Simp
Stable🌍UniversalDefinition
Someone who does way too much for a person they like, often without getting any attention in return. Can be used jokingly among friends or as a genuine insult.
Translation for Parents
A simp is someone who's excessively devoted to someone who doesn't reciprocate. Think: buying expensive gifts for someone who doesn't text back. Your kid's friends roast each other with this constantly. It's their generation's version of 'whipped.'
Examples
“He bought her flowers and she didn't even say thanks, total simp”
“He bought her flowers and she ignored him. He's trying too hard.”
“I'm not simping, I just think she's cool”
“I'm not being overly devoted, I genuinely just like her”
Cringe Score
Mildly embarrassing
Calling your husband a simp when he brings you coffee is acceptable married-couple humor. Calling your kid a simp is... risky but potentially hilarious.
