Can attractive men still be friendzoned after first date?

If they dont really know how to flirt and just treat the girl more like a friend or is it coz they find them unattractive or don't like their personality?

Yep. A woman will give you one time to take her advances. Maybe 2 or 3 if she's really attracted to you. Otherwise she'll shelf you for being a pussy and making her feel undesirable.

If she text back first the next day saying she had a great time and that he's a nice guy But didn't feel a romantic connection but would like to continue being friends and have coffee sometime (after date at bar with drinks) is that still salvageable to rekindle or is it friendzoned forever?

The text back to that was a simple 'no worries Claire all good' to keep it simple and slightly confusing and not ghosting. Should a follow up happen after a week or so if so? I'm guessing just doing that for a basic friendship isn't a great idea unless that spark can rekindle and man in question can become more flirtatious?

You either make your move on the first date or its usually done.

Better they call you an animal than a friend.

I don't let myself get friend zoned.

We either have the chemistry and hook up, or we don't talk anymore once it's clearly established we don't.

I have never been friendzoned in my entire life. never had a female friend.

i always wondered if it's my problem growing up. girls simply didn't want to be friends with me or hang around me. we bang and they end up hating me because i wouldn't go steady with them.

after a slaycount well into triple digits, i realized it's that i'm the guy they want to fucc.

You're fuked bro.

It's salvageable in theory, if the lack of spark was due to the man not being interested on the first date.

But since you're posting this **** on the misc, and the lack of spark was due to you being a pussy, she's just being nice about letting you know.

There isn't anything to rekindle. You went on a romantic date, there was no spark. Cut your loses and move on.

Noted. It was my first ever date and I treated her like a friend probably due to being inexperienced.

Pretty sure the friendzone was invented to keep attractive guys in a woman's orbit.

Notice when a date doesn't go well and if the guy is ugly then the woman simply ghosts / ignores / refuses to meet him or just doesn't put in any effort in maintaining a 'friendship'.

Sexual interest goes both ways, and if you can't feel the tension, then why force it?

Ignore the dudes saying they've banged bout 350 ladies, they're full of it.
Yeah I didn't really feel much tension at all even tho she was fairly attractive and we had alot in common. Thanks fella

Like the people who I've know that do that, always ended up doing something really shady to me, also - like they're quite ruthless and callous with how they treat other people?

The thing is, im quite attractive and I'd get lots of attention from girls, but I wouldn't wanna bang them - so my friends though I was gay or something - not sure what that has to do with anything though?

I don't get how pleasurable it can be to bang some random body and then not really wanna cuddle with them? Or how can you cuddle with somebody who you don't like? The whole world is bizarre in my eyes and the only way I can see it going on is if you're constantly under the influence.

Either way, I paid the price for my stupidity - ditched that life and now I am happier than ever.
Yeah I know what you mean man. I've never had that coz I have isolated myself for a very long time and now started doing nofap and no porn for life now and just starting to put myself out there but I could never be like those callous pricks always getting drunk n stuff just to be appear like a fake ass ******* try hard 'bad boy'

Good of you that you found peace in your lifestyle now it seems like the right path that I would like to take as well

You think you're insecure about your sex life? just imagine the dude who obsesses over it every minute of his life.
Lol yeah it's prob an addiction for those *******s and when they can't get their dopamine hits they turn into stress machines

Yea absolutely. If you don’t meet the image built up in her head you’ll falter. Especially if you seem like a complete beta

A lot of attraction for women isn’t just looks but overall presence

If she is trolling for Chad Thundercock of course you can get friendzoned.

In general you have to be a pretty ridiculous combination of socially retarded and poor to get friendzoned as a Chad.
Eat in a deficit to lose weight.
Hit your protein and fat minimums to stay healthy and keep your gainz.
Lift heavy and do HIIT to look and feel awesome.
Use the internet to learn why you should do these things and how to do these things.

Surprised this thread is still up...But gauging interest can be difficult for people new to dating unless the girl is really showing Indicators of interest. The best thing you can do is try to create a positive environment from the beginning. Give the girl a hug. Smile when you see her. Act like you're genuinely happy to see her. If the girl likes you, she'll reciprocate. A lot of guys mess up by just throwing out questions, occupying air time. Look at it like this...If you and I met up and I said.

"Hey bro...How are you?" and shook your hand you might give one response...Now if I said "What's up bro?!?" enthusiastically shook your hand, and brought you in for a half hug, you're probably going to have a totally different response. Create the energy you want the date to follow. Sometimes you just get a rotten egg, and it doesn't go good, but that's dating.

Cheers brah, you're gonna make it.

You get more rope the more attractive you are looks wise. But women operate on feels, if you can make her feel good = more attraction.

That said, she'll drop hints and women will get over it quickly if you don't pick up on them. You don't have to bang on the first date. Or even kiss, but you need to flirt and definitely touch her. Honestly though, women will typically initiate touch if they find you attractive, thats kinda green light that says "I am open for more than friendship" and each woman will be different as far as speed etc, but you have to atleast put your foot on the gas a little bit otherwise they will think you aren't interested at all.

As much as you are in your head, they are in their head 1000x more.


You can recover from what you just did, but honestly, its probably not worth your time. I wouldn't accept being friends with her if you want to recover. You can say ya, but then just distance yourself. Don't hang out with her, dont go on friend outings. Dont text her all the time. That will just move you further into being her friend. You want her to have to work for your attention now. If she doesnt, she really didn't like you at all tbh.

Being friendzoned is something that only happens if you let it happen or else just move on and she can friend the air and space you just occupied after that who gives a fuk only thoughts of the girl that should ever pop into your head after is if maybe you need spank material with whatever you slightly were attracted to other than that ....the end

To those saying “Chad can’t get friendzoned” definitely not true, and likely said by an incel with no chick experience



As said above being good looking gives you a longer rope to work with. But you can still hand yourself with it. Women can be all over you one week and completely turned off the next. If when you interact you’re too much of a pushover, weird, awkward, etc and don’t match how they envision you she will close that door and likely won’t be opened up again. Men are almost purely physically so it’s hard to imagine turning down a hot girl because of her personality.

But if a man is tall and handsome but really off putting in other ways she will quickly lose interest. That said usually attractive people are socially more normal so it doesn’t happen as often but it does happen
