I've always heard that until you are in a relationship with a girl to always avoid situations in which she can associate you with negative thoughts. I've been talking with this girl I like for sometime now, but I have only been on one real date with her, and I like her and don't want to fall into friend zone. I texted her back saying I am sorry :(, r u ok?"..she hasn't replied to that, but if or when she does, what's the best way for me to approach this w/o seeming like that guy she can call to have a shoulder to cry on aka the friend zonee??

Hey, I'm new here myself but - personally, I would say: BE THERE for her and don't worry about that "friend zone" crap. I'm a dude but when my dog passed away I was an emotional wreck and really needed someone to be there for me. The more supportive you are, the better...I don't think you should be concerned with her imprinting bad memories onto you or any of that stuff. I realize you're in a slightly awkward position, having only been on one real date, but I bet if you show her that you care then she won't forget you.

I have to agree with NoGood... don't worry about the friendzone. I know that if my pet died and a interested potential mate did not care that would really make me think twice about them.

 

Besides if your a potential BF as an actual BF would you not want to be there to provide emotional support? She could associate you with the positive experience of being wonderfully emotionally supported by a man...a positive person at a generally negative time.

A death wont friend zone you. If you text her and she doesnt answer she either isnt interested enough or she is REALLY distraught about her dog. If its the latter, you will have to construct an accidental meeting with her in a month or so when she isnt feeling so bad about it. If you offer too much, you will be friend zoned. If she really likes you, she might look to you for consolation. problem is, if you get the feeling you were friend zoned after the first date, you probably were.
