Brand: Urban Dictionary
Price: 25.00 USD
Availability: InStock

A public social media post shared with the intention for one specific person to see. Often shared to either get a reaction/response, for stories/snaps to see if someone is lurking you, or testing if they muted/are ignoring you. Often occurring in situationships, bad break ups, ghosting and orbiting, unrequited love, or intense crushes based on a fantasy version of that person in your head.

(Put down the phone love, remove them as a follow and move on. You deserve better)

"stop checking who viewed your story" "I can't it's a Gatsby, I'm trying to see if my ex has viewed it or if he muted me"

"hey do you think is selfie is hot enough? I'm Gatsby Posting - shooting my shot by giving Tony a chance to fire emoji react o it but it has to be hot enough because if he only views it and doesn't react I will just DIE"
