10 Warning Signs That You Should Dump His Ass
Every once in a while, a gal will meet a guy that she knows likes her as a person as well as romantically, however, he refuses to make it happen… He refuses to take that extra step to start something up between them and see how it goes. This is when a gal finds herself trapped in the dreaded Friends Zone!!! :O
As usual, it’s Lindz & Bill to the rescue, with ten reasons why you might be receiving this kind of treatment. Let us know what you think in the comments section, below…
Lindz
1. He Wants to Keep His Options Open
Ladies, he would never put himself on a diet just in case he got hungry and wanted a cheeseburger and fries. The same with this situation. Tying himself down to you or any one person at all completely eliminates all the rest of the girls out there and to be honest, there are many fish in the sea. Many FINE fish in the sea that are looking for the perfect King Salmon or King Crab to go home with.
2. He’d Rather Hang Out With His Guy Friends Than Be Obligated To You
By not dating you or any other woman, he has the right to say, “No I don’t want to go to your sister’s Bat Mitzvah with you. I’d rather stay home and play Fantasy Football. Really it doesn’t matter what he is doing because if he’s not tied down to you, he has no obligation. Guys are lazy and they don’t like to commit. Maybe one night he would rather sit at home and watch porn than go to your Mom’s 60th birthday with you. Can you blame him?
3. The Holidays Are Coming Up And He’s Broke.
Having a significant other generally means that you have to get them a gift for their birthday, Christmas, Valentine’s Day. If he’s broke and legitimately cannot afford a gift for you, he may hold off on the boyfriend/girlfriend status because not getting you a gift will make him seem cheap and embarassing, and he would rather be single than be called cheap.
4. You’re Way Hotter Than Him and He’s Insecure That You’ll Leave Him
Guys really do think that way. He would rather not date you than date you and be dumped by you. Because then he would be that douchebag that got dumped by the hot girl. And it would hurt his self esteem and image for longer than you would probably be dating. He’s gotta look out for himself in this situation. That’s why you see so many good looking guys with not so good looking girls. They are confident that she’ll stick around. It’s hard being hot. I know…
5. You’re Damaged Goods (Bros Before Hoes)
Well you brought this upon yourself, what can I say? If you’re trying to hook up with a guy or date him, DO NOT.. I repeat.. DO NOT hook up, date, sleep around, flirt, text, his friends. Contrary to what you may think, guys DO talk and they will talk about that girl (YOU) who is trying to play them like they were born yesterday. So be wise and most importantly, choose wisely. One stupid drunken hook up could curse your future forever.
You’re damaged goods (Bros before Hoes)
Bill
6. He Doesn’t Want To Hit It
He thinks you’re fantastic as a person and all that, but he just doesn’t see having sex with you as being a good time. This might be because he’s not physically turned on by your body or he’s not mentally aroused by your mentality or your way of being. You might be too kinky for him or not kinky enough.. too chunky or too skinny… too prudish or too horny… you might have too much junk in the trunk or not enough bounce to the ounce! HAHA Who Knows? :D
7. You Can’t Handle It
“I’ve seen the future… I can’t afford it…” Sometimes, it becomes apparent that getting out is going to be tougher than getting in. Being that he has ZERO intentions of having sex with only you for the rest of his life, as much as he’d love to hook up with you, it’s ultimately more trouble than it’s worth. He’ll just have to be content to fantasize about it and keep it movin’! :D
8. HE Can’t Handle It
A brotha stands to potentially lose some Cool Points if he hooks up with a chick that’s TOO FOYINE and then all that “King Of My Castle” trash he’s been talking about women for YEARS suddenly evaporates into thin air. He might have to take a pass on this one in order to maintain his Social Cred.
9. Your Friendship or Business Is More Important
Keep your eyes on the prize!!! :D You don’t want to jack you career advancement because your now-ex-girlfriend doesn’t want to see your grill around the office. Bite the bullet on this one and get PizAID!!! You can pull a lot more chicks with the money you’ll be getting from this one. ;)
Also, if you expect a certain level of coolness and mental compatibility, close homegirls are hard to find. Beleedat! It’s TOTALLY not worth it to alienate a great gal because she’s sour that y’all aren’t hooking up anymore. But hey… I mean if she begs you, you might just have to do her that solid and hit her off, NAH MEEN? :D
10. You Have Lots Of Attractive Girlfriends
If he’s friends with you, you’ll introduce him to all your foyine-ass girlfriends that are always crowded around you at the parties! :D If he’s messing with you, you’re gonna hog The Kid all to yourself, and what’s the point of being SELFISH??? :D
Remember… Ain’t no fun ‘less’n your HOMEGIRLS could get some!!! :D

Well put you two.
Thanks, Mike! :)
Cheers! :D
WOW. Interesting reading…most of this I already knew. I have the opposite issue. (Guys I am NOT AT ALL interested in wanting to be more then friends) LOL
Thanks, Pam! :D
Like you said, the dilemma you bring up is an entirely different can of worms! hahaha Glad you enjoyed! :D
Nice post,
I have seen/ been involved in situations like this before and i can honestly say that about 80% of the time it’s a combination of #10,9,7 which all come down to you bring more to the table as a friend than you would if it become something else.
Yeah, a combination of #10 and #9 is pretty tough to beat. :D
It’s no wonder that there are some fantastic women that routinely complain that they never get asked out. Besides the potential intimidation factor, they’re just too valuable as contacts to take chances with.
1)So you are a 12 trick pony and blessed me with 11 of them that first night. Yes, I wanna keep my options open. No reason to settle now… Nothing to look forward to.
2)True dat, true dat…
3)Holidays are coming and… Im not feeling you like that! Hey, Merry Christmas! Hope you get everything you wanted.
4)You are WAAAAAY hotther than me and… I GOTTA WONDER WHY YOU NOT TAKEN!!!!??? Theres a defect somewhere and Im not trying to figure it out!
5)The group slide…’nuff said!
6)Heard you complain about every dude you been with. You still the only female left on the planet that wont blo…er, “bless” your man. Plus you sound like a chipmunk… yeah, I’ll pass.
7)Truuuuuuuuuuue! To many women confuse getting d*ck with being in love…
8)Truuuuuuuuuuue! To many women confuse getting d*ck with being in love… and I cant handle you wanting more than I am offering.
9)YES!!! I done seen the light and your friends are TOO HOT for me to mess up the friendship
with you!
10)Preach Brotha’ Cammack, PREACH!!!
1) Interesting point. The only way a gal’s going to survive handing out 11 of her 12 tricks is if she’s really fantastic or interesting as a person. Looking good and doing the right thing in the sack are absolutely common traits compared to a chick actually being compelling enough to want to spend time with.
3) Yeah, that happens a lot, too. It’s not that the guy’s broke, it’s just that he knows he’s not going to be interested in her after the holiday season so he needs to get rid of her now so he can show up DOLO to all the holiday parties and scoop the Executive Secretaries making 80k at his friend’s jobs.
4) That’s true. After a while, people start to wonder why a chick who’s obviously visually a catch hasn’t been scooped up by anyone.
Having said that.. At least in Social Media circles, there are a lot of chicks that DO have boyfriends, but they hide them so they can still cash in on followers on Facebook & Twitter that think they might have a shot with them or at least want to fantasize about hooking up with them. You see it a lot with performers, that they’re urged to keep their dating lives out of the tabloids so fans aren’t turned off that they’re “taken”.
So there are some chicks that appear to be perpetually single, even though they’re attractive, successful, witty, fun & intelligent.. and in reality, they’re doing their dirt on the regular on the DL so they can maintain their business props.
5) Yeah, it’s amazing how women don’t think about that and get around with several guys in the same group. They’re probably the same chicks that Chris Rock was talking about in his routine that are dancing their asses off at the club to “Put it in her mouth”, talkin’ ’bout “He’s Not Talking About MEEEE! :D”
6) hahahahaha Yeah.. If a chick’s skeeved out when you mention common “bedroom” occurrences, she’s not likely to get to first base, as the rest of the game’s likely to be boring and having a brotha yawning like the 7th inning stretch.
PASS!!!
9) No dIZoubt. If she’s not down to share and her friends are hawter, she might just have to remain on the sidelines way over there by the friends zone! :D
That’s pretty good! I like #3 the best! The best time to date is either right after the holidays or right after valentines! haha.
