The Friend-Zone

when a guy who is attracted to a girl spends too much time with her. This leads to the girl thinking that they are just friends, or in some extreme scenarios that he is a homosexual. The boy will usually keep spending time with her even after being repeatedly told by his friends to give up on her and move on. Pro Friend-Zoners can complete these actions with every girl they will ever come in contact with.

NOTE: not to be confused with Facebook "friending", which does not share any of the same consequences.

Andrew: For sure, she definitely thinks he a queer.

Friend Zone

The term men use to blame their own shallowness on women.
A girl makes a new friend who happens to be a guy, and he's really nice all the time and she thinks, wow, I have a really good friend. But it turns out the guy isn't interested in friendship, all he wants is to "get some".

Oftentimes, when the guy realizes that he's not going to "score" (how long that takes can vary), he suddenly drops his feigned friendship and moves on to other targets. The girl is left wondering what she did wrong to make such a good friendship fall apart, but of course what really happened was was that the girl had made the mistake of seeing the guy as a real person worthy of her friendship while the guy had only ever seen her as an object.

The guy justifies his behavior by getting together with his buddies and whining about being put in the "friend zone" so that he gets to feel like he's the victim.

Friend Zone

When you are in a deep emotional relationship with a member of the opposite sex that is in all ways exactly like a romantic relationship but without the physical connection. But unlike a romantic relationship, it is prone to end at any time and start up again without the inconvenience of actually breaking up.
