Oh no, my miserable life that’s devoid of any connection and anyone altogether otherwise *at least contains a friend.

What the fuck man, is this a real concern average people have that I’m way too fucking alienated to understand

Bit idea.

  1. Find people who think “the friend zone” is incel-speak for “when femoids won’t fuck me”.
  2. Find people who think “the friend zone” is just an emotionally ambiguous attraction.
  3. Put them in a thread and let them fight.

It would be so funny pain

Ambiguity over definitions is the lifeblood of struggle sessions

emotionally ambiguous attraction

It's kind of unfair to assume the person who said they aren't romantically interested is being "ambiguously attracted."

The people arguing from that perspective aren’t talking about relationships where someone’s been rejected or even necessarily would be rejected if they tried. That’s kind of my point. People are talking about very disparate things and calling them the same name.

Then that's also ambiguous and doesn't really do the concept/meme of "friendzone" as a bad thing many favors.

Giving this a bump because the extremes have widened.

It is now “the OP is mocking anyone who’s ever experienced unrequited love” vs “anyone complaining about this post feels entitled to women’s bodies”.

Post machine go brrrrr NOOOOO
