Houseplanting 

Overanalyzing or creating discontentment in relationships, friendships, life, or other things when the actual cause of unhappiness is similar to the needs of a houseplant, like not getting enough Vitamin D or drinking enough water.

Jamie: Did you hear that Gary was really sad today? Apparently life isn't serving him all that well after all.
Oliver: He's just houseplanting. Get him some food and a nap and he'll be fine.

houseplaining 

When a house music track teaches you a lesson using samples. House likes to get a little preachy, so be prepared to learn about style, what house music is, how to move, and other related topics.

Thank God for the houseplaining in "My House" - without it I'd never know how to find the key to the wiggly worm. See "My House" by Chuck Roberts on youtube.

House-planting

The act of providing your partner with a few minutes of attention each day only to then ignore them for a few days following this, then after a few days giving them a few more minutes of attention and so the loop continues.

Similar to the watering of a house plant, you water it for a minute only to then pretend it no longer exists until it needs watering again.

''I'm so sick of Dan, I get home from work and he's all over me for literally five minutes and then its like I don't exist for the rest of the week, he's totally house-planting me!!''
