When your crush ignores you, but
still occasionally texts you to don't forget about him/her/them.
The term comes from
Clippy,
Microsoft's most hated virtual assistant.
- I
thought he's not interested in me, but he texted me last night and left me on
read, again. He has been doing this for a month now and I don't
know what should I do with his mixed signals.
- Just dump him, he's totally paperclipping you.
