Friend Zoning Girls on Tinder

[Bboy100]

Hey guys,

So I've recently met quite a few girls on Tinder who I would not want to fuck or get romantically involved with for whatever reason (e.g. she doesn't look like her pics, she's a little too crazy for my tastes and I feel like it could come back to bite me etc.). But some of them would make great friends. Either because they're very popular and would therefore be able to introduce me to hot girls, they have connection in certain scenes, or they're just a chill person and I'd like to see them again in platonic context.

Problem is, its very difficult to friend zone a Tinder girl. Because the context of our first meeting is a date/sexual. So if I tell her "hey, I just wanna be friends", that usually results in them feeling rejected (which is accurate tbh) and saying no.

Any ideas on how to keep these girls around without necessarily having sex with them?

Hey BBoy,

that sounds like a good idea.

Why not employing the exact same tactics that girls use to friend zone us?

Take her to do things you would do with a friend. Or take her on a fun date, e.g. cinema. Or ask her to join you on a fun activity with many other friends. Or take her on a clothes shopping tour - you ask her for her opinion on clothes.

Then a second, or third, date like this. If she is still sticking around by then, it's mutually assured friend zone .

Also try the "I will let you know" tactics. LOL.

I did this with a girl I essentially lost sexual interest in but still did fuck her a few times.

I've gotten pretty good at judging a girls looks off tinder and dating apps. What i look for is definitely a body shot, if not, this is a clear warning sign for me. If no body shot, i tend to look at a girls arms to judge how big they are (upper arms). You can generally get a sense of a girls size by her arms. If they look bigger than I assume she is at least above-average weight. Maybe this doesn't bother you... but I personally like girls that are more petite/fit at this point since I've had my fair share of women that weren't and it honestly turns me off.

But in general, no body shots - I usually pass... even if she has a cute face.

Seppuku,

Good idea! I think maybe a good strategy would be to invite her out to a party or out with friends one night. It's still in opportunity for her to have fun (and could still come off like I'm courting her), but at the same time, it's not a date. So there'll be no pressure for me to make anything happen.

Mindful,
I've gotten pretty good at judging girls by their pictures. Usually my problem is more along the lines of her being too crazy or emotionally stunted more so than it is being physically unattractive.
