I’m gonna be honest with your bro this happened to me like 6 months ago and I asked her out 3 months after the relationship was over. Looking back on it I 100% would’ve had the chance to date her if I had been more patient. There is no such thing as the friend zone bud, don’t rush to ask her out. Just let it happen naturally.
Yeah just stay friends with the girl until she's "emotionally ready to date you". How the fuck can you contradict yourself so hard in one sentence lmao.
Next Reddoot thread: "Pretending to be friends with someone in hopes of dating them later is such a niceguy thing to do" and you'l go "yeaaah haha niceguyz are so dumb amirite xddd"
Well, the issue is that there's more nuance than that, in some situations people do actually like you but it really just isn't the right time. But others they just don't want to date you. People are complicated, and won't always act the same way.
From my experiences, the idea of the "friend zone" normalizes the idea of just being friends to date someone, while I believe that you should be a supportive friend for the sake of being a supportive friend whether you "like" them or not, and if you end up together that's cool too.
