Â Cox has been seen supporting her ex at Dancing With the Stars the last few weeks with the duo’s daughter, Coco, according to UsMagazine.com. Â Arquette, who is currently dating Entertainment Tonight‘s Christina McLarty, says, “We’re pretty much in the friend zone. Â Though we love each other and we love to laugh and have a great time, it’s difficult.”
How do you know when you’ve permanently entered the friend zone with someone?
Cupid’s Advice:
Sometimes, no matter how romance you once were with someone, the “friend zone” is an inevitable situation. Â Here are some signs you’re in it:
1. Distance: If there’s always a good amount of physical distance between the two of you and he or she makes no effort to close that, it’s a sign that you may be destined to just be friends.
2. One of the boys: If he invites you out to watch the football game with a group of his guy friends and claps you on the back after each touchdown, you’re probably not his romantic interest.
3. Lack of moves: The thing is, if he’s really into you, he’ll eventually make a move in that direction even if he’s shy. Â If it’s been weeks and you’re still not feeling a spark, you probably never will.
