A "Waldo In The Cut" (male) or "Wanda In The Cut" (female) is a person who befriends someone in a romantic
relationship as well as thier romantic partner, and then waits patiently in the "friend zone" (decades even) until they can execute thier own romantic agenda in the target. They
may even take the target on "friend dates".
Some believe this style of passive micro
dating originated from women. There is no clear origin.
Girl: Didn'
t Jhene Aiko have a man when she started seeing Big
Sean?
Guy: Nah, he just took her to catch a basketball game just as friends. They weren't dating.
Girl: And now they ARE dating and dropping albums together. Big
Sean was really Waldo In The Cut.
Guy: Nah no way, they
love each other. Hey, do you want to go see Black Panther tonight?
Girl: Nah that's ok, I was gonna see it with Donny...
Guy: Of course. Let's go see Thor Ragnarok at the dollar show instead. Save some money. Donny is cool, I like him.
Girl: I haven't seen that either, I guess that's ok then. Let me grab my jacket...
Guy: Already grabbed it for you.
