When someone rejects another when asked out. Many friend-zoned people suffer from extreme butthurt over being friend-zoned, so cold and bitter definitions are posted on dictionary sites like this one. They also don't seem to understand that a man/woman has the right to reject someone if they see them only as a friend.
Man, she put me in the friend zone! Better angrily vlog about how she practiced her own free will.

When you try to hook up with some girl, but get rejected and there is said 'lets just be friends'

Then you are Friend Zoned.

What is quite possibly one of the worst places a guy could ever be in if you like someone. It doesn't matter the situation, once you're in, you feel like you're in a cage.

It consists of a multitude of possible emotions that you will succumb to. Mostly jealousy, defeat, hopelessness and a strange sense of knowing that your aspirations are an impossibility. You'll constantly know that the person you like will not like you in the same way. But for some reason, you're still friends with her. You feel like you can get her back, but it's not gonna happen.

And it's worse when they tell you about their significant other/crush/boyfriend. You might see them walk further away from you every day. You become a cushion, having to watch them with the person they THINK is perfect for them. But deep down, you know it's not true. But they think they are, and you have to acknowledge it as a reality.

It's hell on earth, guys.
I'm in the friend zone. An ever-so confining area of regret, jealousy and defeat. I won't be able to get her.

What you attain after you fail to impress a woman you're attracted to. Usually initiated by the woman saying, "You're such a good friend". Usually associated with long days of suffering and watching your love interest hop from one bad relationship to another. Verb tense is "Friend-ed".
"I spent all that money on a date, just to find out she put me in the Friend Zone(said with eerie echo)."

"You know that hot girl I've been talking to? She just Friend-ed me."

A friendly type of "rejection" when one is attempting to cultivate a romantic relationship with another. The person will call you a "brother" or a "friend," and say they can't feel anything but platonic energy with you. Usually this happens to men who pursue a woman they're attracted to...but it generally can happen to anybody.
So, this is what he said last night: "I love that I can talk to you about anything. You're not like other women. I could never say this to(insert love interest's name here). But you...you're just like one of the guys. A real friend, you know?" Six months of pursuing this guy, only to be...accepted...into the friend zone.
