A word used between two people who clearly like each other but refuse to admit it directly.
When someone does something cute, kind, funny or
sweet, the other person calls them "annoying" as a defensive reaction to unexpected feelings.
The word replaces compliments because openly saying "that was
adorable" is so 2015.
In this context, "annoying" actually means: charming,
sweet, funny, caring, or/and anything slightly dangerous to one's emotional stability.
The more "annoying" someone is, the more they are PROBABLY liked
