dating

• Play hard to get

  To act aloof or uninterested in someone, often in a romantic context, to make oneself seem more desirable and increase their pursuit.

• Sliding into DMs

  To send a private direct message to someone on social media, often with the intention of flirtation, romance, or to initiate a personal connection.

• Short-term relationship

  A romantic or sexual liaison that is brief in duration and typically lacks a long-term commitment.
