"Just a friend"; a term often used to describe someone of romantic interest who has yet to be referred to as "boyfriend" or "girlfriend" in public or even among close friends. Often, both parties have a shared romantic interest in each other and haven't told anyone yet. At other times, one of them may be stuck in the friend zone. The "just a..." part is a lame attempt to conceal this fact everyone else already knows. Otherwise, the term friend is used instead.

Get the JAF mug.an invisible one sided line used as an excuse and crutch by women to politely turn down someone for whom they don't have romantic feelings for. Friends cross this "line" by making known their romantic feelings to a friend with the friend not feeling the same way. It's been said that once this line is crossed it changes the friendship perhaps forever, effectively ending the friendship. It's one-sided because men have no such "line of friendship" and will often welcome a female friend respectfully making known her romantic interest. It's an excuse or crutch because the "line of friendship" doesn't exist if the girl is interested also. Women are usually uncomfortable once this "line" is crossed. Men frankly don't care and can let the relationship continue as normal but that seldom happens.
Yo answer your phone! Carl is calling again.
I can't answer that. He crossed the line of friendship last week. I don't want to give him false hope.
Girl, you know if that was James calling there wouldn't even be a line!

Get the CBC mug.To suddenly abandon the romantic pursuit of a chick especially after losing interest or realizing a romance with her won't go anywhere. It can happen during an initial conversation with a girl or after a few series of attempts to pick her up. It's so sudden, the girl is often surprised or even unaware that you lost interest in her and she may still play hard to get not realizing that the game is already over, leaving her stunned about what just happened. The sudden abandonment can be compared to the quickness of dropping a hot potato.
"Weren't you just talking to that chick a few days ago? What happened?"
"That was a few days ago. She was playing too hard to get. I had to drop a chick!"
