5 signs you’ve entered the ‘Just Friends Zone’

Dating can be really confusing. Especially if you’re not really dating someone. Or you think you’re dating someone but that someone doesn’t believe they’re dating you. What’s a dater to do? Here are 5 sure-fire signs that tell you you’ve successfully landed yourself in the Just Friends Zone.

1. It’s you who’s always initiating contact or planning things. Relationships are a 2-way street. Platonic relationships often times can be a 1-way street. (Don’t lie you know you have a friend or two that does all the work for you when it comes to hanging out.)

2. He/she refers to you as just a friend. Simple, right? Don’t get it twisted!

3. He/she talks about other people they’d like to romantically pursue because that’s what you do with friends. If this person talks like this and sees you more than just a friend, you might want to rethink your relationship.

4. He/she wants to set you up with other people. If that isn’t clear enough for you, I don’t know what is.

5. He/she only “wants you” when they’re drunk. In actual relationships, alcohol isn’t necessary to be wanted.
