The Friend Zone (2016)

Colleen Kinslow: Skyler Isabel Newfield

Quotes 

• Skyler Isabel Newfield : Hold on, what is this friend zone?

  Erin Newfield : It's a pathetic excuse that guys make up to blame women for all their problems.

  Shawn Calvert : The friend zone is where girls put nice guys like Charlie. It's what happens when a guy likes a girl, but she just wants to be friends.

  Skyler Isabel Newfield : This is something guys talk about?

  Shawn Calvert : Yeah, it's tragic really. See, once you're in the friend zone, there's no way out. And then you have a world full of Charlies running around with unrequited feelings towards girls who wanna use them, just because they're nice to them.

  Erin Newfield : Sounds like a pretty lame-ass club. Not to mention it is incredibly misogynistic.

  Carrie Hoffman : Yeah, Nick can date high school...

  Nick Sloan : COLLEGE freshmen...

  Carrie Hoffman : "College freshmen," break up with them after three weeks, and that's different... how?

  Nick Sloan : A, It's completely different. And B, Who told you about that?

  Erin Newfield : I believe the line was: right now, at this moment, I need space. You weren't even clear with her about it! You strung her along.

  Shawn Calvert : It's different, because the women actually want to be friends.

  Nick Sloan : Bullseye! My new rule: never call a girl back.

  Nick Sloan : To Erin: Ok, what about Danny then?

  Erin Newfield : Danny and I are just friends.

  Shawn Calvert : Bullseye!

  Erin Newfield : He KNOWS we're just friends!

  Skyler Isabel Newfield : Oh, c'mon. He's texted you six times already since you left Detroit.

  Erin Newfield : - To Skyler: You, stop touching my phone. - To Nick: And YOU! You do not know the whole story. Why am I not entitled to choose who I want to be with? I shouldn't have to feel bad because a guy likes me and I don't feel the same way!

• Skyler Isabel Newfield : I have a question. A problem, really. See, every time I hook up with a guy, they wanna go out again. Where do friends with benefits fit into this friend zone?

  Shawn Calvert : Maybe your problem is your tendency to lock men into bathrooms and force them to engage in conversation against their will.

  Skyler Isabel Newfield : Shut up, I'm serious.

  Shawn Calvert : Ok, well, here's the thing. I actually think women are more ok with casual sex than men.

  Skyler Isabel Newfield : What?

  Shawn Calvert : Yeah. See, for every Nick out there, there are ten Charlies. The hopeless romantics, the nice guys who want more. The problem is, the Charlies of the world are a silent majority. It's in their very nature to be shy, which is a real catch-22.

  Skyler Isabel Newfield : And the Nicks?

  Shawn Calvert : They're still out there.
