By Roses are Red - 07/03/2013 06:07 - United States - Ridgeland

Today, I sent a dozen roses and a hand-written, heart-felt note to my ex-girlfriend to show her that I'm still madly in love with her. When I asked if she got the flowers I sent, she replied, "Yeah but you got the wrong color. You should've gotten yellow, that stands for friendship." FML

It's tough, but if she's not interested you need to move on.

OP- It's sad and hard to give up on a relationship but you've got to see that she's friend-zoning you to the max- drop her, grieve, move on- someone's out there who will love you but you won't find her if you hang on to this one!! Let her go!!

When flowers still invoke the 'F' word, and not the good one, then you have no chance.

Friend zoning an ex is almost impossible. They always try to convince themselves that a grand gesture of some sort will make you come around. And all it does is make the recipient uncomfortable and pitying, which is super awkward. Always best to cut ties until both have completely moved on

I completely agree. I dated this guy for 3 years and it was very hard to move on. We cut all ties for almost a year until we realized we made great friends. Op should try doing the same.

#23, I'll bet the Bing translator used Auto-Detect to translate from English->Stalker.

Is this a thing? I feel like this should be a thing.

#52, it is, but I'm not sure how sophisticated it is. I entered: "**** off, creep!" "It was one date three years ago, there won't ever be a second." "Get out of that tree -- I can see you." "No, the jars of semen don't impress me." and each time, it translated them to, "Oh, baby, keep trying, you are this close to winning me over!"
