Accepting nothings going to change in a situation where your relationship/ situationship is slowly depleting or you are being mistreated but you don't do anything about it due to loving the person too much. “To stay too long in a situation due to reluctance to leave”.

A known saying from The Cranberries song “linger”
“She loved him too much to end the relationship so she just let it linger.”

Toot It And Let It Linger 

When someone (preferably a guy who has a girlfriend) leads a person on (an innocent girl who falls for the guy but cares he has a girlfriend) and does things with him. it could be from just sexting to actually having sex but he tells her that she isn't allowed to tell anyone because of his girlfriend. And when the guy gets what he wants (or doesn't) he does't exactly dump the girl because they were never going out because he had a girlfriend, but just stops texting her everyday and never answers her texts or stops going up to talk to her. this isn't tooting it and booting it because the guy will still talk to the girl but when he does he acts like nothing ever happened and expects her to do the same
Naj "hey cori can i give you a hug tomorrow?" Cori "sure?" Naj "can i give you two hugs tomorrow?" Cori "sure" Naj " just sure?" cori "sure" Naj " can i have a butt touch?"

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
