Swamp Tiger
Term used to describe an extremely desperate, single college or high school student, looking for a boyfriend/girlfriend.
One who becomes obsessed with/stalks (primarily through Facebook), anyone who shows the slightest bit of interest in them.
Their "swamping" actions often lead to feelings of discomfort and fear in their desired target, similar to a tiger chasing its prey in the wild.
"Swamp Tigers" are completely oblivious to their prey's feelings of discomfort and fear, thus they exponentially try harder and harder each day, with less and less success.

Example 1:
JEFF: "Dude, this guy at the bar was so drunk and started hitting on Jen. The next day she was on Facebook looking up his profile, going through his pictures and checking out his events to see where he'd be on Saturday nights. It's been over a year and a half now and she's still trying to get him!!"
JOE: "Man! What a freaking swamp tiger!"
Example 2:
Michelle: "Hey Julie, did you know Greg was going to Cuba for spring break too?"
Julie: "Yah, Jen told me that she looked up tickets for him online, but I think Greg's staying in another city."
Michelle: "Yah, but she's going to go out of her way to see him there. She's gonna swamp his ass!"
Julie: "Isn't he going with his girlfriend??"
Michelle: "Yah, but that ain't stopping her. Jen's a freaking swamp tiger! She's gonna pounce on him the second his girlfriend looks away."
