The art of distancing a "lover", or good friend in an orbital space. Not too far, not too close. When they get too far, you pull them back in, when they get too close, you push them back out into the "safe zone". This keeps the person in your life, exactly where you want them.
The bitch wants to get married, and I don't. The sex is great, but I'm just not ready for commitment. "Safe Zoning" her would be to ignore or be non-committal to her emails and phone calls and when you've totally pissed her off, send her a dozen roses, fuck her, and repeat the cycle.

A "zone" or area in which a human being feels safe - usually some place familiar, where they feel they have some control over what happens.
A "safe zone" can be a phyiscal place or even a state of mind - one can be "outside their safe zone" when standing in front of a crowd, giving a speech.

I get very nervous in front of a crowd of people, so that is obviously not part of my safe zone.
He's very familiar with the town he lives in; therefore, a sudden move would likely take him out of his safe zone.

An area or "zone" set up usually by colleges and or other types of academic institutions mostly for the Millennial or "cupcake" generation. Due to this generation of adults lacking any real ability to stand on their own two feet and lacking any ability to handle any type of criticism whether constructive or not, these spaces were erected so that Millennials can safely run and hide if they feel threatened by anything that older generations can take with stride. Also can be used by African-Americans who still think the "white man" owes them everything.
I cracked a joke about Matt's new blue hairdo and he promptly ran to the school safe zone where he proceeded to piss his pants and hug onto a teddy bear for 16 hours.

Get the safe zone mug.
A place where spoiled students cry about their issues and think it would be solved by just talking about it.

A zone where nobody ever gets hurt, knocked down, falls, or dies. Nobody disagrees over anything, argues, fights, or thinks differently. Everything is sterilized and functional, and vegan food is the only food because everyone else is wrong about what they eat and think, and danger is always someone else's fault.
The restaurant is a safe zone, and the country is becoming one. Nothing has to be based in reality in a safe zone, it's a zone where there is no suffering like in the real world.
