slowmance 

(1) a romantic relationship that progresses slowly, either by design or naturally;
(2) a relationship in which both parties have already determined each other desirable, and see each other often, however the natural progression towards more serious discussion and physical expression is retarded;
(3) a slow romance
(1) It's been a month and Jack still hasn't spent the night with that girl he's dating -- it's a slowmance.
(2) So she eagerly invited me back to her place, but then kicked me out a little while later. That’s cool though, I’m okay with it being a slowmance.

Slowmance 

When a romantic relationship is moving slower than dead people. One person is generally aware, and pissed off. The other is totally oblivious and waiting for the "right moment" to take things further.
Guy1- Dude, you and Kate have been going out for like two years! Maybe it's time you kissed her?

Guy2- I'll do it when I'm ready, okay?

Guy1- Jeez, bro, how much longer will you keep up this damn slowmance?

slowhanded 

To have been banned from a message board and have had any and all evidence of your existence on that board removed permanently, usually done without warning, notification, or explanation. Origins: from the bbs handle of a customer of Nebraska football message board (slowhand) who was one the first recipients of such action on that board, soon to be followed my many other customers of that board who began to use the term "slowhanded" to describe the action
Because the site administrator didn't like fans who could actually make a cogent argument, he was slowhanded.

The brief but intense relationship formed between strangers undertaking similar acts in the snow. This could encompass the respectful nod between two people Suicycling, talking to neighbours you have never spoken to as you shovel driveways, or asking the man beside you if he wants to grab a beer after pushing a stranded motorist's vehicle. Most snowmantic relationships are fleeting.
I got three hugs off separate strangers today. Snowmance is in the air.

showmance 

When actors engage in a romance for the run of a show.
Once the run is over so is the romance.
The term originated in the theater and moved to movies and scripted television and then reality television.
The term has now moved to the populace to discribe any contrived romance.
Dude 1: I didn't know Anthony and Cicely were dating.
Dude 2: It's just a showmance, Cicely is just dating Anthony just to make Edgar jealous.

Dude 1: I didn't know Anthony and Cicely were dating.
Dude 2: They're not. It's just a showmance, Anthony is gay.

Liz: Hey Kathy, you know Dave went camping with the boys last night and totally blew me off?

Kathy: Yea... i was curious about it too. Tom went...When I randomly dropped by it was just a bunch of guys deep in bonding rituals looking annoyed at me... Do you think that's normal?

Liz: I dunno... it's been happening every weekend.

Kathy: Dave gets out of his bed at 3 in the morning to talk to Tom...to go grab a bite randomly cuz he's hungry?

Liz: *sigh* What you want me to do? It's not like it's a woman he's talking to... they're bffs... How do I argue that case without telling Dave i think he's gay? :/

Kathy: Well at least we can seek consolation in our little sromance.
