That weird emotional state where you feel unanchored, unsure, or just kinda... floating through life. Like, you're not drowning, but you're not exactly steering the ship either. You're just out there. In the vibes. On the emotional open sea.
That post-vacation, pre-back-to-work limbo? Boat feelings.
That 2 a.m. stare-at-the-ceiling moment? Boat feelings.
That “do I want to break up or just nap?” vibe? Boat. Feelings.
See also:
drifting • liminal space • soft existential crisis • main character in a coming-of-age indie film
Not to be confused with:
Sea sickness (though emotional nausea may apply)

Get the Boatingmug. A human tried to break into my house, I Went Full Boat. I need a new wall, and that human does need to be sprayed off my property.

Get the Full Boatmug. The Tow_Boat Method refers to when someone uses their hand to pull a stuck shit out of their constricted asshole.

Get the flesh boatmug. Like a ship but platonic! A friendship you really love and endorse or want to see happen. Usually the boat will give you tons of serotonin when they interact or hang out together.
