Description

This term describes a specific dating phenomenon where someone who previously 'ghosted' you suddenly reappears and contacts you months or years later. It is called zombieing because the person effectively 'comes back from the dead' in your digital life. The reach-out is often casual, as if no time has passed and no explanation for the disappearance is needed.

Example

> I hadn't heard from him in six months, and then he just texted 'hey'—I'm officially being zombied.

> Zombieing is actually worse than ghosting because it forces you to relive the confusion all over again.
