the phantom of the opera explains why the friend zone is complete bullshit and nice guys aren’t actually nice.

Wait I’m so confused which guy is supposed to be the nice guy?

Grab a seat because I’m gonna explain the whole plot.

So this girl hears a lovely voice and follows it to find the phantom who she thinks is the angel of music. She doesn’t run away when she sees his face because she feels sorry for him. he misunderstands her kindness and things she loves him. So he decides to crash a ball (right after she got engaged) and demanded a certain opera to be preformed with her as the star. The owners are like “fuck you” and she is starting to regret ever talking to the phantom. Then he sabotages the lead so they have to put her on the lead and then he kills the guy who saw him sabotage on stage while she’s preforming.

She is fucking terrified and realizes she made a big fucking mistake and has her fiance protect her. The phantom sees and gets super pissed and decides to crash another opera. She reveals his mask on stage to show everyone it’s fucking real and he kidnaps her and is like “I will let your fiance go if you live here and love me.” and when she was like “fine, just don’t hurt him” he realized that she doesn’t actually love him and in a rage, let them go.

Anywho, the “nice guy” is the phantom and the girl who already had a boyfriend later fiance is the girl who showed only a little bit of kindness and “nice guy” misconstrued as flirting.

Basically, friend zone is fake. Nice guys aren’t nice and the phantom of the opera is a great way to show that.
