  • llehctim, on 06/23/2009, -5/+486the zone of pain and the marriage zone should definitely overlap...a lot
  • Snoogs, on 06/23/2009, -3/+331I've thrived in that awkwardness bubble for years... it's not so bad, except the awkwardness.

  • thecitysleepz, on 06/23/2009, -2/+203All I see is a woman with her hands behind her head and legs spread. I'm going to stick it in her zone of pain, if you know what I mean.
  • MikeEnIke, on 06/23/2009, -1/+201nor mentally it seems.
  • ouka10, on 06/23/2009, -30/+218Haha null set...guess there's no such thing as being both mutually attracted and physically attracted

  • plaguepony, on 06/23/2009, -4/+129A Well reasoned approach would also consider the Hot/Crazy Scale.

  • darkmotion, on 06/23/2009, -0/+64If you can't find them, then you should stick to the friend zone.
  • matthewkg, on 06/23/2009, -0/+60Approaches infinity.

  • AmnesiacJack, on 06/23/2009, -1/+49I tried to make sense of the diagram but honestly I kept seeing something else...

  • jazzmess, on 06/23/2009, -1/+47Well judging by the chart, the relationship temptation zone is where you have someone who is either highly mentally attractive but not so much physically, OR highly physically attractive, but not so much mentally. IE, you're really really attractive in one way but unattractive in the other. Someone who's extremely hot but a complete idiot would fall into that category - you may feel tempted to be in a relationship with that person, despite it being a bad idea.

    Of course, if someone is extremely mentally attractive, I think they would have to be truly hideous for me to not contemplate a relationship with them, but whatever.
  • XenoSNK, on 06/23/2009, -0/+44Holy ***** ***** I had no idea what the ***** the ladder theory was and I just had to come to the realization that I'm a cuddle bitch. I just set up a date with a girl to talk about what exactly me and her were, but that website nailed it entirely.

    *****, tonight is going to go so poorly.
  • LordStryker, on 06/23/2009, -10/+54Right between the legs.
  • pudnuck, on 06/23/2009, -0/+43it's digg thank you very much.
  • inactive, on 06/23/2009, -3/+45Thanks.
  • cesarandreu, on 06/23/2009, -0/+41There is no outside of circle!
    WHO TOLD YOU THERE WAS SOMETHING OUTSIDE OF THE CIRCLES?!?!??
  • DecoyQ, on 06/23/2009, -1/+42This has to be the best description of men and women and their relationships I've ever read. I'm very glad someone posted it.
  • stripesonfire, on 06/23/2009, -3/+41when things get awkward, *****.
  • danr2c2, on 06/23/2009, -2/+39Why do I just see an armless fat chick with her legs in the air ***** out a basketball? Surely I can't be the only one.
  • pt4117, on 06/23/2009, -0/+37Dugg for the How I Met Your Mother reference.
  • Pegritz, on 06/23/2009, -1/+36That's why I keep it x = y.
  • Psygnosis, on 06/23/2009, -1/+36http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:How_I_Met_Your_M ...
  • paperclipsNsoup, on 06/23/2009, -2/+35I live in the awkward bubble too... The kind where we screwed once on her BFs bed a few weeks before she dumped him for cheating...

    Hasn't happened since.

    Very awkward.
  • billpilgrim, on 06/24/2009, -4/+37this isn't that surprising. All you have to know about females is that a majority of them are miserable people and ego FREAKS. They will kill your self esteem just so they can feel like they're in control. As soon as a girl treats you crappy, tell her to go ***** herself, because there are over 9000 of girls just like them, and the one you think you love is just like the billions others out there. They will play games with you and try to take you down, but you can gain the upper hand if you don't buy into their bull ***** games and constantly try to make them happy. Seriously, guys play just as big of a part in their own dating demise as the females, quit believing they're the one, they're not.

    Oh, Protip: If you aren't sure if she's attracted to you, she's not.
  • AngelX, on 06/23/2009, -0/+32You know what they say... No matter how hot a girl is, some guy, somewhere, is sick of her *****.
  • TheWebSwinger, on 06/23/2009, -1/+32You're thinking of the "fun zone".
  • stevets, on 06/23/2009, -0/+29She knew what he was doing when you guys hooked up. That's why she did it.

    She didn't like you enough to keep on keepin' on, but she trusted you enough for some revenge sex.

    Some is better than none, I guess.
  • comment23, on 06/23/2009, -0/+28Hey, look it's 2003!
  • NewMarkOrder, on 06/23/2009, -2/+30I question the validity of this chart. Being a life affirmed geek I can attest that the friend zone is substantially larger and more treacherous that the chart makes it appear.

    Also I only have to look outside to see that, unfortunately, average human attractiveness is not proportional to intellect as the chart suggests.

    Otherwise, nice graph ;)
  • PicklePower, on 06/24/2009, -2/+29Woahhhh....rorr.im is "mirror" backwards (with a dot in it). Never noticed that until now.
  • netneutrality, on 06/24/2009, -0/+26http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Referer
  • Takfam, on 06/23/2009, -3/+28Why quantify this *****? It is so much easier if you just accept the wise words of Peter Griffin:
    "We all know that no woman anywhere wants to have sex with anyone, and to titillate us with any thoughts otherwise is - is just bogus. "
  • renanrrinaldi, on 06/23/2009, -3/+27Still a virgin?
  • solistus, on 06/24/2009, -0/+24You mean this funny picture on the internet does not accurately catalog every possible human relationship?

    STOP THE PRESS!!!
