'The Friend Zone' is a term that gets thrown around a lot as if every relationship to which the term applies is exactly the same. I like to think of it as a spectrum. On one end is where guys think that just by being nice to a girl, she should reward him with sex. On the other end is when a girl knowingly leads a guy on, taking advantage of his friendship and affection. Of course, you can swap/mix genders as necessary.
