cloakflirting

Cloakflirting (verb) – When someone publicly belittles or bullies you, especially in a group setting, but privately flirts with you in a way that contradicts their public behavior. Cloakflirting can happen in real life or online, where a person may act mean in a group chat but flirt with you in direct messages.

I swear, Jake keeps roasting me in front of our friends, but the moment we’re alone, he’s all sweet and flirty. Total cloakflirting.
