I was stuck in the friend zone every day for years

This is frustrating and makes it hard to talk to them or hang out. It’s even worse for people who have been in a relationship before. The first time I was friendzoned was my first girlfriend when I was a kid. That was a huge blow to my self esteem. Our students got virtual classes so I was able to stay with my dad in another city so I hadn’t seen them in a while. <br><br>I stayed in the friend zone for so long I decided to just move on. When I did talk to them, I was always a boyfriend but never a boyfriend, but as I got over them and became celibate, I didn’t feel like that anymore. I just want to get over this. I feel like I’ve been in a non physical relationship with women for years.
