Ive found over a few years that more and more frequently im finding myself in the friendzone.
id often meet an attractive woman out and acquire her number and find myself over at hers or vice versa watching movies or going out for coffee etc.
The biggest sticking point was being able to overcome my lack of confidence and go in for the kiss to determine whether feelings were mutual or not.

More often than not i would actually not go for the kiss and by my own fault end up in the friendzone.
(nothing is more frustrating than that same girl then asking for advice from you on other guys)

Although the friendzone is the last place any of us want to be, ive seemed to find the silver lining of it.
its not all doom and gloom as i once thought.

Firstly, ill go into the type of women who ive befriended.
most are women that ive known for years, women i went to school with, both primary and high school and the notion of trying to put the moves on them having known them so long is very daunting so i never attempted it.

second are women that I've met, (as previously mentioned) that ive managed to friendzone myself with.

having said that, some of my best mates happen to be women.

The last few years ive found that most of my hook ups actually come from these women that friendzoned me, wingmanning me and hooking me up with their friends.

The way i see it , and they often explain to me, is if you have a target, and your wingwoman approaches them instead of a wingman, its deemed to be much more harmless and taken in a different light as opposed to a man making the approach.
they explain to me that women trust each other, to an extent.

so next time you find yourself stuck in the friendzone and cannot possibly get out of it, lap it up. play on it.
and use them to meet their friends and gain the trust and the circle continues.

Have any of you guys been in the same position and benefitted from the friend zone?

NEVER BE SATISFIED with being in the friendszone, if you are initially wanted to game the girl! You lost a game, and get a free coupon for an ice-cream?! And you are happy with that??!! This destroys your self-esteem for the next girl, and other next 100s girls.

Check the following factors and determine yourself why you are in the friendszone:
1. Escalate: did you escalate with every girl you meet? This takes courage, and you might fall. But it is all worth the risk. If you don't dare to escalate (there is a small window of opportunity), then you will put in friendszone.
2. 100% man: does the girl see you as a real man, with adventurous life, does what he wants (instead of what other wants), doesn't care what other think, has a plan, has many friends and enjoys life in the fullest??? If not, you are not even in the game!!
3. Mr. niceguy: do you always agree with girl, and try not to upset her? You always change your plan or agenda, to match up with her agenda? You carry her bag, buy her drinks, help her with anything? Then you are mr. nice guy. In your eyes, you think you are a valuable person to her. In her eyes, you are just someone that is handy.

No disrespect mate, but why are you so happy with a 'consolation prize', while you could win 'first prize'??? Or least compete for the first prize, instead of giving up before the game starts?
