When the “crush” has no intentions of taking things further, but they like the attention. So they flirt here or there, send dm/texts just to keep the person interested, knowing damn well they’re staying single.
Danielle was so flirty the other night, he messaged me 3 times just to say hello, I think he’s coming around.

No Susan he’s breadcrumbing you just so you’ll keep nibbling at his heels.

When someone gives you tid bits of information on someone or something as to manipulate your feelings and opinions about it. It is a shady way to behave and used by the most opportunistic of individuals.

The information is always for their benefit because they don’t care about you. No authentic person breadcrumbs.
Casey is always breadcrumbing. She only tells part of the story and wants me to hate Jonathan. What a fake friend!

A user friendly folder/path listing often found on internet forums or online listings. each word in the list is a clickable link that will take you back to that page.

The breadcrumb is a means of getting back to previous pages without having to use your browsers back button. It is usefull on some websites where previous pages have expired and you cannot access them with the browsers back button.

the term breadcrumb is taken from the childrens story Hansel and Gretel in which the children dropped a trail of bread crumbs so that they could find their way back "home".
