When someone goes to the gym and spends 90% of the time on their phones scrolling through social media

An Outsider, usually a new kid at school who will follow the popular friend groups around without actually being one of them. The Friend group actually hate the Latcher and the best thing they can do is to tell him to go away and never latch on again. The Latcher usually comes from a background where they have been ignored by parents, peers and everyone else in society. Therefore they cling onto anyone they can find, rather like a parasite or a leech. It would be fair to call a Latcher a leech.

Someone not in a group of friends who tries to become one of them by following them around all the time. The group of Friends hate the Latcher but are sometimes too afraid to say it to his face so he continues to latch onto them. It is important to ignore the Latcher, also known as a Leech and hope for him to go away. If you notice a Latcher tagging along then it is easier to ditch him earlier rather than later. The worst Latcher known to man is Adam Barnett.

someone who thinks you're friends with them, but you're not. they're annoying, weird, stupid, boring, everything you wouldn't want a friend to be. they follow you everywhere, and they want to be just like you. if you have a latcher, drop them immediately, duh.
