-There are many lessons here, earn them, learn them and gain experience.

-Grow up.

-Be aware that Friendzone doesn't exist. This only created by some male strange people that many times seemed they want more. It's immature.

-After wasting two years of your life battling with your imagination , you finally made one mature act in your life and you've got the result pretty quickly.

-Don't waste your life and time like this anymore.

-Know that relationship one sided doesn't work.

-Don't say anything and move on.

-Express yourself better, more mature, more confidential and more influential next time when such occasion occurred in your life.

I think you miss the point.  You are living under the fallacy that there is such a thing as the "friend zone".  That theory supposed that because you have certain feelings about someone they are obliged to reciprocate.  No one has that obligation.  Just because one person feels they are in love with another person , it hardly means that other person will necessarily feel the same way.

Dear Noah Urbany Noah,

As for your Q of what to say tomorrow, maybe there is no need to say a whole lot...if the subject comes up, perhaps just a shrug with a glance skyward...a soft smile at the complexities of life...

And yes, please consider whether you want to buy into the (currently trendy) concept of "friend zone." Friendship need not be a zone of confinement where someone often the guy gets 'stuck' and must try to break out...if it is not something wonderful in its own right then to consider moving on...

I had to Google "friend zone". I've seen it mentioned before, of course, but didn't have a clue what it meant.

Hi Dozy, yes to many people 'friend zone' is more and more a demeaning term...someone (often the woman) not fulfilling the friend's romantic needs, therefore the relationship is of less value.

Did you ever consider that perhaps she's just not interested in cultivating anything other than a friendship ?  If she's not interested, accept the fact and move on.

As for giving the note to your friend, just tell him you didn't know he was seeing the girl and you were not trying to disrespect him. As for the girl, she isn't interested. If she were, something would have happened before now. Time to move on.

I've been stuck in the friendzone for two years, and I finally tried to escape. I wrote her a page long note and gave it to my friend to see if I made any mistakes, but he forgot to give it back before he left. Finally, I decided to grow a pair and just ask, but before I could tell her how I feel, she told me she was dating my friend in secret. The one who had the note. He didn't know I liked her, so no dirt on him, but I don't know what to say tomorow. Advice?

That's the way I felt 40 years ago when I didn't see a car coming and I pulled out, head brakes and a horn and saw an angry face in my rear view mirror.

At the end of the street when he had stopped behind me, I make eye contact in my rear view mirror, put my hands up, and shrugged my shoulders.

That defused the situation and indicated it was entirely unintentional.

This is the verbal equivalent of what I did with that driver:

"Sorry about that, bad timing---I had no idea."

Move on. Way toooooooooo much nonsense and drama. You're adding to this nonsense.

Find a woman who is a friend, not one stuck in The Twilight Friend Zone. Stop contributing to this High School drama and just move on and find yourself the right woman.  OR

Take it to Jerry Springer.
