This has happened since i started high school. if theres someone i like, i try to let them know, but within a couple weeks, we are heaps good <i> friends</i>. im not sure if this is a bad thing, but when someone is in your "friendzone" you arent really attracted to them as much, even though you "hang out" with them more. is it possible to <i>unfriendzone</i> someone, or would that just make things bad?

I've never once seen anyone escape from the friend zone. Is it possible? Oh, maybe in some distant galaxy somewhere...

Once you let someone know you like them, you can decide not to act like a friend towards them - you keep being nice, kind and funny but you do not allow them to treat you like "just another friend" and (expecially!) to cry on your shoulder about their unrequited love for someone else.

 

Of course you'll have fewer opposite sex friends this way, but you'll probably feel less frustrated.
