8 Reasons Why You Got Friendzoned

We’ve all been there at some point. You meet a girl, become genuinely interested in her, get to know her better. Time goes by and you two create a bond. Then you try to make a move and she says she’d rather just be friends. Where did you go wrong?

Well, here’s a bunch of points where you went wrong.

You’re Boring

There’s a few subtle cues about how you can know you’re boring in the other person’s eyes. Do you often keep quiet when you hang out because you want it to be all about the other person? That just looks like you have nothing to say. Are you always the one that texts first to hang out and spend time together? That just looks like you have nothing to do. Now what do we call someone that has nothing to say and nothing to do? Exactly.

You’re a Smoker

To non-smokers, this is one of the least attractive things you can do. We all have bad habits, but not every bad habit needs to have an impact on your romantic relationship the way things like smoking, gambling, heavy drinking, etc … do. The least you can do is acknowledge it’s annoying and say you want to stop eventually. Maybe one day you’ll even mean it, too.

Relationship History

I know we try to call it slut shaming so we’d feel bad about the people that raise an eyebrow at people that have had quite a tumultuous relationship history, but the fact remains that some people will and that’s entirely their right. Think of it as a resume, where companies are going to be less likely to hire people that switch jobs every other year.
