PMA (Paranoid Miscommunication Afterthought) 

A period of silence in the middle of a digital chat or after an email you sent, where you fear that something you said might have been horribly misconstrued
OMG, having a massive PMA (Paranoid Miscommunication Afterthought) after telling Jackie that I'd be interested in having No Strings Attached (NSA) sex with her - does she now think I'm not interested in her? Does she think I'm a player and this is my style? Should I clarify on our date tonight? Are we even on for tonight? Why won't she respond on BB IM? Why won't she answer my calls now? How do I make it right? Arghhh!!!
