Usually friend zone is a form of rejection, but the following also agrees with what Sarge said.
I offer these excerpts from The Rational Male regarding a woman who tells you Let's Just Be Friends (LJBF):
Quote:The LJBF rejection is a social convention that has classically ensured a woman can reject a man yet still maintain his previous attention.
...this situation is analogous to men using women as "fuck buddies" — fulfilling all his sexual availability needs with no expectations of reciprocating commitment.
...this positions the new "friend" into being the 'emotionally supportive' Beta counterpart to the indifferent Alpha she'll consistently bang and then complain about—also popularly known as the Emotional Tampon.
This book will slap you in the face but it's full of truths that most men are not willing to accept.
Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty only because there is ugliness.
All can know good as good only because there is evil.
