Leading someone on

To use someone for love or manipulate their feelings for attention or other selfish reasons.

To persuade someone into believing something is not true. Most of the time, Love, attention, money or other things are the reason.

In some cases, the person who is leading the other on might be in a relationship. That is twice as bad. I am sorry.
Gabe: "Alexander was leading Katrina on for months and she didn't even know!"
Alexander: "I was bored. I have a girlfriend already."
Helen: "Oh wow-"

Adrian: "Leading someone on is such a terrible thing to do. What's wrong with you?"

Larding

The act of extreme, almost performative laziness, expressed by lying or slouching so relaxed and spread out that one appears excessively heavy or inert.

A state of indulgent inactivity: doing nothing productive, often idly consuming content, or otherwise rotting away.
"I planned to do something today, but I ended up larding around for three hours instead."

"Jonathan is such a larder. He never wants to do anything."

"I don’t feel like doing anything today. I just wanna lard around."

Double-Lending

When you're finished with a flesh light and you lend it out to two of your best friends, without letting the other person know.

Queer-leading

The widespread fan observance of a fanon queer (relation)ship as part of an accepted body of work in a piece of media due to an a priori assumption that the characters within the fanon (relation)ship are or will be confirmed queer and circular argumentation where the inevitability/conclusion of the (relation)ship is assumed as true, often to convince or mislead a non-viewing audience that the show includes and delivers on queer representation.

Queer-leading is done in place of providing or supporting actualized queer representation in media and often leads to the phenomenon where individuals begin engaging with a piece of media expecting queer representation and then get disappointed when media that never promised queer representation fails to deliver on that representation.
Person 1: "I can't believe ABC's 9-1-1 keeps queerbaiting us! How can it give us bi-Buck, but not canon buddie?"
Person 2: "Girl, that's not queerbaiting; it's queer-leading. 9-1-1 and ABC never promised canon buddie; fans on Twitter just misled you into thinking it was endgame."
