Charity Replies

When on an online dating site or app, Charity Replies are when you start chatting with someone who otherwise does not find you attractive, but for some reason continues to reply feeling some sort of obligation. This usually results in ghosting or the friendly fade.
I was talking to this guy on POF. He obviously had no interest in me and was just giving me charity replies cause they were always just one word answers and he wouldn't reply for hours at a time. I can see when he's been online! Then one day he just kind of vanished...

Reply Stutter

To wait at least a minute before giving a minimal response to a message in order to discourage conversation. Used to avoid the guilt of completely ignoring a person.
Man 1 (9:00): Sup?
Man 2 (9:08): Sitting around.
Man 1 (9:08): Same here.
Man 1 logged off (9:12)

Man 2 thinking: thank god that reply stutter worked so quickly

reply trap

A trap used on social media to lure people into replying to the post. Usually stating that something has happened to the person posting, but does not state what. This causes curious readers to ask what happened to him/her. These statement are usually exaggerated and are used as a cry for attention.
Person 1: This girl just posted "UGH THE WORST THING JUST HAPPENED I HATE MY LIFE!" on Facebook
Person 2: Such a reply trap

selective replying

When those annoying girls on snap choose what to reply to and just leave you on open for 48 hours otherwise

Bro: Honestly she’s just selective replying at this point.
