Nobody likes to be in the Friends Zone when they like the person they are friends with. A lot of men and women have trouble just saying how they feel about that one person that is there friend in fear that they will get turned down or things will change. Yes some times two people are only meant to be friends and other times they are meant to be something more. Have you ever been in the friend zone? For me I don't know if you could really call me and my husband being in the friend zone. My husband has been in the friend zone with many other girls just because he is a nice a guy but I think with me and him we where friends but not like the other girls. I think we knew maybe to some degree that we liked each other. We both knew we liked the other person but neither of asked each other out.

I used to like someone and I'm sure he liked me too. But it never turned into something romantic nor we even have the chance to admit or talked about it. It's awkward seeing him, I can feel he feels the same way. We kind of just left it out and it's funny to think about it now. One mistake I did is I put him in the Friend's Zone from the moment we've met. So next time if I really like someone, I'm not gonna make him feel that he can never be my most significant other.

Okay. Well the next time you feel something for someone and they are like a friend just ask them out. It's scare to but it's better to know where they stand and you stand so that way your not always wondering.

Right you only get so much time to live so you got to make the best of it. The worst that can happen is someone gets a no.

Yeah, I should probably do that. I'm not getting any younger hahaha. And that's true, there are times when I wonder how things might have turned out. It's better to be upfront and deal with the situation than try to hide it.

I have this problem a lot when I am thinking about getting with somebody, because I have to get to know people before I can start a relationship, and by the time I feel comfortable enough to tell them how I feel, they already just see me as a friend and nothing more, which can get very annoying. The guy who I am with at the moment and have been with for the past three years said that he didn't want to be with me at first because he wouldn't want to lose our friendship if something bad happened. But luckily he gave me a chance and we've been happy together.

But that puts you in the friend zone and it is a hard place to get out of. You don't have to start a relationship with someone to get to know them. That is what dating is for. Dating is learning this about the person getting to know them before your a couple or have even a relationship. Dating isn't for just couples.
