        As many of you know, when I was in college, I was a socially backward individual. I never really dated until after I graduated from college, and my dating career vacillated from 1 oneitis to the next. Oneitis is absolutely crippling for a man. And I was no different.

        Oneitis, for those of you that don't know, is the falling for one girl that a man is totally in love with. He thinks of nothing else, doesn't date around, and his whole existence is dependent on this one girl. It is absolute hell.

        So when I would catch feels for a girl, it would quickly turn into oneitis. I would take MONTHS to get up the nerve to ask her out, and when I finally did, she would reject me or would tell me she had a boyfriend. I would be devastated.

        So it would take MORE MONTHS for me to get over my rejection. I wouldn't eat, I would stay in my dorm room for days, skip classes, become a recluse because I was absolutely, positively sure, THIS WOULD BE MY ONE.

        I would build up elaborate fantasies in my head with this girl. My life would literally stop until she said something to me. If she was nice to me, I would endlessly analyze it in my head. If she didn't say anything to me that day, I would slump down and regress.

        My neediness was telegraphed from miles away. I wasn't confident, didn't have a damn clue about game, and would go through this oneitis circle for years. It was miserable.

        So why do girls LJBF? Well, it's because guys don't state their intentions up front. A guy who has to sneak around the fact that he wants to sleep with a women only makes it harder for himself when he tries to be friends with her.

        It's not that men and women can't be friends. It's that men delude themselves into thinking that's what they have to do to get sex. It's the contrary.

        When men aren't sexually attracted to a woman, friendship can be an option. When he thinks he has to be friends to get in her panties, that's the trap.

        Men aren't honest with their intentions, so women friendzone them. This middle ground is best for a woman so she doesn't shit on a guy with a rejection, but keeps him in her orbit for a "just in case".

        But... The "just in case" sex rarely if ever happens. But men will hold on to that hope, even when it's long gone. And that's where I was. Fucking depressing way to live.
