Just because a cliché exist does not mean it’s actually true. People that are complaining about a lot on the Internet are maybe more likely to spend too much time on the Internet in general and by that are more likely to have a lack of social skills in the real world.
To counter that anecdotally: in my social circle a lot couples spawned from a previous social connection and there are only a few that meet through dating apps or where a random hook up in the first place.
Do you have any statistics backing up that claim or is that purely anecdotal/an subjective assumption?
Again, why is friend zoning such a cliche? Because women usually turn down men they’ve already met.
Okay, so the latter.

Maybe they turn down men they already considered and rejected? Strangers are still being considered.
