Reverse Friendzone 

When a guy doesn't want to complicate the relationship with sex, and places the female (or male, that's cool too...) in the forlorn friendzone. Basically this shit almost never happens

"I put her in the Reverse Friendzone. She wanted to have sex, but I had to put my foot down."

reverse friendzone 

when your love interest friendzones you and in an effort to spark him/her interest, you pretend to friendzone him/her too by acting less interested or by talking about other girls/gals while actually still being in love with that person because you're unable to move on

Bob: "i've heard women are turned on by men who show no interested in them"
Chris: "yeah, I've heard about that too and tried to reverse friendzone my love interest Alice after she friendzoned me by pretending i wasn't interested but it didn't work"

Reverse Friendzone 

When the girl takes the first move and the guy puts her in the friendzone.

The difference between the friendzone and the reverse friendzone is when the guy is in the friendzone it is just the friendzone, but when the girl is in the friendzone. It is the reverse friendzone because it is thought that more boys are put into the friendzone than girls, therefore it is called "the Reverse Friendzone" because it is not stereotypical.
Girls are usually put into this place when a guy is too shy to say yes or when he doesn't want a girlfriend.

Clara: So what happened with you and Jake??

Tiffany: Well, I told him how I felt and he said that he's not ready for a long-term relationship but he also said that we can still be friends.

Clara: Being in the Reverse Friendzone sucks, but unlike the Friendzone, sometimes boys can change their minds...
