Compromised Cringe

The internal confliction of when something is cringey but you don't say so because a person you're close to enjoys it.

This term originated on a Pewdiepie Minecraft livestream while discussing TikTok.

"If my grandma did a TikTok I'd be like, 'oh that's awesome!'- but inside I'm like, 'bro grandma that's so heckin cringe dude'."

"There needs to be a word for that feeling - compromised cringe!"

cringative

A person that cringes a lot. Not necessarily cringy but cringes to things a lot and over the top.
Comes from the connection between cringey and talky

Therefore the same principal comes from talkative and cringative

*Something minorly / not cringy at all happens*
Person 1: *cringes over the top*
Person 2: Person 1 is so cringative
Person 3: Yeah, ikr
