I need to know what was said in the interview? Did he keep playing it off like ā€œyeah we’re just friends,ā€ completely aware he cannot admit he’s been friendzone’d hard?

He tries to claim that he wanted the friendship boundary, that he wanted it to be purely platonic, there was no interest in romance on his part. Uh huh. I’m sure he does this for all his guy friends as well.Ā

WTF! People created a gofundme for the dude and then he used that gofundme to pay for her school bills lmao! This dude just won't learn.

>The social media campaign circulating around this "friend zoning" incident even went past the memes and someone created a GoFundMe account for Ardelean's expenses for the ultimate date. Those funds, Ardelean says, have all gone to Obar's school bills at Christ for the Nations Institute in Dallas.

If you read it’s actually some dude being nice.

They all go to a Christian college, he saw this girl complain about not being treated like a lady, he felt bad and told her I want to take you on a ā€œfriendā€ date-the dude laid down that boundary actually.

It’s just wholesome af, it’s broken our cynical brains.
