A roommate who is never at home. Pops in every now and then and grabs some of their shit, and then disappear again for an undetermined amount of time. You might also hear random noises in your house when you think you're alone, much like a ghost, but it is in fact a rare appearance by your ghostmate.
Jim: How come whenever I come over, Mike isn't home?
Adam: because he's a ghostmate. He only pops in every now and again, and each time he does, it spooks the hell out of me.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
