Trying out a change of setup... let me know what you think 😊

I got friend zoned years ago. Were best friends for years. She wanted to spend hours with me but then let her boyfriend come over for the good stuff. Back then I would have taken friends with benefits to get anything. Watched her go through about 15 guys. Now that she's packed on about 20 pounds I'm starting to look good. No thanks.

1. Spending more time with you 2. Length of text messages increasing 3. Uses more emojis 4. Speed of her replies increases 5. Prioritizes talking to you 6. Jealous of other women you interact with 7. Suggests date-like activities 8. Finds excuses to touch you 9. Stays up to date with your social media

Once you're in the friend zone you will never be her first choice. All you will ever be is a back up plan until she finds something better ( in her eyes )

Anna, it happened just like you said it would. This younger woman I have been seeing has had this ice wall up I guess for protection. Her exact message was that my consistency, patience and love for her has proven exactly why she wants me in her life. I remember you said that girls wear their feelings on their sleeves and if she says these three words she means it. Well she said it and I about fell apart.

Yup...it actually is mind boggling how she reacts as we were on messenger when I mentioned that there are " other " girls I am contemplating on dating and suddenly, shazaaamm !! She goes silent and goes on busy mode ... That sends her into another state of shock wondering how to respond. By tomorrow, the conversation will start again... Thanks for sharing Anna! Be well....

I actually love this new background look!!!!!! Can we keep it like this Anna

The only part of this that is the nearest to being a sign of ‘more than a friend’, is the physical touching. Everything else is still part of the friend zone. If she asks you out, instead of playing mind games, it’s the first time she’s being fair and honest.

Your new setup has a more relaxed and homey feeling. Much better. Maybe change it up, here and there, like occasionally an outdoor setting. Change is good at keeping your listeners attention.

Reminds me of how I asked out my first girlfriend. I worked in an arcade, she worked at the theater next door. On her days off she’d come by to hang out at the arcade despite not being a gamer. She once showed up just as I was ending my shift and so we hung out at a McDonald’s together for like three hours! I never once thought she was showing interest in me! I was totally clueless. We reconnected as friends last year after she had heard about my fiancée’s passing. We were talking about that and she was always amused that I had no clue. To be fair, I was a tall, very thin (135 lbs) nerdy guy with a lion’s mane of hair. Women weren’t exactly throwing themselves at me. She on the other hand was six feet of legs and curves where it counted! After we had been dating a while she thought she’d have to go as far as to show me her boobs for me to finally get the hint!

We all start as friends

We were in a relationship for about five years. The attraction was lost, and she decided to break up with me. It happened last month, in August. She definitely expressed some mixed feelings or conflicting ideas about things she doesn't want to do, but on the other hand, she still enjoys activities like watching movies and going to hockey games. Interestingly, we have plans to go ice-skating on Christmas Day at 8:30 PM at Enchant. there was one time we hung out at our house and I end up cooking dinner. She is definitely hot and cold with communication. She will respond to some text but not others.

Allow me to share this story! I've been talking to someone for a year and a half. We already met three times, she already introduced me to her children, her parents, we even prayed together which was special, and just recently I found out that when I declined her invitation to come over turns out she cooked for me. At that moment I had a cold which was a valid reason so yeah those were a major giveaway when someone likes you more than a friend.

Love the new background format. Very personable

I love the legit background! Very personable.

Ahhh, when the curtains drop....I would enjoy sharing in that workspace Anna, where I may endure glimpses of the previous, rambunctious voice....loving it! 😛

New setup looks welcoming, professional, and calming!

I've been friends with this one girl for 10 years. After my most recent breakup, we started hanging out more and getting closer. We shared a kiss at one point and though we both liked it, we initially decided to remain friends. However, now she's showing signs of romantic interest by laughing at all my jokes, touching me in a flirting manner (in more places than one 😉), and all the signs presented here. We even have several trips planned including a monster truck show and a Disneyland trip for her birthday. I've made a move several times, but she's been responding (positively) in steps. I'm thinking it may be because she's suspicious of the other women around me. 😅

I watch your video all the time they are helpful thanks

Really cool background and video Anna! I always stick to your useful words and adivces. Thank you ;)

Wow, Anna, you're REAL?! Hi!! The usual background looks more 'TV Professional' - green screen/special FX. This is more 'KZfaq Professional' - Cosy, homely and more personal/1on1/private. Both are great either way. And you... beautiful clear voice, engaging and always stunning (Maybe save the private ones for once a week, or just for me x 😉)

I like how you brits sneak an "r" into the end of some words on occasion. Like Social Media "r".

I have a female friend whom I really like as just a friend. She’s recently shown some subtle interest in me and I don’t want to hurt her and I don’t want to ruin our friendship because we get along so well as friends, but sometimes she’ll turn the conversation into a sexual one or mention something like she likes how kissable I am. Last time she gave me a back massage and even cooked for me. She’s a really good friend, but I sense that she wants to take that further--I could be wrong, but I trust my intuition. We met through her mom whom was a former coworker of mine. She’s attractive, but she’s just not my type, I find this particularly difficult because I’ve always wanted some female friends and never really had any. I think I have a hard time thinking of the right words to say to her to preserve the friendship. Does anyone have any advice on how to approach this? And what to say? I appreciate y’alls help. 🤲🏽

There are 2 women at work who I'm almost certain like me but I'm in this weird end of relationship situation and I notice what they're doing but I purposely hold back from reacting to them because I feel like I don't have any business right now starting anything new with someone. I always stop short of heavily flirting back. I'm still friendly with them and they still show signs but it's been a while and I think they'll eventually just give up. It's frustrating because I can't do anything.

It looks great. Just want you to know that I think you project a very "classy" look and present your information in the same, classy, but informative way. kudos

Likes me or like-likes me....that is the question. She used to work at the bakery I go to a lot, and we chatted and connected so many times. Heck, about a year ago, while I was working on my laptop, I saw her lift her head up in thought, before turning to me and saying, "How was your summer?" It was kind of random, but I appreciated her interest. On her last day (Jan 2023), she said my coffee was on her. One day, I ran into her at the bar. We chatted, and I said something about her bravely coming out of her shell better than me because of her singing karaoke during her first time here. Not long after, when she and her friends were singing again, she gestured me toward them and pointed to the lyrics on the screen. What's funny is I had told her I didn't like being in the spotlight during the said "out of shell" conversation. Not to criticize her encouragement. Just saying it's interesting and I'm wondering about her motive, perspective, and if it could've meant something. But perhaps not. I'm starting to wonder if she has a boyfriend. I saw her a few nights ago at a different bar. I pretended I didn't see her in the dancing crowd, she noticed me (I think after I accidentally bumped into her), put her hand on my arm to get my attention, and said hi. It was a very brief talk, given the dancing and loudness. So of course, I did not ask for her number or to be my date at the swing dance next month. But it's not just that. She was with a group of friends, and one of them was a guy she talked with. He _could_ have been her boyfriend. What would be the signs (aside from kissing, obviously). I'm curious about the connection (or contradiction) between the potential "she-likes-me" signs and the idea of her having a boyfriend. He's the main reason I didn't ask her anything. Should I, whether it be phone number or swing dance invite?

Great information thank you Joyanima!

I don't want somebody sending me long texts, or send them to anyone unless it's absolutely neccesary.

Hi Anna. Prefer the former setup. You always chose the right background to complement the outfit you were wearing 😊

I got this female friend that i have known for a long time and when ever im out in the garden haveing a cigarette or im chilling in my flat she sometimes calls me first and i ones said im not toping up my phone any more and she straight away wanted me to get snap chat so wii could still stay connected with each other and sometimes she says you look good with you know hair cut and touch my hair 😁

Love the new background 😍

I'm not sure why everyone is complimenting the background setting I was more focused on the computer screen LOL but hey these are some great tips I have learned a lot just by watching thanks.

I like the new background instead of the green screen stuff.

I love the new set up

I've gotten all 10 from her, I've just told her that I'd just like a Good F---ing Friend of her at this time.. We have had some very deep conversation about things over all.. She was agreeable as well.. Her husband died about half a year ago, as well my partner died about 2.5yrs ago.. I understand everybody is different as far as the time amount in which to re-engage.. Just wanted some insight from other folks that might have been in a similar situation.. Thanks..

MY friend AKA as my GOD sis. i have known for 11 years confuses me. i took her to prom our first year & recorded music together. we have been on many vacations together. She's spent the night at my house many times. we watched countless movies together. we have even recently been sharing the bed on vacations when the other ones are taken. last December she changed. She's more open and vulnerable with me than she has been in 11 years. we took a cruise with my family. she had me pick out her outfits. put on jewelry and even wiped dirt outta my eyes in the jacuzzi. every chance we had to sit together we did. when people bring us up. she gives me the brother zone thing.

Hi Anna , Happy Wednesday .. not the netflix series :P , Thank you for all the videos guides. I have known this lady for years back and as fate came knocking 2 years backs we suddenly grew a strong connection. I believed I had broken her Personal Space of My Lady by giving her a necklace as a Christmas Present. She blushed and welcomed me to clip it on her neck as she raised up the back of her shoulder length hair. It's a mini heart shaped necklace , and I told her that now I ever closer to her heart. Till this day , she is still wearing it. Didn't want to go overboard , but I should have kissed her there and then but I'll wait for the right time though to have our very 1st Kiss. We all have our busy lives no doubt but as for now we are exchanging text like 10x more every day. I'll brave myself the next time we meet , which is soon.

I'd say the screensaver on the computer is a slight distraction from your own beauty

My friend just asked if she and her daughter could go on a weekend out of town with me. It was the first time we had spent more than few hours together. Do you think our relationship is changing?

My friend of 7 years wants to spend the night at my house for the first time i guess it aint over till its over

Yes keep it simple!!

Nice new background ☺ It's great to learn from female coaches, about the things girls love etc. Here I'm following my own Path as a Man, following my dreams and purposes. Than a woman who gains my respect, can be treated in the way you allways explain 😊 Even than a Man must allways know when a girl is testing your masculinity. It's a test, not a red flag that comes from her Femininity💌

So when she asked me to her place after we met at the dog park many times and talked, this is a green light to date? We're still friends, but from a distance. I was not interested.😮

Hints? I don't get them. Maybe I would if someone sent me some, but no one knows my phone number. Social media? who me? hahaha living the Sigma life

Could you please do a video on women's body language.

Guys , beware of the " Me too movement ".

I have many kadys that would like a relationship with me ? However I love my single life ,and won,t ever think twices of being in any relationship ever again. So I now have many lady's that except me as a great friend and no relationship. Single and freedom is my life style

Nice!

For the past two weeks on weekend I would spend time with a girl and she seems to likes it and I feel like she would be sad that the time is less and when it getting dark I hope I can spend more times and take her home hehehehe

PERFER THIS BACK ROUND💚 ANN✌🏽OUT

I work with a female colleague a lot younger than me, and she does make gestures through touch as well as getting on really well, she would order me takeaway if I am stuck on a night shift, usually if it’s touch it’s on my arm or my back or something the other day I was exiting a room in front of her and she kinda touched my bottom briefly with her hand, I didn’t say anything but I felt kinda awkward not knowing what to say or do 🥴?

🙋‍♂️ Hit me with a train and I'd still be curious as to what mode of transportation that hit me. 🤷‍♂️

Hmm … how is it that as a true soul mate you should be her 'best friend' while you want to avoid being trapped in the 'friend zone'?

I know someone who stated that she would be appearing cold due to being focused. Either the lack of Emojis is due to lack of interest or due to being this foused, eh? Hence, Emojis are difficult for me to interpret...

Setup looks great. But my gaze is always fixated on you lovely lady.

I got a new coat it is a duster and my friend who I think like me said "you look good" well stroking my arm and we are going to the cinema on Friday too she planned the time of the movie

For of if of one doesn't common it's bc of one just looking into your eyes n just enjoying your beautiful smile y3 🌱🌳❤3love both y3

anna keeps popping up on my you tube, im sure shes trying to get my attention ;) lol

What about suddenly asking me to go out and do stuff with her?Finding a reason to hug me?

Never heard of anyone coming back from the friend ZONE.

The background is nicer.

I can tell

if we can't communicate without an emoji ??

In reality it's not as easy or straight as it seems from this video. I liked the video. But reality is diff. Most women makes things confusing on purpose to make men go crazy.

She might, but I still have a right to say "No." No two marriages are identical. We have "irretrievable breakdown" of marriage as the sole ground for a divorce. That requires us to assess each marriage individually, although the basics still exist. A couple who had separated, met fortnightly for sex. The judge was of opinion that they were being friends, not spouses.

Is Joy a teacher here in the States?

Love the new background 🎉

What about if a girl sends you pictures of herself and pictures of her with her grand kids

1. TEXTING. 2. PARAGRAPH. 3. EMOJIS. 4. SPEED. 5. PRIORITY. 6. OTHER WOMEN. 7. ACTIVITIES. 8. TOUCH. 9. SOCIAL MEDIA. LISTEN ALL CONTENT FOR MORE DETAILS; THANK YOU BEAUTIFUL JOYANIMA 😘 🌹 ❤️ ✌️ 🇵🇷

What if the girl I like keeps using my first name in every interaction we have?

I have a very good friend who identifies as a lesbian and is in a relationship with a woman but goes out of her way to touch me when we are working or hanging out. She low key asks me to stick around or invites out for a drink here and there. We spend a lot of time together. She assures me that she's not into men, but when it comes to me, I'm her go to for pretty much everything. We have a deep emotional connection and have shared that with each other. It's all very confusing though.

i mentioned another girl in front of her but not to her. she flipped out and had all her friend there on her side saying the girl i was talking to was a bad option. super jealous in my opinion. Am i correct?

You always look fabulous Anna.

I'll never deal with women ever again.

10 signs she's settling cause she cant get chad anymore

Don't miss out boys green flags 🌈🥰👈😜💯

Anna sitting down ? Something different lol

Mine ask me if I had another love interest.

She wanted to be more than freinds so I moved to another continent.

Quit wasting all your time on one girl

Who is Anna..... Daily uploads, polished media presentation, physiological content and scripted. Maybe a collaboration with another Content creator like diary of a ceo. I think we all like to know someone's experience and qualifications in a given field. Like other content creators we don't actually know them but because they have shared certain aspects of their lives with their audience it builds trust. Biggest example is Jordan Peterson and his daughter who may of been the driver of this as she did it first as a content creator. Anyway hope you consider this and have a great day.

Haha for of no this forbidden to attack of Anna yet only without your permission holy happening of Anna just getting sweeter everyday y3 ty for keeping your mind in alignment with of one's inner heartbeat 🌱🌳❤3love

Nothing more fun than to see a guy stuck in the friend zone. They got zero situational awareness and are allowing the girl to take advantage of them. That's what happens when we have a society that focuses more on the outside than the inside. If you don't know life and yourself, how in the world would you think you can figure other people out? Use your brain and think about stuff.

Lol who

😘😍😎🤩😘😍😎

This video concerns "normal women". But there aren't normal women anymore. Well i cannot find them.

She got time to play, and there's no time to play in this f*cking LIFE!!

Crap.

Women don't want me at all.i can't get women.

I've been subscribed and watching for years so I'm very familiar with your usual setup. I feel this new setup is more intimate as it brings me into your space and compliments your natural femininity Anna 🙌🏻😌 🤗

Every day, more lies!
