I say limited and not zero.

Obviously friends are are always good to have.

And it is good if some of those friends are women.

You may even meet the love of your life through friends.

But I am writing this to the guy who is always hanging out with girls and never sleeping with them. The dude who has become "one of the girls"

While it is best not to sleep with people in your social circle, especially If you plan on being in a group of friends for the long term. I want you guys to avoid the trap I fell into.

Through circumstances which are quite irrelevant, I found myself in a new city among a friend group of 4-5 very attractive female friends. I was the only guy in this group. I was their bodyguard when we went out. I was the guy they would flirt with when they got drunk. I was the dude they sent memes to throughout the day.

I felt like a king. Everytime we went out, men would look up on me with envy. But I was never actually getting any action.

I had no wingman. The girls only wanted to go to clubs which were sausage fests. They would dance on a rich guy's table and then we would leave.
I could probably have slept with a couple of them if I wanted. But then I might risk losing their friendship.

It wasn't until I started going out with other guys, and even sometimes alone, that I began to see real results.

These girls are still some of my closest friends and I love hanging out with them. But I no longer go out with them having the intention of hooking up. If I want to do that I'll have to hit up one my my wingmen.

I just wanted to talk about the dangers of getting comfortable in the friend zone. It can be a very nice place sometimes. But you can waste your whole life there.
