freindzoned is what happens when your strategy is to be nice to a girl but never make a move.
its 100% preventable
this.
being a "nice guy" isn't how you date people. sure, you befriend the person first but after that you start to make moves, and flirt and whatnot
if your sole purpose is to find a girlfriend, then just move on and date someone else, no reason to be a drama queen about being rejected by one person. if you want to make a big deal about it then you'd be happy to at least be her friend.
