Delayed catfish

You swipe right. This person looks pretty appealing. You eventually agree to meet in person and to your tickling delight, this person looks exactly how they did online! The conversation is engaging and she even enjoys star wars, hiking and gaming conventions!

2 months later when you've confessed your undying love, she stops exercising and starts demolishing a party sized packet of chips by herself while watching reality television.

She's comfortable.

She's established a nest.

She's showing her true colours.

She delayed catfished you.
"Mate everything was going well until a few months into the relationship. She's not into hiking at all and has really let herself go. I think this is who she really is!"

"Yeah bro, sounds like you got delayed catfished."

Therapeutic Delay

When a person in an ER waiting room has to wait long enough to be seen, they get frustrated, and realize just how 'not sick' they are and storm out of there, only to call their doctor to get in to be seen, like they should have done in the first place.
The patient with cold symptoms had to wait 2 hours to be seen in the ER, and left after the therapeutic delay cured them.
