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."
"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.

When somebody, usually a male, gets needlessly offended by the fact that a girl isn't attracted to them romantically and/or sexually.
The female will then say something along the lines of, "I'd rather just be friends." This is apparently some sort of 'bitch move'.
See also girlfriend zone and butthurt.

Guy 1: "Did you hear about Sarah? I wasted two weeks on that bitch and she said she wanted to be friends!"
Guy 2: "Dude, you got friend zoned."
Guy 3: "Um, dude, she just doesn't have feelings for you. Get over it. She can't control who she's attracted to."

This is the worst position someone can be in, if they have feelings for someone. When a person develops romantic feelings for someone, but the other person only sees the relationship as just being friends. Because the two are around each other a lot, the one in love will harbor his/her feelings for the others. Only to become completely comsumed by this person. This leads to the one in love to complain to all his/her friends about the situation, and to become "pussy whipped" by they other.
Tom meets Amy, and falls in love. But Amy does not hold the same feelings. Therefore the two become friends, and thats it. Now Tom, being around Amy and just friends, harbors his romantic feelings for her. He then will become "pussy whipped" by her, and complain to all his friends about his feelings for her. At this point Tom should realize he is in the Friend Zone and move on.

“The ‘friend zone’ is like the penalty box of dating, only you can never get out. Once a girl decides you’re her ‘friend,’ it’s game over. You’ve become a complete non-sexual entity in her eyes, like her brother, or a lamp.” - Ryan Reynolds in Just Friends

A term often used in bitterness by men when women make the choice to not fuck someone. Often used by douchebags or people with Nice Guy Syndrome.
I went to the friend zone once to make some friends but it was just a bunch of angry mens' rights activists wearing fedoras.
