Linguistic construct that allows the speakers to say everything backwards. Also incorporates saying "You won't" to dare somebody to do something, or pointing to something and saying "not that" to call attention to it
You won't not not come to my not birthday party, you wouldn't dare do that, I'm not talking in the Negative you actually won't come to my party

The act of insulting, deriding, or otherwise putting down of an individual or group by another in an attempt to shake, crack, and eventually crumble their inherent confidence and fortification of self.
Although commonly defined strictly as geared toward women by pickup artists, fuckbois and other douchebag types, the activity is universal in that it is implemented by and against people of all types, genders, etc and does not adhere to any one demographic.

Person 1: I don't get why people feel the need to put me down as soon as they look at me.
Person 2: They're Negging you. They probably see how you carry yourself and, based on internal insecurities that they refuse to acknowledge, arrive at the conclusion that you're too confident and need to be knocked down a peg.
Person 1: But I've never even met them before. And I'm not even as confident as I'd like to be.
Person 2: Doesn't matter if you are or not, you look it to them, that's what they perceive and hence that is what they are going to act on. Maybe stroke up a conversation with them and try to clear that up.

Low-grade insults meant to undermine the self-confidence of a woman so she might be more vulnerable to your advances. This is something no decent guy would do. They say that the assholes get the girls, but I can spot negging a mile away and I reject these fuckers straight off.
Everywhere there is an insecure pretty girl, there is some guy negging.
Negging can be so subtle, it's pratically undetectable.
I was wondering why that guy was complimenting me while putting me down. He was negging of course.

A light insult wrapped in the package of a complement. Used by pick-up artists to gain and maintain the attention of women who possess uncommon beauty (9+). These women are immune to standard complements.
The classic neg
pua - "you have beautiful nails, are they real?"
(9+) -"not really"
pua - "Oh, I guess thats still cool"
pua - "that's really cute, your nose wiggles when you speak"
(9+) -"no it doesn't"
pua - "ha ha, there it goes again, sorry, its just really cute"
"I just kept tossing neg after neg at that 10 standing by the bar, and she loved it, she was giving me crazy kino"
