Ghost call

Calling someone only to hang up either as soon as they pick up, or right before, for the sole purpose of getting their attention. Reasons for ghost calling may be to get a reply from a text or other message, or for a simple reminder of something.

Please note that ghost calling should only be done to close friends or other people who understand. Otherwise, it's totally creepy.

The ghost call can also be used on boyfriends, girlfriends, exes, or anyone else you feel like "checking up on." Just *67 the number so you can call anonymously. They won't suspect a thing!

(Can be used in both verb and noun form)
1.) "Yesterday, my friend wasn't checking his texts, so I gave him a ghost call to get his attention."

2.) Person A: "My girlfriend isn't answering any of my texts, yet always seems to have her phone on her. Do you think she's cheating on me?"
Person B: "Ghost call her. If she answers, you're probably in trouble. Don't forget to *67 that shit!"

Booty Call

A sexual act with someone who is ashamed to be associated with you in public. This is distinguished from prostitution or selling your body as you are so low on the food chain that the person seeking you for sexual gratification is unwilling to pay you for your services. Booty calls serve the desperate; i.e., individuals that cannot manage to convince another human to have sex with them on a regular basis.
Of course he likes me - he is just afraid of commitment because his ex cheated on him. Think about it - why would he take time out of his/her busy schedule to look me up for a Booty Call when he has time to stop by? We can't go out in public because he doesn't have time/money/freedom (insert excuse here) to take me anywhere. He won't let me take him out because he is too old-fashioned and has too much pride to allow me to pay for a date.
