Your word isn't here yet

Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like the English word "breadcrumbing" (same pronunciation)/

Meaning

Giving minimal signs of interest to keep someone hooked without any real intention of getting serious. Emotional breadcrumbs: a like here, a random message there, just enough so they don't forget you but never enough to move forward.

Examples

He's breadcrumbing me with likes and emojis but never actually plans anything.

Breadcrumbing is worse than ghosting.

Regional synonyms

In Mexico, intense anger or rage that burns inside you. Unlike the Spanish meaning of courage/bravery, Mexican coraje is pure fury, the kind that makes your blood boil.
