Next best thing syndrome

This is someone ,male or female,who claim to be in a relationship with only you ,but keeps you hidden from others. They do this is order to still appear single ,so they can continue to be sneaky on social media and dating sites. They will tell you they are a private person in order to not acknowledge your relationship with them publicly. You will never meet their family or friends .In reality, they are hiding multiple relationships with the opposite sex online .
These afflicted with this syndrome are usually a narcissist ,who tends to be loud , attention seeking, sneaky,and constantly plays the victim role to gain your sympathy . They are also selfish, entitled, and always thirsty for compliments and praise from multiple people in order to feed their fragile ego.
When you get suspicious and confront them about their behavior ,they will gas light you.
They will double down on the lies ,even after you present evidence of screen shots of said lies. They will move onto the next best thing, because they sense you are pulling away from them . Once you end the relationship ,they will quickly , generally within days , go public with the next best thing, in order to get one last dig in.

one thing led to another

Conversation glosser-over.

See also; yada yada

Mostly used as a substitue to sexual descriptions, it can also serve to shorten or skip over parts of conversations. It allows the listener to fill in the blanks themselves with their imagination.


The phrase was used recently as a lyric in an Urban Hip-Hop Song; "Holidae In".

Chingy: "One thing leadin to anotha, let the party begin!"

thin

n.) Something girls (for some odd reason) aspire to be above all else, to the exclusion of healthy meals, self-confidence, and common sense. It is a vague goal that all females pursue, and that many would probably die for, at least in America. The male gender, having beheld this phenomenon of female obsession, has adapted to consider it attractive, causing the girls to want to be more so and strive desperately to shrink further. The guys are trained to think this is more attractive, and the cycle continues. There is a theory that the entire female race will someday starve into oblivion due to America's furthering of the obsession, and then homosexuals will rule the earth. However, this is a worst-case scenario, and hopefully shall not come to pass. But as long as supermodels exist, this apocalyptic attack of anorexia is a possibility.
Girl: Am I thin enough?
Guy: You're fine the way you are.
Girl: AHHH! You're trying to reassure me because I'm fat! I have to go on a diet now!
