the friend zone….

So, have you had relationships that are with the opposite sex, but strictly platonic??  I have  had a few of those and although I’m only interested in friendship, they want a bit more.  I call it the friend zone and no mortal man has ever made it out of mine into the friends with benefits zone, or intimate zone. 

These are my guy friends with whom I have no sexual chemistry, but I love to hang with.  It would be great if you could change it, because they are awesome friends!  But, when it comes down to it, all I want is their friendship. 

Why can’t we have both?  What makes us sexually attracted to some people and not to others?  Is it that they know so much about us that they’ve just become friends?  Was there no attraction to start with?  Why do they have to like us more than we like them??  Are you tired of me asking questions??  hahahahaha.  So, back to the task at hand, (no pun intended) what is with this friend zone? 

I look at some of my guy friends, and think what great boyfriends they would make for someone, just not me.  What creates that sexual spark?  Sometimes I read about people who after years of being friends, realize they are soul mates.  WTF???  Maybe they just gave up and decided to give it a whirl before they get too old.  If the person has been around you for years, why haven’t you noticed??? 

 They write movies about this stuff all the time, where the “friend” is secretly pining for the other and giving them advise about how to deal with another failed relationship and one day, BAM, (usually in the rain) they kiss and it’s over.  Very when Sally met Harry.  How many times in real life does that happen?  Has anyone ever made it out of the friend zone??  Maybe it’s like a big, black hole….
