		<description>OMG FINALLY!!!  I&#039;m a woman who has been put in the friendzone far too many times to count.  I&#039;ve finally grown tired of it and I&#039;ve been searching the interwebs high and low for advice to stop the cycle, but nearly everything is from the male perspective!  I&#039;m so happy I&#039;m not alone, and so grateful for your tips!!</description>

		<description>as a woman who was demoted to the friend zone, even following these truly good tips doesn&#039;t always work. sometimes, you have to draw a line in the sand and call him out. but, one thing is for sure, if you&#039;re really not going to give, you better be ready for the loss of possibly your best friend.</description>

		<description>So weird to see this coming from a girl. You know guys have been dealing with this &quot;friend-zone&quot; thing for ages. We&#039;ve even come up with the scientific explanation called &quot;The Ladder Theory.&quot; 

It&#039;s extremely stereotypical, and for humor only, but essentially it states men have a single ladder in which we place all women on. The scale on this ladder is on the &quot;bone-ability,&quot; as you would put it, of the woman. Men usually place women on this ladder within the first 5 minutes of meeting them.

Women, on the other hand, have two ladders for men. They have a &quot;Dating Ladder&quot; and a &quot;Friends Ladder.&quot; It is said in ancient scriptures that a successful jump from the &quot;Friend&#039;s Ladder&quot; to the &quot;Dating Ladder&quot; occurs only once every Millennium! LOL!

		<description>Well written Lauren. I often feel that way about my relationships with my women friends. It&#039;s easy for me to be friends with women...it always has.  While I can spit with the best of the men, and I can certainly arm wrestle my way out of the jungle, I reluctantly admit that I have a soft side as well.  I&#039;ve often wondered if that makes me more relatable to those women and less likable as a boyfriend.  You made good points...thanks for writing.</description>
