k, how do we avoid the friendship zone when first meeting a women? Do we have to be an ahole? I mean, its so easy for a women to put a guy in that zone and then, he's stuck there for life and cant get out. I dont want to be in this position with women. It sucks.

What are the signs that a women gives a guy, that he's going into the zone?

What are his qualities etc....that puts himself into this zone?

Since when does "nice" equal "no spine"?

It really bugs me when people confuse being a doormat with being nice. Doormats are not "nice". Men with good character who treat other people well and have confidence and stand up for themselves without being bullies are "nice".

Nah, see well I disagree with that as well. If a super hot guy approaches me and he knows he's super hot and gives off attitude I'm gonna think he's a jerk. I don't need to get to know him more and I don't care how hot he is.

However, if a decent looking guy came up to me, was nice, approachable and we got on fine, I would MUCH rather talk to him and decide to get to know him better than the hot guy who already loves himself enough for both of us.

Ya know? ;-)

So, like I said, looks do play a part - because you have to be attracted to 'something' about the person, but just coz a guy is hot doesn't mean I'm gonna be more attracted to him than his average looking mate. Again, it's the whole package.

But that's just me.
