This is not fictional it really does exist. The bro-zone if very treacherous and fearsome. This is when a girl you like starts to call you bro. Girls will usually start doing this when they have a boyfriend and they want a shoulder to cry on that their boyfriend does not mind because you are like her "bro" or "brother" ,but after so long of being called bro a girl will get the mindset that you are her bro. When this happens your chance of dating that girl is gone forever. Friend-zone can usually be wiggled out of eventually.

The bro-zone can be stopped before it gets to serious. It usually works quite well also. The first time a girl calls you bro you stop them. When a girl needs a shoulder to cry on accept it sometimes. If you do this they will know youre trustworthy and not just their "brother." Make sure when you can't help the girl you have an alibi and witnesses.

It has been speculated that women do not endup in the friend zone as frequently as men. But where they may endup is in the Bro Zone.

Though some consider it a male version of the friend zone; it is widely accepted that the Bro Zone is worse for the poor women stuck in it.

In essence it is when a woman is crowned "one of the guys." She's considered to be part of the dude pack without the sexual tension. Men behave without restraint around the individual; not worrying about what the woman might think or wether they impress her or not. She is accepted and embraced into the pack as an equal. In short, "she's a dude."

Women may endup in the Bro Zone by any of the following: easy going, friendly, social, accepting but also obsession with sports, curses like a sailor, not too attractive, macho like characteristics, butch

Women with mostly male friends are more susceptible to have several Bro Zone's. Also, most women in the Bro Zone do have a love interest they fail to impress because of the Zone. They endup listening to their love interests' girlfriend problems and, at times, his sexual encounters. All culminating with him saying "you're such an awesome friend."
