friend zone syndrome

An affliction where a patient uses "friend zone" unironically.
The patient sees friendships with people of sexual appeal as a failure.

In fact, this is actually a symptom of a number of other hidden problems (failure to meet new people regularly, failure to negotiate sexuality in an upfront way, failure to enjoy the sorts of people one is interested in sleeping with, and so on)

A: "Someone I know isn't giving me sex. I mean, I haven't been upfront, because I fear even polite rejection... But the only thing I want from them is sex, and they're the only person I am going to meet this year. Please, help me get out of the friend zone!"

B: "That's your problem: you've got friend zone syndrome."

girl best friend

your girl best friend will always be there for you when you need her or don’t. she is something that you don’t ever want to lose. she’s trustworthy and honest. she’ll cuddle you like a big brother or hold you like a younger brother. no matter what you did, she’ll be there to text you goodnight or good morning. she will love you and cherish you even if you don’t know it.

“you are my girl best friend and i thank you for always being there for me.”

best guy friend

The guy a girl always comes running back to with all her problems she's afraid her friends would judge her for. Best guy friends are different from your regular guy friends because you can talk to them them about anything and they tend to be very sympathetic and caring. Either the guy or the girl friend at one time or another complains about being in the friend zone but neither one of them actually does anything about it. Rumors often circle around that you and your best guy friend are dating and he'll often smile and respond with a shy "nah". There is often cute flirtatious tension between you and your best guy friend.

Girl: Period cramps make me look and feel like shit today.

Best Guy Friend: Aww no, you look gorgeous. I wish I could make you feel better somehow :(

Friends with digital benefits

Two people that are just friends that also happen to sext, and send sexually explicit photos by phone or email with one another.

We aren't really hooking up; we're friends with digital benefits.

Let's just be friends

What a girl says to you when she'd rather be with an asshole who will use her, abuse her, and eventually break her heart, even though she knows that you would never do those things to her.

When a girl says to you, "let's just be friends", that's like your mom telling you, "the dog died, but you can still keep it if you want to."

You: I love you! :)
Wench: Let's just be friends..
You: Gee thanks, couldn't you have pushed me off a two-story building, or shot me? It would have hurt less. :(

Let's just be friends

Real meaning: "I'll talk to you for about a day after our break up, but that's it."

You're a great guy and all, but let's just be friends.

fair-weather friend

A friend who is only around when they need you.

Bill is a fair-weather friend because he only comes over when I have weed.
