A very attractive, handsome man. An informal compliment that can be sweet between couples or bold when aimed at strangers. Common in Mexico, Colombia, and Venezuela.

Thinking too much about something until you drive yourself crazy with your own brain without finding a solution. It's the torturous mental loop that won't leave you alone and has you going in circles about the same thing with no way out.

Keeping someone as a romantic backup option without committing but without letting them go either. Like having a player on the bench: they don't play but you don't release them just in case you need them.

Discreetly, secretly, or in a moderate way without wanting to draw attention. When you like something but don't want to openly admit it and keep a low profile about it. Borrowed directly from English and used widely by younger Spanish speakers across Latin America and Spain.
