Viscariously 

when you are hanging out with people that are doing questionable things and you have to be a part of it but don't want to get in trouble so you stand on the sidelines and watch with caution cause you just can't tear yourself away from the situation cause it looks like so much fun.

I wanted to join in the fun with my friends but I didnt want my girlfriend to get mad at me so I sat in the car and watched viscariously as several of them ended up getting hurt.

Vicuriously 

To hesitate with curiosity about someone you seek to live vicariously through.

Vicariously vacationing 

when co-worker overshares about all their enjoyable, fun, adventurous escapades while on vacation, while you are stuck at work, dreaming of you, yourself one day leaving the office to go on vacation.

Todd: If you could get that email out by 9 a.m., that would be great. By the way, I’m on a boat right now watching killer whales! So exciting, right?!!

Nicole: Sure, Todd. Sounds great. Sure wish I could stop vicariously vacationing through you and go to Fiji!

vicariously traumatized

When you didn’t go through a trauma but someone close to you did, so you are traumatized because they trauma dumped on you.

This relates to trauma being a factor of shock or unexpected outcomes, when things are not seen coming, they take more tact to adapt to.

This may or may not relate to people being in narcissistic states after going through a traumatic event initially.

See example:

Prom is a trap! I heard about Cindy getting dumped after giving up her v-card so I’ll be waiting until marriage, I’m vicariously traumatized!

vicariously traumatized

When you didn’t go through a traumatic event first hand, but someone close to you did and they trauma dumped on you, so now you’re in fear of the same thing happening to you.

This relates to how unexpected outcomes require more tact to recover from than outcomes we prepare for.

This may or may not be related to the narcissist nature the brain is left in from an initial traumatic event- sort of like a ripple impact of trauma until one transmutes the cycle

Prom is a trap! Ever since I heard Cindy got dumped after giving up her v-card I’ll be waiting until marriage, I'm vicariously traumatized!
