Rubber-banding

The handicap given to CPUs in racing video games when one or more human players is ahead. This often plagues the less experienced human player, as they will be passed up by CPUs moving absurdly fast in an effort to maintain close proximity to the farther ahead human player.

Jordan is always so far ahead in Mario Kart that I need stars AND mushrooms just to match the speed that rubber-banding gives to the last place CPU.

Shadow Banding

A reactive emotional pattern that develops in response to the rubber band effect. When one partner repeatedly snaps back into the relationship, the other—wary of the cycle—begins forming secret emotional or romantic connections. Shadow banding is the quiet stretch: a hidden coping mechanism born from mistrust, grief, or emotional exhaustion. It’s not about cheating—it’s about survival when the relationship feels unstable or unsafe.

After she came back and ran off the girls I was dating, I started shadow banding—keeping quiet connections just in case she left again.
