The absolutely best explanation of the friendzone - and it's by a woman.

See women want the guy they like to be distant and act like he could care less about them.
It's hard for me to do that though :(


She is frankly shallow and a bit of a muppet. Please don't lump me in with her.

I'd see being distant as uninterest and therefore not worth my time


I'm confused. Which is it is being distant good or is being clingy?

Why irgnore texts if able to answer.
I'm not good wit all these mind games expect d of guys :cry:

Sorry I never meant to lump you in with anyone.


There aren't mind games expected of guys.

We just want people who aren't either of the 2 extremes. Just do what works for you. Some girls like clingy some like distant. You can't make yourself an ideal to women because no such thing exists.

I personally like being cuddle and hanging out with my partner but also enj9y time to myself while my friend likes to spend time away from her partner. She still lives him but it's what works for them.

I never understood this wait to respond cr**. Although I do try to follow the no more that 2 texts immediately after each other. But that's more because otherwise I don't give the chance for someone to respond.

Doesn't seem to be a middle ground between distant or clingy
I like to be around my love a lot and text her through out the day?
Why is that considered clingy :(
I like time to play my games or read we. Add that to the 10-12 hours I'm at work or transit to work and it doesn't leave much time. Probably only one day a weeek to see her in person.

I dont know I get excited when I get text from the lady so I tend to reply right away :cry:

That is in no way clingy. You are worrying too much about it trust me.

My fiance texts me on every break he gets at work and always calls me after. It's the same with many couples I know. In fact one a week is definitely not clingy in the slightest, she will probably want to see you more ;)
