The term “The Slide” refers to the act of casually sliding into someone’s direct messages (DMs) on social media platforms without their prior consent or invitation. It typically involves initiating a conversation or pursuing personal interaction with someone who may not be expecting or necessarily interested in such communication.
Example 1:
Person A: Hey, did you see Lisa’s new profile picture? She looks amazing!
Person B: Yeah, she does! I should totally do The Slide and send her a message complimenting her.
Person A: Be careful, man. She might find it weird if you just randomly DM her.
Example 2:
Person X: I didn’t expect to receive a message from this guy I barely know. He’s trying to do The Slide on me!
Person Y: Ugh, that’s annoying. Some people don’t understand boundaries when it comes to DMs.
Person X: Absolutely, it’s important to respect others’ space and not intrude like that.
