Ahhh, the dreaded "friend zone". My buddy and I in college talked at length about this subject. We had it boiled down to two archetypes: Luke, and Han. It can be quite a quandry. You see that the "Hans" are getting the dates, but you're a Luke. You might try to overcome that by purposely being a dick, but that fails also.
I think its important to maybe stop focusing on the girl, and focus on you. Some part of you is purposely going for someone who's not interested. Why is that? You don't want this pattern to repeat.
The Luke and Han archetypes are within us all. We're not just one or the other. (Cue Yoda voice). Combine them, you must. Know thyself. Love thyself. Know what you want and why. Then go forth.
You have them inverted. You have Luke on the outside, Han trapped within. Worry not about those "assholes" getting the dates. Find your Han. (No this is not a Madbaggins thread) Embrace him. Have hot buttsex with him in a van. Then, and only then, will you have the Han without, the Luke within, until there is no Han, no Luke. There is only you.
And on a more serious note ~ do be sure you are centered and happy with yourself, and loving yourself, because a lack thereof may well repeatedly hurl you into TFZ.

This post could be a little less raunchy, but it contains much truth.

I think you're right on the money. I was in a similar situation at one point in high school. There was a girl I liked and in the beginning she seemed to feel the same. We went out a few times but it soon turned into a friend-type situation yet she was still leading me on. I could see she was playing games so I stopped talking to her. I moved on and started dating someone else. Several months later, during summer break, I ran into her and embarrassingly enough I had a huge hickey on my neck. I talked to her for a few minutes and she made it a point to ask me about my girlfriend.I think that when that happens, there often is an attraction, just one that isn't being acted on for whatever reason. I don't think you should hold your breath waiting for her to come around, though. She's decided you're a friend. If you like being her friend, fine, but it sounds like you want more and I think that will end up with you hurt. So, back to my original advice -- run away. Or walk away, if you like the less dramatic approach.
I dunno, man. This clever analogy implies that only Hans are worthy of getting dates. Doesn't Luke have anything on Han, in his own way?Ahhh, the dreaded "friend zone".

So to sum up the situation:
You ain't get'n in her pants. Period!
You can either
A) Still hang out, text, talk, whatever... if you value her as a friend; You do this knowing full well it's just you and your hand at the end of the night.
B) Walk away;
My advice would be to suck it up and keep her as a friend. Here's why. First it never hurts to have friends, unless the relationship is destructive. Second she's hot. She probably has hot friends. Once she considers you "inside the circle of trust", she'll start inviting you to go to clubs and such. A straight guy that has hot female friends, for whatever reason, seems to be a "turn-on" to other women.
Just go with it bro.
No no no, girls don't know what they want. Some girls, maybe many do this stuff all the time. You are just a pillow for her to cry on. To be honest you are allowing this to happen to yourself too. I think you should cut contact with her because nothing is going to happen between you two and she's just going to use you. Find a nice girl who will treat you right, respect you and respect herself.OK, let me rephrase......

Because I always thought girls never paid this much attention to a certain guy unless they were attracted to him.
I just get so fed up with guys their frat-boy off-hand statements about "crazy chicks," as if a woman on antidepressants is going to start stalking and murdering pets. This is ridiculous. What's more, it's a double standard; these comments are never directed towards men.Wow, thanks tsq. I take Xanax for a medical condition and some of the things said in this thread do hurt a bit. I'm not perfect--far from it--but I'd like to think I can still be a good friend, lover, productive member of society, good person, etc.
Dealing with mental health issues and seeking treatment for them is difficult enough without having others make you feel like you're not worth their time because of it.
Very cool of you to say so.I find comments like this ignorant, boorish and unnecessary.Here's another way to think about your girl problem; do you see yourself marrying this Xanex addict?
Agreed; I rescind my comment on grounds that it was poorly thought out and unintentionally harsh.
You seem to have been shuffled onto the dreaded "friend" list. Almost every girl has one, in my experience. It usually consists of genuinely nice guys who care deeply about the girl, often romantically, but whom she would usually never consider dating or even sleeping with for some unknown reason... maybe they're kept on as an ego booster? I don't know.
It is almost impossible to jump from the friend list over to the dating list, which usually consists of relative jerks who care little for her and treat her poorly, and whom she ultimately cares little about, and yet dates and fucks.
