[Closed] Help needed! Getting out of the friend zone!

I'm now 100% convinced this is a troll. wellwellwell aka Ian has only been posting on STW for a week or so and this was his first thread. His latest post:

Well it got off to a rocky start, we went to [u]Santa Maria for pizza[/u] where one of the first conversations was about how her and her friends were having a discussion if men and women can do things together and not be on a date.

Then went to the [u]red lion for dessert[/u] before going shopping for presents for my nice. Then we [u]shared a crepe[/u] before I dropped her home.

It's a well known fact that only gayers or trolls have 2 deserts and I'm not even sure what type of person moves from a pizzeria to a pub for their first desert. 😀

If you'll never be more than friends; ask her if she would let her "friend" see her tits. At least you'd have something for the bank ,

I had a good friend as you describe.
I approached and we gave it a go, and we are still married after 20 years now.
So give it a go!

She said "No".

I would butcher from frozen with a circular saw

Don't make work. From frozen it's straight into the woodchipper for a good mulch. (Take any paper from pockets first as this won't shred).

Also calling this thread a troll until pics are produced.

I'd had this as a given, but as it does't fall into the usual aggro style. Rather it's produced some reasonable banter, good effort I thought.

Brilliant, do this. It's a win win situation, you might plant the idea of nooky with yourself in her brain. Or you might get some petty revenge by letting her know she's a regular down at the Palming Bank of Loneliness, girls love knowing you do that over them. HONEST GUV.

In the meantime, you're a free man, roll the dice elsewhere and see what comes up.

Just not, you know, with her flatmate or best friend. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything. Put it this way, if you want to make it far less complicated and ensure she never speaks to you again, it's certainly a winning tactic.

Houns has the correct answer.

If she has said no and you don't particularly want to spend the Christmas season painting your walls with a mix of semen and tears the only thing that will solve it is a nice, hot, frothy rohyppocino.

Or maybe, given the time of year, a rohypnog.

At least you managed to spell crepe correctly 😉

Please take the No as a final answer and [b]go off during the Christmas period and find yourself a lovely lady[/b].

To all the people who said [i]"She said no. Move on"[/i], tell us your secret then, how did you get everything you want in life?

Just curious.

This isn't about getting inanimate objects, or jobs, cars, houses or even qualifications... they can always be gained through hard work and graft. A woman is (theoretically) an intelligent creature, with a mind, wants and wishes of her own. Sometimes you simply can't change their mind and it's not worth wasting the time and effort for something that's impossible to obtain. So you move on. This only becomes apparent after a number of relationships/women etc. I don't think the OP will be moving on soon, he's got lessons to learn in this 'relationship' yet.

Shopping? What kind of wind-up is this thread?

Whatever happened to honest-to-goodness getting batfaced drunk out on the town?

Youth of today.

Sigh.

Give up and move on? Have you never watched any chick flicks, it doesn’t work like that at all.

OK, so you’ve been knocked back. What will happen next is this girl will get married to some sleaze bag, who whilst seemingly charming and successful in public, knocks her about a bit and kicks her back doors in. You’ll lose touch and drift apart. You’ll start a new life as a perpetual bachelor; you’ll have lots of nice female friends to go to shows with and you’ll probably share a flat with a slightly odd guy with a provincial accent. You’ll open a craft shop of some type overlooking a café so that you can gaze wistfully through your foppish fringe at the lovers who had a big enough set to ask each other out in less than 20 years of knowing each other.

5 years later, just as you are reaching the point of no return, Pringle sweater draped over the shoulders, taking the dog for walks on Hampstead Heath (you won’t actually have a dog) you will be getting on the tube when you bump into a young lady and knock her books all over the platform. You will both bend down to pick up the books and clash heads, at that moment you realise it’s the girl. You’ll go for a coffee (maybe some crepe action if you’re still into that sort of thing) and she will realise that you are soul mates after all.

The only spanner in the works is her husband, who just happens to be competing in a world championship MMA tournament in a few weeks’ time. You’ll meet some old Japanese guy, do some odd jobs around his garden which turns out to be perfect training for the almost lost art of ‘badger style’ kung fu. You will enter the tournament, you’ll take a bit of a pasting early on but somehow reach the final beating the husband using your new ‘bombers’ technique and run off into the sunset with the girl.

Bookmark this thread and come back in 6 years (7 tops) and say it isn’t so.

a few months later she'll be diagnosed with something nasty, incurable and terminal. She'll pop off a few days before Xmas so you'll eternally have mixed feelings about this 'special' time of year.

On her deathbed she'll tell you you're free and her greatest wish is you will find such love again.

You won't.

The other way is just to keep working at it and eventually they'll give in / get a restraining order taken out against you.....

Oh come on, I was trying to give the lad at least something to wish for, a chink of light in the dark, cold and lonely years to come. A hope and purpose for his forthcoming dismal existence and you go and give her bad aids.

On your head be it when he jumps of that railway bridge.

@OP - well at least you tried - she said no, you need to move on. I believe the term you straights use is "railing ruts and nailing sluts".

Alternatively, why not try the brown side? It's as easy as "Alright mate fancy a bang? Tidy" 🙂

Time to call time on this one and get yourself with someone else who does want to be more than just friends. Believe me, its much betterer.

**Wonders why you'd be wearing a helmet while out walking**

Because I have been told if OP jumps from a railway bridge, it's on my head.

Which one's you?

Yes, you can take your helmet off.

I'm getting old so I'm not up on modern euphemisms but that sounds great, well done you.

We women have been known to say no and mean yes, however it's usually around the age of 17, while tryiing to appear cool and playing silly love games.

Oooh get me an intelligent female 😉

*Grunt* Want female! Where female?

OP,

Don't worry about it. You may still like her and all that, but there are a lot of other women out there that may well be better*. On Friday, sit yourself down with a bottle of something that will kill at least 5000 brain cells (I find own label Tequila does the job) and get hammered. When your hangover clears, you should associate her with the pain of recovering from a lot of cheap alcohol and realise you can do without her.

Seriously, we've all been there.

* better meaning nicer, prettier, funnier or just more available.

[b]wellwellwell[/b] - Member
So I casually asked her if she thought that we could ever be more then friends. And she said no, and then she asked if I thought that and I said yes..... To which she replied that's really sweet.

[snip]

It felt almost the closet we have been even though she said no....

You didn't actually tell her how you felt. What you did was ask her first, ie "cold". What was she ever going to say, except "no" in that scenario.

Obviously none of us get to write a script like in the movies where every line is perfect but you needed to lead with something like, "I think we could be more than friends, I have a special feeling for you and I'd very much like us to be more than friends"
