As you know men and women think differantly,
now allot of guys believe that they can meet a women,get to know her, develop a friendship and then possibly fall in love( Losers, this never happens)
Women think differantly however and their reaction depends on attraction and the jerk factor.
Now there are 2 ends of the spectrum for men.
on one side is the nice guy, sweet , charming lovable,insecure pussywhipped
on the other , the arogant, self centerd, confident, jerk.
Now women are hardwired geneticly to have an attraction to jerks,
while the nice guys fall into the friendzone.
Now what i want to know is what you guys do to avoid falling into the friendzone.
I must admit i am somewhere in the middle of the spectrum, and i have frequently fallen into the friendzone unintentionally. Usuall senario, you meet a girl shes attractive and like any red blooded man you want to bang her, but next thing you know a couple of weeks have passed and you have not banged her, instead she is calling you late at night complaining about her ex-boyfriend,
revealing extremely personal information, and wanting to take you shopping for godssake!.

since i usually date more than one women at the time, this isnt so much of a problem
because if i fall into the friendzone with one or 2 of them, you have other parralell tracks to fall back on.

some of your ideas.
