Why do people get so butthurt about being put in the "friendzone"?

As someone who has both been friendzoned and has friendzoned others I can confidentially say, just because you're nice to someone doesn't mean they're obligated to have feelings for you. Just because you have feelings for someone who made it clear that they're just your friend, doesn't mean you can force them to reciprocate. Get over it and move on.

I think your right. Sometimes it's just not there on that level for that person at the time. You can't force romantic feelings for another person. It could be that thar person isn't ready for that kind of relationship. For me I'm just a nice person I like to stay positive doesn't mean I want to have relationships with everyone. But at the same time sometimes I'd rather have that friendship background and than build a romatic one if there's feelings. If that makes any sense just feels stronger
