You start trying to work your "magic" on a chick, you take it slow to avoid accusations of just trying to get laid, and the next thing you know. BAM. You're stuck on the sidelines while she's hooking up with some other prick. Welcome to the friend zone, looks like I'll be here for eternity.
Let us be 100% clear here. The friend zone being the area you don't wish to be in when you want to get with the gutterskanks right? Lets be honest. You use the term "friend zone" to imply you want to be "in her pants" instead of in her head or heart. Just checking. Last time I checked, quite a few of my male friends had their own lives and did appreciate my companionship as a friend. They only use "friend zone" when their attempts to score are quashed by the defensive tactics of such elusive creatures as CHEMISTRY and DYNAMICS. Bear with me here. I am asking for elaboration and understanding in a thread that appears to be aimed at justifying one's hostility to lack of better reasoning than the fact that it is all the woman's fault. Who knows, maybe it is. Maybe it just isn't meant to be. Maybe you're chasing tail that should just be left alone anyway. Why do you even WANT these women if they are just dumb bitches that seek men that will cheat on them? That would reflect most poorly on your choices and judgements because obviously, they are what they are.

We have not been formally introduced. I'm Barb. I wander in every now and again. I am here to offer no practical assistance as your request is more of a rant and less of a productive excerise in learning the limits of human dynamics and relationships. I offer no justification or closure for your experiences but can dole out some nuggets of past intrigues that may have at some point swayed me from the romantic view of a man to ousting him to the much talked about "friend zone." Just as much as a man can start out as sexually appealing, he can end up falling brutally short of the mark when it comes to how right he is for us. Even a good shag and a padded wallet can't save him then.
Also into consideration, I have men that have been dependent on ME for finances and they rarely pay for things. Regardless of whether or not they have money, the sense of entitlement of SOME men (I said some, you fantastically sensitive juggernauts of the e-world) have in the presence of a woman that has her own 6 figure salary leaves their tails wagging like some of those housewives on reality television. Honestly I can tell when a man is going to be a leech based on how he lives. If he seems to have a somewhat nomadic existance I can immediately tell he is going to piggyback onto the main vein of my success, move into MY home, drive my cars, ride my motorcycles and clean out my fridge. Tried and tested. This does not make you any sexier than that fucking bullshit whining about how we never want a nice guy. Show me a real nice guy and I will show you a man that does not throw in the face of sincere women the term "you got what you deserved for dating that bag of dicks."

Guess what sweet nuts. As much as you want to hear it, we do not seek out the men we will stuff into the friend zone because they are too nice. I have some friends that are "Too nice" who happened to end up with equally nice women. I also have a few super nice men with money that ended up with bitchy women that they REALLY wanted and now can't stand. Guess what, peaches. Odds are, your dream girl is setting up to be your worst nightmare in some cases. This is just how it is. A friend is a friend and a supportive person in your general vicinity. Your friends are supposed to be approachable, honest, open, objective, mindful of your goals but still push you to want more for yourself. Your lover should possess many of the same characteristics. Except that you should be attracted to them and want to prove your loyalty to them by agreeing to be monogamous. Fine lines, my friend. Fine lines.
A relationship is not an easy feat by any stretch of the imagination. It requires a lot of work and commitment in addition to a solid foundation that consists at least of some parts similar goals, attraction, sexual compatibility, fiscal responsibility... It isn't all romance and flowers. Yes, I have some male friends that badger me wondering why we never "Went there." I always have to be the bad guy saying that it just "isn't there." We don't force you to fuck fat chicks or the queen of halitosis. I'm not saying you're not scoring because you are a troll but you have to understand that we're not going to jump on a guy that does nothing but whine about his prospects and then insist that we suck because we won't just try to date someone that isn't OUR type. Now how is that fair? If you could just "date anyone" why are you badgering the women that don't want you in that way? If you find that you cannot be friends with someone, boot them out of your life and find a girl you want to be with. Honestly, the old adage to love the one you're with is a little overrated and it is only a matter of time before you would end up cheating on some girl that entirely loves you because the opportunity presents itself to fuck the girl you REALLY want. And you can't tell me I am wrong either. You won't stay with some sweet little girly when the woman you fantasize about changes her mind and wants to rock your cock to the fucking moon. Come on.

Then they run off to the asshole who probably just wants to dive deep into their pants, take what they can grab, and fucking run off to some gutter skank whose been fucked more times than is humanly possible. What the hell is up with this growing trend of rejection and stupidity!
Then stop putting yourself in the position to be rejected. We don't want the confrontation. We just don't. Nothing good has ever come out of your declaration and outpouring of feelings. Not because women are all cunts but because they simply may not feel the same way. Perhaps some women fuck up by letting men off the hook a little too easily when they should be more abrupt. Nothing can be gained from pussyfooting around the truth either.
On the flip side, not all men leave those girls to pursue some other gutterskank. Relationships run their course. So will your patience for some whiny lollipop that is not only needy but pushes the limits of your own tolerance. People become less attractive when they let weaknesses and insecurity plague them. It chews away at your psyche and presents itself in the displays of supercilious vitriol you see in some of the above posts. Honestly, what do you want out of a relationship? You have to truly know what you want before anything else will ever truly work out. Sounds like you are dealing with younger women as well. Hope it gets better for you but you may want to start by complaining less and trying to find out where it is that you are coming up short. I can guarantee it has nothing to do with you being "too nice" to girls. Trust me.
