Words you can keep

Sideline Friend

You're the friend that can never make it to events and you often watch your best friends fall in love leaving you for a third wheel position. Then when they break-up, you're caught in the middle of friendships usually making you chose a friend over the other. You've lost a majority of your friends because they either moved or you lost contact with them. You're actually lonely although you have plenty of friends. You're not really open and you fear to lose your best friends or you don't want to get close and then lose them. So now you just watch from the sideline as sort of a cheerleader. You're close enough to be supportive and far enough to watch everything being played out and find your position among your friends. In all honesty, you want the hugs, hangout days, birthday parties, and movies days. But you don't want to deal with the emotions of losing them either to death or a break-off. You don't like taking risks in relationships which most likely is the reason you're single. A lot of girls/guys like you and you even have one person desperately wanting to be with you. But from you first Crush/Relationship you learned a hard lesson of following your head and not your heart. So From the sidelines, you will watch until the opportunity comes, as the Cheerleader.
I love my best friends but I can never make it to their performances. I hate being one the sidelines but ig I gotta stay.

Her and zack are back together now, time to get new friends I guess.#Sideline Friend

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
