Today, I brought a friend who I have loved for years out to a nice restaurant for dinner. I ordered an expensive bottle of wine, and poured each of us a glass. As I was about to tell her I loved her, she raised her glass for a toast and said "A toast to friendship!" FML

She probably knows you like her and doesn't like you back. So, instead of being a bitch and rejecting you, she kept you as a friend. It definitely could have been worse, buddy.

I love how every one bitches about rejection. What is someone supposed to do if they're not attracted to you? Say yes and pity date you? Get into a relationship so you dont get your feelings hurt and inevitably treat you like shit? Yeah it sucks, but I hate peoples' attitude about it.

Haha I'm sorry... I guess that's your cue to give up for now. At least she doesn't think you're gay like so many other poor souls on this site! Maybe shell do something in return for the nice evening at a later time :D

well first of all thats sucks dude...but im tell you the truth something i learned myself...girls dont like that nice guy shit...i mean the more you be nice to her and take her out and stuff the quickly she gets bored and dont see you as someone she wants to be with...my adivce date someone else or just ignore her like just stop being so nice... and do your own thing...girls like to be the center of attention once your not into her like that anymore and she see your not into her oddly she will start to like you...i dont know why girl operate weird as hell

First. You should just stop talking to her. It Is going to do you no good to keep talking to her. You will always want more and she won't. Leave it at that. You are in the friends zone and will be stuck there.

its because nice guys can be manipulated around our little finger, theres no challenge and no fun, plus tbh the nice guys are usually the **** ugly creepy ones.. besides the way this sounds the girl in question knows you like her, and did exactly what I'd do in the same situation, which is save your ego and your friendship while making it clear she doesnt have any feelings for you, she could have been so much meaner bad luck op

She is just afraid to tell you she has herpes. Anyway, if the wine does its job she will loosen up later in the evening.

It is a horrible thing, but you are not getting out of the friend zone without a shit load of pain on this one. You have two options, both of which is probably end things. 1) You tell her how you feel, straight up, no taking her out for some function, no dancing around it, straight up ask her. Do it in person, and somewhere not very public. She will shoot you down, but it will be over, and it needs to be over. Second option, if you don't want to tell her, go to 2) stop hanging round her. Don't return calls, don't go to hang, don't be around her, it will only make you feel like shit. Consider her a drug, and you need to get to rehab now. Alcoholics don't have beer around them or go to bars, so you don't have her around to tempt you. It will hurt in your gut, beat you to pieces, but eventually she will go away, and you can live your life. Not telling her is shitty, but chances are she already knows and will figure it out on her own. It isn't fair to yourself to live the lie, and your better off alone than eating shit every day.

life can suck really bad sometimes, and being eternally damned to the friend zone is one of them in relationships. the best antidote and the only antidote is to move on and find someone better. I know that u "love her" and all, but believe me, if u confess to her or keep trying to get her attention and seek her approval (i.e., needy and being a wuss - ref: david deangelo), u will only make her lose respect and appreciation for u. it will further DECREASE HER ATTRACTION towards u. think about it. why would a girl invest more into u (i.e., her emotions, body, soul) when she already knows she can get whatever she wants from u? women do not think about this consciously, but it's built into their genetic code...it's almost the same for guys...that's why u see all the bad boys, alpha type males get all the chicks and the more passive, less assertive, "nice guys" always get left out when it comes to booty. girls will always say to the nice guy, "you're such a great guy and u'll definitely find someone that suits u, it's just that (insert) i'm not the one for u OR I want us to keep the friendship OR i'm not looking for a relationship at the moment, etc." next week u'll here that the girl went out with a guy and slept with that guy after 2 dates. I speak from many failed experiences and am continually reminded how girls are attracted to u when u are in control, comfortable in ur own skin, and not needy. the min u become "wussified" it's over!

I think you need to keep in mind that if you don't start touching a girl very early after you meet her, and keep the sexual tension going, you're gonna end up in the friend zone. You have to kiss her early, because "friends don't kiss" Ref (Style and Mystery)

Listen, girls DO drop hints that they are not interested before guys go dropping big dough and taking them to expensive dinners. It's just that the average guy is too retarded to notice or just doesn't get it. I guarantee you this girl knew what was coming from a mile way and cut him off before he said it because she wanted to save his pride instead of having to cut him down even more in the middle of a restaurant. She made it quite clear where her feelings lie. So all you cats saying he should tell her how he feels about her after she has already told him straight up she feels about it, I think that is the worst possible advice unless he WANTS to make things awkward. Anyway I don't know why i'm bothering to give some serious advice, guess I feel for you because I have been that loser at the restaurant once upon a time, but never again ;) So uh to cut a long story short, FYL, you suckkkkkk Ps i'm a guy but i'm pretty sure 95% of girls here will back me up on all of the above.

Except thats more of a matter of psychology than genetics. You know, from reacting to your environment?

you're a sweet guy. she just got the wrong idea all the while.
