You saved that little birdie's life.

You're both missing the point.

If a girl friendzone/brozones you, you still have a purpose in her life.

You are her friend or bother unit and you need to respect that, relish in it, and keep her in your life.

Just because she doesn't wanna bang you doesn't mean she has no use in your daily life.

Not if you're just going to be miserable pining after her. You can't just turn that **** off, so it's best for you if you just stop torturing yourself and put some distance between you... AFTER YOU'VE MADE YOUR PLAY!!!

I've experienced this with men I've had a major smitten feeling for (but have wanted nothing to do with me) and while you're correct, it's not nice to make a bold move with someone who's made their intentions clear.

I definitely see where you're coming from, and while I never condone anyone doing something to someone else without their consent, it sucks being friend-zoned. I think girls tend to think it's a nice gesture, but to guys it's generally not. It's "you're not good enough for me to date" to most guys, I think.

it isn't that they're not good enough.

sometimes a dude just doesn't meet us on a soul-level.

that's really important.

and it's not your fault, you're just a bit different from us and we don't wanna spend time on someone who we know won't fulfill us the way we need someone to.

Well in that case, skip the play and just unfriend her on Facebook. That should send a clear message.
