She "friend-zoned" me, I suggested no contact for a while.

This girl I've been talking for about 2.5 months "friend-zoned" me recently. We go to the same school, but we met through a dating site. Thought things were going very nicely from the beginning. Kiss on the first date, then we started being more flirtatious with each other, a lot of kissing, cuddling, etc. Then about 2.5 months into it, she decided to friend-zone me because she supposedly "didn't get over her ex, and something really bad happened to him, and now she doesn't feel like dating anybody." We initially agreed to try this "platonic friend" thing at first, but I told her after a few days that I couldn't really do it. She wants to talk to me all the time, but I suggested to her that we stop seeing/talking each other for a few months and see how we feel about each other then because we are obviously not on the same page. Maybe we'll decide to go on date again. Maybe we'll be friends for real. Maybe we will find ourselves not being on the same page again. Who knows. She agreed to do so very reluctantly.

 

I usually don't feel that hurt when a girl decides to "friend-zone" me because I usually find a reason to hate the person and move on quickly. However, I really like(d) this girl as a woman and as a person and having a pretty hard time forgetting her. I think I've gotten to know her fairly well, and she has many great qualities. Haven't quite felt this way in years to be honest.

 

If we are really meant to be I believe she'll come around. Did I do the right thing? I think I did. I think a period of no contact will allow me to attempt to move on and make her miss my presence in her life.

 

Please share your stories about going NC and how things turned out!

I got bad news for you buddy, if you haven't slept with her after 2.5 months I seriously doubt you will sleep with her.

 

You were friendzoned / cuddlebitched 2 weeks in i'd say.

 

NC is the only hope.

For you.

Forget this one.

 

Time to get out there & meet other women & practice escalating so you you only waste a few weeks instead of a few months trying to figure out if a woman is attracted to you or not.
