DAY 71 - The "Friend Zone"

Yesterday I wrote about how the topic of the "friend zone" seemed to have, coincidentally, destroyed friendships. It all started with me saying that it didn't exist and then it all went downhill from there. Thinking on said topic, I found it interesting enough to write about it, so here we are.

I suppose the first thing to do is define the "friend zone." What is it? It's the situation when one person in a platonic relationship with another person wants to turn it into a romantic relationship, but the other one does not. The concept is nothing new; it's the idea of unrequited love. The term itself seems to have become more popular over the years though, especially with the widespread use of memes every and anywhere nowadays.

So what's the big deal about the "friend zone"? Guys complain about it all the time, about liking a girl and being nice to her and she never ends up reciprocating with a relationship or whatever.
