Hi y'all,
Today's post is about that relationship everyone has in their life, but struggles to talk about: the permanently friendzoned friend.
First things first, how do you know you have that permanently friendzoned friend?
Easy, it's the person you look at like a brother or sister.
How do you explain your relationship to others?
This is the tough one because it seems like no one understands why you won't date the person! I always go with the answer "we're better off as friends"... which I often truly believe!
How do you know it's the right move to friendzone or be in a relationship?
Well, let me put it to you like this, if you always want the person around friendzone them. If the possibility of losing them as a friend terrifies you, then it's probably best to friendzone. Should your relationship not work out, it could be very hard to go back to "just friends".
Is it ok to friendzone someone?
Absolutely! Even though this is coming from the person who basically friendzones everyone, it's totally ok!
Is the friendzone a bad place to be?
No! Here's the thing, you really have two options once you've been friendzoned . Option A, being friends or Option B, not being friends. You can easily take yourself out of the friendzone by not talking to the person anymore.

This is a fun but different post.
I have definitely friendzoned my fair share of people but didn't realize that was the case until afterwards.

Best to be honest + say you're better off friends than give someone the wrong impression. x Nicole | www.changeanddress.com

I had lots of friends in high school that everyone questioned why I didn't date them...they were just that good friend, you don't want to mess up a good friendship! Permanently friend zoning is the perfect solution ;)

What an interesting post! Definitely opened my eyes, as I've never thought that deeply about friend zones!

This is hilarious- I've friendzoned so many people without realizing it after the fact. It's often always better to remain as friends anyway

I actually don't have many (true) friends of the opposite sex. I always wish I did but I almost always end up dating them or we never become THAT close. The friend zone has always been a super interesting concept to me though (:
What an interesting post, friend zoning is definitely a thing that has unexpectedly happened to me!

I friend zoned tons of guys in high school! But it's fine because when I think about dating them, I shudder!
Agree with this completely--I've always turned down people that I want to be friends with! For me, the friendship is more important, solid, and reliable than a romance.

Agreed! Sometimes it's better to be friends. And it's helpful to have friends of the opposite sex.
Such a cute post! I have definitely been on both ends of the friendzone conversation... it sucks, but life goes on!
