Nope. When a woman says that she just wants to be friends that basically means that she hates your guts but she doesnt want to be mean about it. Its best to forget about her. You can't be friends with a woman that isn't related to you. Only acquaintances.

I was watching this movie last night "Just Friends" and I was thinking about how I was interested in girls before and either they or I were seeing someone so I we became friends. In most cases the initial attraction was mutual but when we were both free to date each other even if we hooked up or did date it didn't last long. I usually got some variation of "This wouldn't work, we're good friends." So I was wondering if theoretically is it possible to escape from the "friend zone" and what does it take? thank you

This excuse is a crock of s***! It is moreso they are afraid of; a: Being hurt by someone close to them that knows quite a bit more than anyone else; or b: A copout when they are afraid of the possibility and outcome being better. It really comes down to the past relationships with boyfriends/fiancee's/parents/siblings/friends, drawn from that comes this psychosis of fear...ultimately of good, but the unknown is what scares people the most.
