Workpacker

A workpacker is a backpacker tourist who carries laptops and other internet enabled mobile devices so they could do work while on vacation.

During my recent visit to a resort location, I found that more than half of the visitors were "workpackers" (I must admit it was ugly to see so many people gazing at their laptop screens sitting in open areas, in a beach resort! Then, I looked at myself - I was no different!).

Platonic Crush

The intense desire to follow someone on social media sites while resisting the temptation to add them as friends.

Someone told me she had been following my Facebook feeds over a year. I sent her a friend request, but she politely declined. She messaged me that was not the direction she wished to take. I think she has got a platonic crush on me.

Hypertextia

An overwhelming desire to text someone.

My urge to text her is so much so that it cannot even wait until I receive a reply for my previous text. I cannot eat, sleep, or talk to someone else before texting her. I guess I am suffering from a condition called hypertextia.

Soulporn

Something that gives ecstasy for your soul.

Walking by the seaside in the late evening, in the company of the moonlight and the sound of sea waves, lulled by the sea breeze, gave her soul a deep sense of pleasure - her soul was excited by the soulporn of this combination.

Altergamy

A deep, exclusive connection between two people who are not married to each other, but choose each other with the kind of loyalty and devotion that marriage usually implies.

Altergamy is when you’re not each other’s spouse, but you are each other’s one.
It’s not official. It’s not public. But it’s real. You don’t stay because you must—you return, because you want to.
