She has more guy friends than girl friends - First off, let me tell you that this is a major red flag. If a girl doesn't have any girl friends, but she has a ton of guy friends, turn the other direction and quickly walk away. This girl has issues. If a girl is unable to make strong connections with other females, she can blame it on other females (And believe me, she will), but the common denominator is her. Why is it that the other hundreds of girls that she’s encountered, "are evil," or "are all about drama," and she just can't get along with them? Chances are, this girl has major attitude and personality issues. I could go on for a while, but we'll save that for a whole other article. But if a girl can't get along with other girls, and has to surround herself with guys like you that want her, but she keeps only keeps you around for the attention, you know it's time to move on.
You're too nice - Now let me say that there is absolutely nothing wrong with being nice. In fact, you better be nice, respectful, and chivalrous towards women. But there is a difference between being a chivalrous man, and a doormat or a weak boy trying to buy her attention. You should never, ever try and buy love or attention from a person. If you have to, it means that you are placing yourself below them. And you think that you don't deserve them, so you have to buy their attention. Now no one, (guy or girl) wants to be with someone who is below them. It's the opposite; we want to be with someone who we perceive is the same or above us. If you’re too nice, and you allow yourself to be a doormat, girls will subconsciously see this, and treat you as such. There are no reservations for the friend-zone. You don’t have to wait for the host to seat you. The friend-zone is a "seat yourself" place for suckers to walk right in and sit themselves down. The quickest way to a friend-zone is by placing yourself there. And that's what you do when you slot yourself below the girl.
Girls want attention, whether they like you or not - Not every girl is going to like you. In fact, most won't. But that's ok, because you don't like every girl. You can't take it personal. You need to handle rejection and move on. Be a man, get back up, dust yourself off, and let it go. It's impossible to be everyone's type, so stop thinking you will be. But here's the difference between guys and girls. If a girl asks you out (like that ever happens), and you aren’t interested, you politely tell her no. But do you want to be her friend and hang out with her all the time? More than likely no. We don’t care about the attention from girls we don’t like. We only care about the attention from girls we like. But girls are different. They like the attention from guys. Ever wonder why they post selfies for the entire world to see? Attention, whether they like you or not.
Backup plans and friendly favors - Not only do girls like attention, but some girls like to keek their options open. What better place to keep a Plan B or C, then in the friendzone. Keep them around, for just in case. Now, depending how desperate you are, this could be a good thing, or if you have self-esteem, it's a bad thing. Do you really want to be a girl's backup plan? Then, not only do they have a backup option, but they also have extra guys around for favors like helping them move or buying them drinks.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that guys and girls can't be friends. I'm also not saying that they shouldn't be friends. It's good to have a couple good friends of the opposite sex for advice and a different perspective. BUT, there is a huge difference between being friends with a girl, and trying to be friends with a girl because you're interested in her, when she doesn't feel the same about you. If she were to flat-out tell you that she doesn't like you like that, and she never will, would you still want to be friends and hang out with her? If the answer is no, then you shouldn't be friends with her. All she's doing is stringing you along, with your permission,(Really, you're stringing yourself along) and you will always be on the outside, looking in.
