compliment baiting

Not to be confused with compliment fishing, compliment baiting is the act of talking about oneself or their achievements, then pausing to wait for someone else to chime in to compliment them.

“when logan was telling his story he paused after he said he beat the guy talking shit to him during his match, he’s compliment baiting”

Smooch Bait

A woman at a bar or other social setting who is overly flirty but aggressively turns down any physical advances.

I thought she was into me, but when I tried to kiss her, she screamed "rape" and ran away.

Yeah, she did that to me too. She's total smooch bait.
