“If I am head over heels for a girl, then I will not care if the ‘friendship’ gets ruined. I will pursue the relationship.” Agreed; if one of you voices romantic feelings for the other, the platonic friendship is already over, so there is nothing left to risk. If the interest is solely sexual, you can remain friends, at least when you’re both still single.

The friend zone most definitely exists – I spent most of my teenage years and early 20s in it with various women I had feelings for. But preserving the friendship isn’t the real reason it exists. Rather, it’s a convenient excuse to hide behind when dealing with the awkward and delicate situation of rejecting a friend who shows interest in you, but whom you’re not attracted to in return. The reality is: if you’re available, you love your platonic friend’s company, and you are physically attracted to him or her – you would most likely get romantically involved with them if given the opportunity. Why would anyone choose to just be platonic friends with someone they’re attracted to over being with them romantically? You get all the same benefits of their friendship either way.
