I really enjoy the company of other people, but recently I friend zone everyone for a number of reasons.
First of all, my own sanity!
I don’t think I can stand to have my heart broken again and because I’m an oddity people want to chat with me, date me and sleep with me.
The latter is mainly men but its women and couples as well. I realise that sounds conceited but its true.
After the last few relationships, friend zoning is also needed because in those relationships what happens in private and in public are two different matters.
I’ve been out with a few people whom in private would be all over me but in public wouldn’t even hold my hand as we walked down the street together, even in Manchester’s Village!!
Friend zoned in public
When I asked my girlfriend’s/boyfriends about this, I’m dumped or dropped into their friend zone with comments such as “You’re paranoid” or the classic “because!”. Because of what?
Secondly, I come across sometimes as quite guarded because of events in my past but, all I’m doing is protecting myself.
I am an extremely outgoing person and wear my heart on my sleeve and on occasions I might come across as overly friendly and this is usually when I meet someone, especially if I have a good relationship with them. However, I usually fuck it up because I friend zone them as I’d rather sit and chat that anything else. I’ve fucked up friendships because we took things to the next level and it ruined things!
Thirdly, on the flips side, I’ll also friend zone anyone who fucks with my emotions.
It’s hard enough to put myself into a frame of mind to start a new friendship or relationship and taking the piss is a sure fire way for me to ignore you.
I’m also getting too old for games.
I get treated like a fucking idiot sometimes and I’m actually very intelligent!
And don’t get me started on chasing people.
Fourthly, to some people relationships are a game. Really, too old for that as well.
Be honest, tell me your intentions and let’s crack on!
If you’ve got something to say, say it, and if you expect me to say something and I do, don’t be put out by what I say.
For me to say something however you’d have to be bloody special for me to put you anywhere else but the friend zone.
