> friend zone

People who think like this exude unattractiveness, no matter how old you luck or how smart and funny and talented you are in your non-dating life.

If you go online dating and end up making friends, you WON online dating, because now you have wingpeople IRL to want to hook you up with their friends.

Not all friends are the type to wing other friends. Especially not casual friends, which is still what a “friend zone” includes.

I find this kinda odd to be honest. Like you want your friends to be happy. So if you have two single friends that you think might hit it off, why not? You don't have to set them up on a blind date, but just host some event and invite both. No real pressure.
