    No.

    The friend zone is a bullshit fabrication of men who seek a relationship with a female but lack the confidence to be forthright about it or otherwise won't make a damn move. If you are straight with a girl and outright tell her you're interested, there is no way -- no way -- for her to place you in a limbo between friend and lover for long. Eventually, you're going to be one or the other. If she says she's confused and opts to keep you hanging with nothing, then she's being neither a friend nor considerate. If she says she just wants to be friends, she's not friend zoning you, she's telling you she just wants to be friends. It's not a hard concept.

    And yet dudes act like it causes them oh-so-much misery. The human language is a pretty convenient device -- a person can articulate his or her feelings pretty darn well. Keeping this in mind, let's look at how someone can handle this.

    The object of your affection just wants to be friends and you're not satisfied with that.

    How about you let her know and proceed to keep your distance until you can be satisfied with it. If she really was willing to be a friend, she'll understand. If not, you're better off.

    You can't bring yourself to express your feelings.

    That's not her fault. If you can't man up and say something without her making the first move, that's your problem. If you're in this "friend zone" and that's not fine by you, then consult the above scenario.

    And third...wait. Nope, that's it. No one is forcing you to hang around, and if they are, you're in no sort of friendly relationship. Stop being so petty, because the friend zone doesn't exist and you're hurting yourself by believing it does.

    I am stating, that one of the problems with society is the Reverse Sexism rule that some what occurs. While some problems such as Female Body = sex persist still, I am equally angry at one of the other media graces. This is that the man needs to initiate romance. ((Another problem of society: If the woman initiates a romance, she's considered a Harlot.)) What I was trying to state, is that the problems of men who are more shy and don't feel confident and worry about complicating things. The tangent was about how the Gender Expectations, while favoring males for certain, does still have problems on both sides. Those of us who feel that women being equal, deserve to be treated the same as men in other ways.

    This is another reason why I DESPISE sports like Softball. The ONLY reason I don't protest the sport whenever I can, is because it is actually anatomically easier for women to throw under handed. While it is anatomically easier for males to throw over hand. However, it still bugs me that the rules for the sport, the field sizes, ball sizes, are all changed. Alas, I'm on another tangent about equal rights still being hypocritical in it of itself.

    I am not above society. I am OUTSIDE society. Do keep in mind, I am quite jealous of many of the wonderful trends that I can not really part take in. However, I can observe the stupid flaws of society as well. As such, I prefer expansive knowledge in order to try to comprehend society in the best way possible. This is actually so I can try to integrate myself in a meaningful way into society so that I can hopefully some day be happily married. Either that, or I'll get lucky and a confused lesbian will end up raping me thinking I'm a girl with a strap on.

    Final notes... Sheesh... Comea says I'm a debating bull dog. Zooey just thrashes me in debates. She's the bulldog of the Space Pirates... However, Exodus is still scarier.

    I suppose that is true. However, some of us are less confident because we are attempting to maintain clear air and a gentlemen behavior around girls we like. Especially when, we are scared of being rejected. Sometimes, the fear of what could be is greater than man can overcome. Regret and Guilt, are far deadlier weapons than Shame. That is a lesson well demonstrated in the Scarlet Letter.

    As far as being too intimidated to actually ask them out, Fair enough. You are right at that point. However, still in common society standards, it is commonly seen as the mans job to ask the woman out. Also the mans job to propose to the woman. Many men are scared by this notion and wish for the women we like to help us overcome this fear. However, the likewise fear is held in the notion of shame for women.

    That's not being a friend...that's being a bitch.

    also, on the gay topic, all my friends think I'm gay because whenever they use gay to say something is bad (e.g. That lesson was gay) I say "What's so bad about being gay?"
     
  10. Now I know you're all boys, but could we maybe drop the fucking gendered insults, pretty plox?

    *sigh*

    This reminds me of a Quote I read online once.

    Good boys want a Good Girl to act Bad just for them.
    Good girls want a Bad Boy to act Good just for them.

    I sadly don't know the author of this quote. There is a shred of truth to this statement. ((However, its very stereotypical and not a quote I'd like to follow.))

    Nah. I think she mistook my using the word "bitch" as an insult against women specifically.

    You know, I can agree to that. I was more vented and angry at how they were changing her. I liked Karma because she was Unique in her outfit. She didn't follow the media trend with female video game characters needing to be over revealing in their outfits. And that her new outfit, was just taking someone who stood against the trends in a noble way and just... Removed her personality kind of.

    As far as being a b1tch, that's kind of a dick move on her part. However, at least he doesn't have to worry about the fears of what could be now that he has the reality of the situation.

    The world map is called DatLag... though I'm not sure it's the right one because it didn't ask for a password
     
  20. Oh rofl :rofl: , I thought that was some kind of snarky play on words. Maybe I'm reading too deeply
