"Lets just be friends"....Translation: "I don't just want you to mourn the loss; I want to remind you of it every day. I want you to suffer. I want you to envy. I want you to die slowly, a bit at a time. And I want you to smile and thank me for it."
Guy: I love you hun!
Girl: Me to ^_^
*five minutes later*
Girl: I think we need to get to know each other better, lets just be friends
Guy: Just Friends? *dismay*
Girl: Me to ^_^

if you and a guy have a small connection, but when a friend of his asks about you two, he will say you are "just friends" when likely, it either is or he wants the opposite.

Rejection, basically, once someone says this to you, you're thrown into the friend zone, this is a hard place to get out of and you know you fucked up somewhere if this is where you end up.
Fairly good looking guy meets fairly good looking girl, a few weeks later they can't stop talking to eachother, the guy is really into her and thinks she feels the same way, he is about to say something to the girl, meanwhile the girl is thiking "great, another friend" the conversation goes like this-
guy-i've been having a great time with you lateley.
girl-me too.
(at this point the girl thinks "wow, we are so much alike", the guy is thinking "thats a good sign")
guy-i kind of have a confession to make - i have felings for you
girl-i'm so sorry, i just see us as friends
(at this point, the girl is thinking "i see us as just friends, i'm not into you in that way" the guy is thinking "for fuck sake!")
so, going by that example, the guy got thrown into the friend zone because he went about getting the girl in the wrong way, now they may still be friends, but there will be tension for a long time, other typical reasons why you might hear these words are-you're ugly/have a bad personality/the person who says this isn't single.

A girl can say this to assure you (the boyfriend) that her male friend is 'just a friend'
If your girlfriend says this about a guy she has been a bit too friendly towards for a while, she is lying. probably.

Man: Who's this guy you've been hanging with? He just touched your leg!
Woman: Oh relax! We're just friends!
