“Friend Zoned”

I have a new perspective on this.

Back then, I would always hate the friend zone. Once I would assume that I was this said zone, I tend to feel so low of myself. I always ask my self questions, like “What am I not doing?” or “Where did I go wrong?”

I just hated it. Being the kind of person, who would always be “just a friend”, I got sick of it. It was a place I was always at, and a place I imagined myself in for the rest of my life.

The I minute I get “friend zoned”, my mind starts racing, and starts to think of scenarios to get myself out. And really, it is not healthy. So much expectations and high hopes really won’t become a reality. You must know what I’m talking about. Like “Oh yeah, he/she is just a brother/sister to me!” or maybe “Hahahaha! We going out?! That’s funny!”

It’s a terrible feeling really. But to be honest, being friend zoned is kind of a blessing. Hear me out. If we really like the person, let them be. Let them figure it out. Don’t go too crazy about your feelings. All you need is that special chemistry with someone; along with timing. Maybe it’s just that special chemistry with that person, to let him or her fall for you as well. Who knows what could happen?

The point is, the friend zone isn’t that bad. Rather than actual date, build the friendship. Being “just friends” can just be plain awesome.

“When I stopped viewing girls as potential girlfriends and started treating them as sisters in Christ, I discovered the richness of true friendship.”
