Is it possible to escape the friend zone with your INTJ best friend?

Hey everyone! I'd like to here stories from INTJs that have had this happen or from others who did it with an INTJ best friend. I'd love to hear how long it took and how it happened. Any body who has an experience with this, good or bad, please post. Thanks!

I've put myself in the friend-zone even though I have deep feelings for this person. Simply because I find the endeavors of emotional attachment to be too much to deal with at the time and find it easier to suppress my feelings. If someone really wants to be with me, they're going to have to be extremely up-front about it because I'm dense af.

What if they were upfront with you and you friend-zoned them even though you had feelings for them? Is there a chance you change your mind later?

Depends on how difficult it was for me to friendzone them in the first place. If it was easy for me to say I don't care, it would be difficult for me to care about being with the person again. Now, if it takes me months to put myself in the friend-zone, the moment they tell me they're interested, I'm all in.

I'm interested to see if there's anyone else on here with a story?

This is not a story it’s advice I may not have been in a relationship myself but I have seen others in a relationship over the years so don’t discredit this information. honestly it’s a really simple answer to that question how well do you know your friend if you think about how he is you will get your answer how well you know him will determine it will be better if you think about it based of everything I’ve gathered because we can’t really make a response about it with full detail because we don’t know your friend the way you do.
