If he getting tossed in the friendzone after you smash, then that says something about OP's "Loin Tendering" Skillset.... :hubie:

Ha, well wouldn't want to speculate on that, but what I am interested in is the use of friend zone.

It seems like a lot of words from like 20 years ago are still being used, but the definition is being pushed further and further, negatively.

For example, simping, a word that is used by straight up nerds who don't even go on dates, much less have 'casual sex', kids who are like 22 years old, but across the age range, are using to to describe ANY sort of interest or attraction. Simp, to me, like in high school was doing the most for someone who mostly wasn't even engaging with you at all.

Go on a date = simping

compliment a woman = simping

don't have sex on the first date = simping

calling a woman = simping

double texting a woman: simping

paying for dinner = simping

having sex more than once with a woman = simping

being in a relationship = simping


They are using it for anything and everything. And so for friend zone, that used to mean, if a woman 'liked' you, called, texted, went out, but would not sleep with you. I wonder if that is another term where the context has been totally collapsed.

I equate friendzone nowadays to having a more negative connotation. So everything you stated about it, with the added caveat that the women doing the "friendzoning" are not approaching it with genuine intentions. The newly anointed "friend" is just a resource and outlet for emotional and financial support.

Right, it was never positive, but the scope seems to have shifted lol

wasn't the primary issue of the "friend zone" someone that you hadn't had sex with, but wanted to? but who wouldn't sleep with you, but would talk, or go out, or complain to whatever?

Does it now include someone you used to date or sleep with/both, who you are still in touch with, but don't sleep with anymore?

I realize that none of these words are exact, and have different definitions, but they write about this kinda shyt in the NY Times now.

This falls under that umbrella of comical things in dating where people are petrified of having their feelings hurt and so avoid any sort of definitive conclusions and keep things purposely vague. Any thing that may expose you to being human and the spectrum of emotions that entails specifically the negative ones create these nebulous complexities....... because in truth you see exactly what that girl and many others male or female are doing in the situation above: that friendzoned person became the emergency, contingency, contingency, emergency plan should the day arise that the spectre of getting old alone appears...
