You’re online dating using tinder or hinge or whatever app and you’re getting along with someone, eventually you get their number and set a date but instead of ghosting you they put you on the bench while they talk to someone else to see who is better worthy of your time and effort making ‘you’ a benchwarmer.
Bro I got this girls number and I asked her out for Saturday night and she said yes.. it’s been three days since I’ve heard from her but I think we are still on, should I ask or do you think I’m being benched?

the act of remaining online and on call as an alternate member of your guild's raid in an MMORPG (e.g. World of Warcraft). this usually involves staying out of all other groups while at the level cap. it has been found to be very unpleasant, as it involves wasting time in the game that you've already wasting playing the game.
There are way too many death knights that are better geared than me attending the raid. Now I'm benching in case someone doesn't show or has to log. In the meantime I can't run any heroics to increase my status as a badge whore.
