The cross faze period between two people where the relationship could go one of two ways: Total platonic friendship or Romantic partnership. Usually the former occurs, regardless of whether the two people are attracted to each other or not due to the high school mentality that risking a friendship is a risk they can't bare to make. Two people might be great for each other, but they are either to awkward or stubborn about the mention of idea with each other, often due to pressure from friends that they would be just "perfect for each other". This happens to both girls and boys, alike.
Deborah: Who do you think I'd be good with?
Alex: How about Henry?
Deborah: Everybody says that, I don't-I don't get it.
Alex: You two would be great together, though.
Deborah: Maybe. But he's such a good friend and I really don't want to put all my eggs in one basket...I don't even know him that well.
Alex: Who said you had to know him? That's what dates are for!
Deborah: I'd honestly much rather just remain in the FriendZone.

FriendZone is the name of YouTuber JoshuaDaniel's Fanbase. He does not use the word much but that is what his fan base is called.

When you constantly talk to the same girl over and over, expect to slide in and you get instantly rejected.
Glenn -“Kayleigh, were definitely fucking tonight”
Kayleigh -“umm no I’ll bet you $100 we aren’t”
Hey did everyone hear, Glenn got friendzoned by Kayleigh, just like Brendan does with every girl he’s friends with

That awkward moment when your top gal tells you that "you're a great guy", and you just know it's the end of the world. She might as well cut your dick off and frog-march you to the nearest monastery because you've just been banished to the 'Zone, and you ain't never graduating out of that place.
Me: I cannot sleep because I am thinking about you. I am ALWAYS thinking about you, since you first wrote to me. I can't explain or control my feelings. I just like you. That's it. I miss you so much. I don't know why. I am not in control of my emotions. All I know is that I like you, I like you, I like you, I like you, I LIKE YOU!!!! Before I knew you I was happy-single, but now I am sad. Every day we don't talk is horrible for me. Did you meet somebody else, or did I do or say something wrong? Did you just want to be friends, and did you not like it when I started to be obvious that I don't just want to be friends?
My top gal: I saw what happened with your feelings and I can't let it be, because I'm not single. I really like you as a person. You are good man.
Me (to my homies): Oh man, she put me in her FriendZone.
One of my homies: At least the FriendZone is better than the EnemyZone. EnemyZone SUCKS!!!

A particularly aggravating metaphorical place, that people end up in when someone they are interested in only wants to be friends. It is impossible to get over someone while in the friendzone, because, as friends, you still see them too often for them to be erased from your memory, and yet, you cannot be with them the way you want.
Person 1: Hypothetically, how would you react if I told you I like you?
Person 2: I'm sorry, I don't mean to hurt you, but I want to just be friends.
Person 1 is now in the friendzone.
Person 2: I'm sorry, I don't mean to hurt you, but I want to just be friends.
Person 1 is now in the friendzone.

Basically a verb form of friendzone: To put someone who loves you and wants to DATE you in the zone of just friends, like if you were friendzoned, then you basically got rejected.
