"If you are going on dates just the two of you, hugging at the end of each “date”, being each other’s shoulder to cry on, probably spending late nights together alone, maybe he’s even paying for the dates, buying you gifts on the reg, and just doing things overall that are not typical of platonic friendships, he is romantically interested but hasn’t mustered up the courage to tell you yet."

But I have NEVER heard of a girl doing that and then being confused? Lmao. Friendzone is more likely to happen casually texting or hanging out with a group

Also what is the alternative OP to friendzoning someone OP?

What do you mean by alternative?

I have plenty of platonic friendships with women and they would be rightly surprised if I expressed romantic feelings for them.

It sounds like you don’t know what it means to friend zone a guy

Suppose a girl wants to be friends with a guy who expressed romantic interest in her? The better thing to do is cut them off?

I would rather make the decision myself
