The Friend Zone Is Better Than No Zone At All

"Yo, I love you like I love a puppy."

The Friend Zone Is Better Than No Zone At All

This one is for the homies who accept that they are just homies. Before I begin this let me just tell you all that a guy I personally friend-zoned told me to write about this topic.

What is the "friend-zone"? A place that boys or girls go when the person they are into, are just not into them, yet they want to stay friends. We all just want some friends, dude. Do girls even get friend-zoned? The answer is: most likely no. I mean yeah, sometimes a guy isn't feeling it with us, but then you usually just stop talking. Friend-zoning a guy, in my opinion, is basically just saying, "yo, I love you like I love a puppy. You're cute, cuddly and nice to talk to, but I'm not trying to hook up with a dog". Bad example? Probably.

I'm assuming that guys wonder why we friend-zone. I'm here to tell you all the truth. *This applies to both boys and girls, ya know.* Sometimes, we just aren't fully attracted to someone, but maybe he/she's personality is bomb as hell. Why would we want to completely cut someone off just because we don't want to hook up with someone? That logic just doesn't make sense to me and I'm sure many other people.

If you had a good friend for a super long time, and all of a sudden they decide to spill their hearts, guts, and feelings out about you- you're going to want to vomit if you don't feel the same way. We all hate hurting people's feelings, and of course, you don't want to ruin a nice long friendship. So, just like that, the friend-zone comes out. You politely put back this friend right back where they should always remain for now (maybe your feelings will change). I'm not trying to be mean, this is just the honest truth that no-one really wants to say.

If a guy can't accept the friend-zone, then he doesn't really deserve any zone. The fun-zone, the hungry-zone, love-zone, there's a whole lot of zones out there. Once a guy realizes he's in the "friend-zone", sometimes an automatic asshole personality emerges. Why? Because you weren't into him. Let's all take rejection like a champ and eat some ice cream if you are really that hurt.

I know the friend-zone is probably a rough time. Would you really rather lose a friend because they don't want to step the friendship up a notch? Most people I assume would say no. It's always nice to tell someone how you feel, I mean maybe he/she feels the same way and you end up getting married, having 4 little kid nuggets running around, and living in Canada. Who knows what could happen. Sometimes we just have to accept that the friend-zone is a real concept, and the love of your life is somewhere out there...but for the moment maybe your relationship is only with ice cream. If ice cream is your lover, then that's not such a bad way to live.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

Ancient Roman Kings: 7 Leaders of Early Rome

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.
