faux-slut. A girl who gives off the allusion of being an easy lay. So you take her somewhere only to be faced with the devastating reality that she just has very seductive eyes.
I got blue-balled last night until I could not feel my life. I thought for sure I was going to get laid. What a fauxlut!

fauxletarian 

Falsely claiming to be of a lower socio-economic or working class in order to appear humble, hide true wealth, dodge responsibility, or deflect criticism about an easy life.

Portmanteau of 'faux' and 'proletarian' - fauxletariat can be used for a collection of fauxletarians.
He is such a fauxletarian! He makes 90k a year at an easy corporate job, but rages against the machine and goes on and on about his working class credentials.

She likes to tell everyone she is a starving student, but sends her mother's maid to the thrift store for 'real' clothes. Fauxletarian!

fauxlite 

fō'līt adj.

Fake politeness, usually displayed in public settings. People who are fauxlite are perceived to be very sweet and innocent by their casual friends, but can be devious, manipulative and mean. A fauxlite person's true colors only shine through by accident, or are demonstrated to those in their circle of trust -- a.k.a. their family. Also, those who see through this facade are coldly received by the fauxliter. **Friends rarely, if ever, believe that a fauxliter could ever be anything but nice and kind.**

Fauxliters are often martyrs who decline any offer of help/assistance (so as not to impose), laugh really loud and overzealously at jokes, buy/make random gifts, and say yes to almost anything their friends ask of them.
Michelle: My mom is such a jerk. She called me a thief and a liar and was yelling at me on the phone today.

Gary: No way! Your mom is SO nice! She baked me a cake for no reason. She would never say those things!

Michelle: Oh please! She is so fauxlite it makes me want to vomit. You just don't see it because you're not related to her.

Fauxlationship 

A relationship that isn't a "real" relationship (i.e. "We're going out. You are my --- and I am your ---"), but attempts to carry on as one, albeit half-heartedly, despite this fact.

Note: this is not the same as people who define their relationship as an "open relationship", as fauxlationships lack sturdy titles of any sort.

This is similar to FWB, except that the "couple" pretends to be more exclusive than they actually are. They may go on "fauxdates" with each other (like a romantic outing to McDonalds). They don't want to commit actual time and money to go on real DATE dates, but they want to occasionally pretend to do so (usually for the sake of one partner's feelings). They might entertain the idea of being in a real relationship with one another, but the idea never comes to fruition.

Fauxlationships almost always carry on for much longer than they need to, and frequently lead to messy "faux-breakups" (wherein it feels like a break up, but they shouldn't be so upset, because they were never actually dating in the first place).
She and I have a lot in common. We go to the same school, we like the same band, we have a class together. We hang out at each other's houses, and we occasionally have sex. I want to date her, but she doesn't LIKE like me, and doesn't want to get tied down. We'll rent movies sometimes, but she doesn't want to go out in public with me in case anybody thinks we're actually going out. I would complain about our fauxlationship, but at least it's sort of like having quality time with her.

Fauxlationship 

A temporary relationship to relieve emptiness caused by the lack of a real relationship. Also used to describe relationships with no commitment. Not a very responsible idea.
I don't trust her man, it looks like a fauxlationship to me.
