No Man's Land. The place a wuss finds himself when he attempts to get into a girl's pants by placing them on a pedestal. Ironically, this actually repulses the girl he is attempting to lay, and usually the girl finds him boring and just uses him for personal enjoyment.
I actually prefer the GF to have a guy in her friend zone. After I'm done banging her, she can go talk to him about how I don't care about her feelings, because I don't give a fuck.

The Friend Zone is the name of the realm that one is banished to when they confess their feelings to the person that they like, only for them to respond with, "I think we should be friends." It is very hard to escape this realm, but not impossible.
Person 1: Dude I just got friend zoned
Person 2: Feelsbadman

A word used by the more pathetic guys that think girls are sex-vending machines. These guys typically think in terms of:

nice comments + good deeds + girl = sex

The term is used when they fail to get a girlfriend and think of having that said girl as a friend a "mission failure".
Jack: Aw man, I just got friend zoned by Lisa after all that hard work I put into being nice to her.

John: I heard "hurr durr, I keep putting niceness into this vending machine but no sex is coming out!". Seriously.

When you get rejected and they only want to be friends. That's doesn't mean they think you are too nice :)
You: hey I like you. Wanna go on a date?
Her/him: no sorry. We can be friends tho
You have been put in the friend zone

The state of being denied relationship status because the other considers you a "Friend they don't want to lose". This more commonly affects men, as women get too into the friendship to consider the other in a sexual or romantic way. Men are more likely to stick it out and try and get into her pants and/or heart. Most women do it unconsciously, they like the person so much they don't want risk losing the friendship. They would also say they don't want to lose the friend as an attempt to soften the rejection.
James: "Hey I really like you, so do you want to go see a movie or something."
Mary: "I would really like that, except you're such a good friend that I can't think of you like that."
James: 'Inside of his head' "Damn, not the friend zone."

Basically where a man ends up when a girl finds out that she can make him his "boy friend" without having sex or other equally gratifying contact with him. It's an especially bad place for the guy, because it means that he's in for relentless crying and bitching and suffering when she's in-between boyfriends. In other words, you're the first person she goes to when she needs a cry and a bitch, but the last person she'd actually date or have sex with. If she asks you how to get a man, knowing you like her, then just shoot yourself right then, or move on.
Brody: So, what did she say?

Kyle: She said that "You're too good a friend for me to date you..." then later asked "Why can't I get a guy?"

Brody: Dude, you're in the friend zone. Look up urbandictionary.com and askmen.com so that this emotional castration doesn't happen to you again! XD
