I have been thinking about this a few weeks now, as something ive been doing subconciously and it actually seems right to me so hear me out
Here is why - I was chatting to this chick who was visiting friends in the area, trying to do my 'thing' when this other girl I had been LJBF'd by months ago but who I kept in contact with comes up and sits on my knee and goes on about how amazing I am bla bla bla, she leaves after a bit, but the interesting thing is while she is there I could litterally see the other girls buying temprature/attraction go up and up and up, with little effort on my part! We made out and then she ended up back at mine! (jealousy/preselection ftw!)
In short im talking about some form of embraced Meta social proofing here I suppose if I was to be technical, not just 'the' venue but your entire life!
What I am coming to realise is being friendzoned might seem bad short term but can be turned around and used to your advantage long term, it's like a giant pussy pension plan.
Each 'friendzoning' you get might mean closure on an immediate sexual encounter or begining of a relationship, but it's not all bad think of it as investing in the future - you will have more female friends (if your starting out/young, your first few female friends will be a massive boost!), which you can then use to to bring new female encounters into fruition alot quicker and alot easier. When it comes to social proof it doesnt matter if it's a fuck buddy or just a friend that you roll into a club for example with, on each arm. The visual effect is the same to people in the venue!
Im not saying go out and actively get friend zoned lol! But if you do, have the mental willpower to accept it, accept the offered friendship, dont get oneitius/hung up on them - just use that new friendship to your advantage for the next girl, instead of coming on the forums and asking how to get out the friend zone!
Chances are if your in there you wont have the ability/skill yet to get yourself out of it, so dont ask for advice/spend time on doing so.... embrace it! invest in it(but not too much!)!
You are then not only learning from your mistakes but your also building on them! dont waste your resouces by 'moving on' - build them into your social network even if only lightly! Once you have your established harem of unwitting underlings inadvertantly sponsoring you to the fairer sex, you can spend less time cultivating new 'friendzones' and 'moving on'...to the next one! This also means this train of thought applys more to less established guys though, since I feel there is a point of critical mass that, you dont really need 'more' or worry about it.
What is better?
1) spending time learning/trying how to possibly but more importantly - unrealistically claw your way out the friend zone of some girl who is a 'unique and special snowflake' ... just like every other girl.
or
2) spend that time learning/practicing how not to get into the friendzone in the first place, and also recruiting/solidifying female friends to take out partying with you for use in selling yourself to other chicks?
To summarise : being friendzoned isnt such a bad thing, dont get hung up on it, use that result to improve yourself and move on to the next girl, there ARE plenty of them!
p.s the weekend has arrived woohooo!
