Getting out of the Friends zone.
I am so fed up of ending in the friends' zone. That's when you go on a few dates and want more and you get to have the conversation that starts, "I like you as a friend." That conversation sucks and not in a good way. What that usually means is that they want you to take them out but they want to have sex with someone else or you do all the work and then someone else has all the fun. Well that stops, I have had enough, no more.
I had been going out with Cassie for a few weeks and she called me up and invited me over. I was kind of already expecting the conversation now as she sounded as if she had something to say. I arrived at her house and she started by giving me a friendly hug. That's when I knew and I had already made my decision.
More or less the conversation started by Cassie saying "I like you but I do not want to go any further than being friends."
You can read all the articles you like it still sucks. I said the following politely and calmly.
"No thanks, I am not taking you out buying you dinner for you to get fucked by someone else. I do all the work and someone else has all the fun."
Cassie's face was a picture "What do you mean."
"Which part do you not understand we either start having sex or I walk away as I am not going in the friends' zone."
Guess what I walked away. I got up grabbed my coat and left. I do not think this had happened to her before. I was a bit upset but glad I had done it. The next day was interesting the calls I had from people both male and female some saying "why?" others saying "well done".
For the next week not surprisingly I heard nothing from Cassie not even a "Fuck you."
What happened 2 weeks later shocked the hell out of me.
