and thinking every little interaction, no matter how useless or minimal, is something momentous and it means something in the long run. It doesn't. Unless you're talking with the girl on a regular basis, getting to know her, "softly" flirting, and anything related to such, you're not getting anywhere. Obviously there are the rare cases where the guys are very nice to the girls, they know a lot about each other and they're comfortable with each other and they get "Friendzoned" which is horrible, but all that says is that the guy wasn't able to get his feelings across. That's the point of subtle flirting. It gets a message across to the girl that they can grab and say "Oh, this guy might be interested in me. Let's keep talking to him and see how it goes from here". And there's also the question of "types". Some guys are girls just don't match. It all depends on if you can compliment the one you want to be with. There are specific personality traits that adhere to each person and that are pertinent to the possibility of a relationship. You just have to find the person whom you feel comfortable enough to talk to, get to know, and realize that she has a lot of traits that compliment yours.
