preemptive break up

A tactical move that involves a guy breaking up with a girl who he is not dating. The girl has confused their regular encounters and his enjoyment of them as romantic interest. The male, realizing that if keeps on hanging out with her he will be accused of "leading her on" even though he never had any romantic intentions at all, decides that he must tell her he doesn't have any interest. So without actually dating her, he is forced to break up with her, receiving all of the stress and crap of a relationship without having ever had any of the benefits, just so he won't be villainized for several months.

Jack - "Uhh Sue... it seems to me that you might like me... and well... uhhh... I just wanted you to know that I don't like you".

(extremely awkward moment)

Sue - "Oh"
Jack - "Sorry, I know this must feel like a preemptive break up, but I didn't want you to think I was... leading you on or anything"

Gay Guy B: Gross, he's so old he's like 35! Did he contact you?

Gay Guy A: No, I pulled a Preemptive Block before he could ever dare try to get with my hotness!

Gay Guy B: Nashty.

Preemptive Shite

Going to the toilet before it is necessary, preventing a later urge. Useful before going to movies or long journeys without pauses.

I'm just going for a preemptive shite, before The Dark Knight begins. I don't want to miss ANY of the action!

preemptive Christmas

The movement of both the radio and retail industry that will see stores set up for the holiday season and radio stations blare out Christmas music 24/7 usually starting around Halloween.

What's up with all the preemptive Christmas? Walmart's setting up trees, and I haven't gone trick-or-treating yet!

preemptive friend zone

Nice guys make up a disproportionate amount of preemptive friend zonees

Preemptive tuck

d1. the act of strategically situating one's penis prior to an inevitable erection in order to avoid embarrassment

d2. tucking your flacid dick somewhere not noticeable when you know you're about to get a boner

She's really cute and I know she's a long hugger so I did a preemptive tuck into the waistband before we said goodbye.
