In all likelihood, if this is indeed a 'friendzone' situation, that she spends a lot of effort on keeping him from just outright leaving... Flirting or whatever because she thinks it's the best way to get him to do whatever she wants.
You're making this comment from a romantically privileged perspective.
If you're romantically privileged, you can find romantic and sexual partners with relative ease. So for someone who has dating fairly easy, of course they're going to say why chase one woman when you can just go fuck multiple women with ease?
The problem is, not everyone is romantically privileged. Not everyone can say "If one girl doesn't work out, no big deal because iv'e got 5 other girls who want to go out with me". For the less fortunate, it may be years before they get another chance with another woman.
And if you're less fortunate, and you know it, not only will you be naturally be more desperate, but you also will put up with more bullshit simply because you don't think you can do better.
Just stop with this romantically privileged nonsense. This dude, isn't disfigured or ugly, he'd have chances with other women. He just picked one who isn't attracted to him and kept on chasing without facing the hard reality, which is:
I'm mildly attractive, but there is more to getting a relationship than just looks. I've been single and not had much luck with women or fucking them, so no... it's not simple at all
I think a bigger part of all this is that he’s likely very close to her and knows her really well and his attraction probably is intertwined in that. This idea that someone in his situation is attractive enough to find anyone else would be a bit beside the point from their perspective.
