When someone you're talking to doesn't want to be friends, just academic acquaintances. This is a downgrade from the friendzone.
Person 1: Hey, is Sally going to be joining us on our beach trip?
Person 2: No, she said she'd rather just do homework with me instead.
Person 2 is in the academic zone.

The next step up from friend zone.. this is not a zone you want to be in my friend. This is when you’ve messed up too much to go back to being a friend, but she’s choosing to keep you around out of convenience. You are.. bro-zoned
Dude texts you “how are you feeling” just to follow it up with a “so your roommate is out of town this weekend 👀?”… wow. Your bro-zoned bitch.
