The friend zone is quite real. It's possible to get out of it...but...it's quite difficult. Much easier to let the woman know, from the start of your interaction, that you are a sexual being and you expect her to behave appropriately.

The friend zone is an honor. You get to stay in that person’s life indefinitely and share close moments of friendship when they could have easily walked away.
And yes, I am speaking from experience.
That approach, like the cash-in-hand gambit, is guaranteed to weed out the women (and/or men) who might otherwise be your friend. Are you sure that a transactional relationship will always be your only aim in life?
One thing annoys me about "friendzone" discussions: The commonly used definition is not at all the one used when I grew up. At my school, among the guys I knew, to be friendzoned meant that you were already friends with a girl, and during the course of that friendship, you developed romantic feelings for her, but she didn't return them and wanted to just be friends.
You know, I kinda agree with this guy....in a way. If all you're after is sex, at least it's honest to tell her that from the start. I mean, I guess that's better than letting her think you're actually interested in anything besides a warm body. Of course, most of us non-sociopaths are usually looking for a relationship to go along with that, and realize that a relationship with a woman without sex can be a good thing, too.

That's how I used to see it too, and I have been in that situation once or twice. I can't even imagine pretending to be someone's friend solely for the purpose of sleeping with them, as these guys do.

Heh.
‘Hi, I’m Todd, and i just want you to know i’m a sexual being, and ultimately i expect you to reciprocate.’
‘Sir, this is a Wendy’s.’
‘And Joseph, here, will be showing you how the decollator works.’
‘Hello, Joseph.’
‘Hello, i want you to know i’m a sexual being and the decollator would be a great surface for sex.’
’That’ll be all, Joseph.’
Confused?
