So I've been hearing this term a lot lately "Frankenstein boyfriend project" and it comes from this coach named Corey Wayne. After hearing it, I decided to do my research and listen to some of Corey's videos to understand the term better. And I think it explains really well how most feminist use guys in their friendzone.

So from what I've gathered: Basically, a "Frankenstein boyfriend project" is when a girl has multiple guys in her life she uses for different things. And all these guys are "peices" which when she puts together, makes her ideal super boyfriend. Or as the term implies, her "Frankenstein boyfriend project". She will sometimes consider herself single, but most of the times, she will have one main "boyfriend". It usually breaks down in these 3 main guys:

1. The guy she uses for financial stability, which will usually be the guy she labels her "boyfriend". Usually this is the guy that helps her financially, brings her stability, buys her gifts, etc.

2. The guy she is sexually attracted to (her fuck buddy/the sex guy). This is the guy she is sexually attracted to. He's the one she uses to fulfill her sexual desires. This one is pretty self explanatory I don't need to elaborate much.

3. The guy she use as emotional support (her "therapist"). This is the guy she always text, tells everything to, cries to. She broke up with her "boyfriend"? She texts you. Her friend just told her to fuck off? She comes to you. Her dog just died? She comes to you.

These are usually the main ones, but in some cases it goes even further than that. She can have a lot more peices sometimes. Here are some examples:

• The uber guy, which she uses for free rides

• The repair man. The guy she uses when she needs something fixed in her house, or when her car is broken.

• The photographer. The one that takes pictures for her Instagram account.

• The "career coach". The guy she asks for advice for her career, helps her with her resume etc...

These are just a few. There are a lot more types/peices she can have as part of her Frankenstein boyfriend project.

If you are friendzoned, you are probably part of a Frankenstein boyfriend project, even if you don't know it. Trust me if you are friendzoned by a girl, 99.9% chances are she has multiple guys in her friendzone and you're not the only guy in her friendzone. The best advice I can give is if you are in the friendzone, run. Cut contact with her. You are being manipulated by this girl, so she can use you as a peice. Don't mess around with this and find a girl who treats you right and isn't an entitled feminist.

I highly recommend you do your own research on this whole Frankenstein boyfriend project thing. I have already done my research and I understand most of it but I don't understand 100% of it yet. And I always recommend people to do their own research when I post about these things.

Hope you're having a great day!

Absolute facts this is a great video. Very well said.

So ok basically I've already made another post here about this girl but I'll re-explain. So basically: I'm in High-school. I'm in 10th grade, and I've been having a (probably) unhealthy obsession with this girl that's in 12th grade for almost a year now. Since it pretty much started when I got into High-school, a year ago. So the post I've made was like maybe 2 weeks ago during the summer break, but I just started again. Today was my first day of school, and it reminded me of how bad my obsession is. Like I was at the Tim Hortons at the other end if the street in front of my school with my friends (for those who don't know it's a Canadian fast food restaurant). And I was casually waiting at our table since I had ordered on the app, and the girl arrived with her friend group. And just the fact she was waiting behind my friend group and sat at the table next to us, drove me crazy that because I can't talk to her. That's how bad this is. And it's just super weird because I don't even knoe this girl. I mean I know people do have crushes on people they don't know, but for me it's my first time having one on someone I don't know. Especially this bad. The closest thing I've had to an interaction with her is one time she smiled at me, and I honestly don't even know if she was actually smiling at me.

I could talk to her. And I do have a friend that knows her well, but I've came to the conclusion that it's a bad idea. I think it will just feed into my obsession even more and will just make it worse since she's 2 years older than me, and probably won't like me back. Plus she will (probably) go to college in like a year. I also know that by the time I work the courage up to get to know her, and eventually ask her out on a date, it will probably be too late. The age gap is not problematic IMO, but in my situation I think it is problematic for me. If I actually wanted to get to know her and ask her out, I should've done it last year. It's too late now. I also know how much time it takes me to move on. And fuck man, she's way too pretty for me. She's really way out of my league. I'm like just this nerdy guy who wears glasses (well ok I guess that's irrelevant she wears glasses too), and she's like honestly the prettiest girl I've ever seen in my entire life she's probably the closest thing to a 10/10 I've ever saw appearance wise. I genuinely don't mean this in a weird way, she's just wow. It's the truth. And I know it's a huge danger for me because I'm scared I would put her on a pedestal. And it's probably one of the most dangerous thing you can do for your mental health as a guy.

I mean sur my best friend (who's in 11th) has a GF who just started college. But I don't see how a relationship between a high schooler and a person in college can work. And I'm not even saying that to be negative or a jerk about my friend, but it's just the truth (I haven't told him that tho). I think it will be hard for my best friend and his GF, and I will be there to support him if things go bad.

So essentially my question is: How do I move on from someone I don't even know and I know I can't have?

So I currently have a pair of TWS earbuds, the Technics AZ100s, which I really like the sound of them and the ANC is excellent too. But the government of NB (where I'm from) wants to ban pretty much every personal electronic devices from high schools (including phones and TWS earbuds, which is a shame because I almost payed $500CAD for my AZ100s), in February 2027. But MP3 players and IEMs are not on the list.

At first I looked at the Technics since I love my AZ100s, and I also have a Technics SU-V98 receiver which I really love too. But they only have one pair of IEMs, and it's their $2500+ IEMs. I know they have the same drivers as the AZ100s and all, but I'm not ready to spend that kind of money lol.

So does anyone have good budget IEM recommendations? Let me know please!

Ok so this is not really about the friendzone, but the reason I'm asking this here is because I feel like the advice on here is more genuine and honest and is not sugar coated like on most other subs.

So, I'm in High-school, and I need advice with a girl that's older than me. I just finished 9th grade in June, and I'm starting 10th grade in like a week and a half, and there's this girl that's two grades above me (so she's starting 12th grade) and basically I find her very attractive, physically to be clear. I think she's really pretty. And I can't stop thinking about her since summer break started. To clarify, I've never spoken to her or really even interacted with her. The only reason I know her name and her grade, is because my best friend's GF used to speak with her often. And to be fair I had many great opportunities to speak to the girl through her. But now it's too late because my best friend's GF is going into her first year of college. Because she's two grades above him, and my best friend is a grade above me. And I've also seen the girl's Facebook profile appear in my friend recommendations.

And now I did say earlier that I never really interacted with this girl, but there's one thing that happened tho, which I guess it's not really an interaction but let me explain: So basically I was, in the Tim Hortons next to my school (basically for those who don't know Tim Hortons is a Canadian fast food restaurant but that's not important), and I was in the line-up behind the counter waiting for my order with my friends, and I remember we were just talking and laughing and when I turned my head around toward where she was sitting at with her friends, I saw her looking at me (well I think she was), and she was smiling at me, but then I quickly turned my head back, but while doing so I remember seeing her from the corner of my eye also quickly turning her head back, and like not even a second after I started turning my head back toward her and I saw she was laughing. And honestly I couldn't tell if she was laughing at me, or if she was shy or something, but I saw she was looking at one of her friends and like laughing, but like I said I couldn't tell if she was laughing randomly, laughing at me, or if she was just shy. Now honestly this could all have been a coincidence, and honestly it probably was, but I thought it was worth mentioning this.

Now to be clear, I've never had any sort of relationship or romantic experience with anyone before. I've had crushes in the past of course, but that's about it. And to be fair most of my crushes have ended badly. And I also wanna say, Idk if I would call this a crush because I don't know this person. I know by the definition of the word, a crush can be someone you don't know, but I guess it's just like weird to me because I've never thought so much about a person I don't know, and I never really had a crush on someone I don't know.

Honestly, I don't think the age gap is a problem here. Like obviously I mentioned my best friend's relationship earlier. And like not only is it the longest relationship he has ever been in, but it's also probably the best relationship he has ever been in. He even told me that himself.

But I don't know if I should get to know her, or if I should just try to move on and not speak to that girl. Like I'm also honestly scared to approach or try to connect with girls in the last like 2 years because I've had really rough experiences with the last like two girls I've spoken to. Like the last one was not really a catastrophic experience and it might have honestly been a bit my fault, but the one before that was an absolute nightmare in my life. And that brings me to another concern I have which, I did say earlier that I don't believe the age gap is a problem, but because I have issues with my mother, I'm scared that since this girl is older than me that the attraction I feel to her is like some sort of coping mechanism my mind has made to like compensate with the fact I have a bad relationship with my mom. That would be fucked, but honestly I'm probably going way too far with this one.

So yeah the point I want to come to with this is: What should I do? Should I go speak to her? Or should I just not speak to her and like try to move on from whatever this is. Like I know if I don't go speak to her I might just regret it for like months, and heck who knows maybe even years. But at the same time, being in this situation, should I really go speak to this girl?

Will I ever talk to you? No I'm too scared. I'm too scared of going through the same bullshit again I've gone again and again. School starts in 2 weeks, and I know it's your last year because you're 2 grades above me, but I just don't have the balls to do it. We never spoke in our entire lifes and probably never will. And my best friend's GF was friends with you, and I should've took the opportunity but now it's too late because she's gone to college and has graduated. And do I regret not taking those opportunities? Yes I regret it a little. Will I regret not talking to you when you're gone next year? I probably will, and I will probably regret it for years and years. But I'm just too scared. I'm to scared to do it. And I don't even think I'll ever get any opportunities again, because we have a 2 years age gap, even if I think that a 2 age year gap is not a problem. But what ever happens, even if I think we'll never speak to each other, I'll always remember that time you looked at me in the eyes and smiled, and I'll probably remember it for at least a decade if not more, because I haven't got that from anyone let alone a girl in years. And on a side note, your probably have one of the prettiest smile I've ever seen, and you're probably one of the prettiest girl I've ever seen.

P.S: I don't know if I would call it a crush because I have never interacted with her.
