What is breadcrumbing?

This entry describes breadcrumbing as small, irregular signs of interest that keep another person hoping, without a real plan to meet or to define the tie. It notes that a busy week is not the same pattern, and that the crumbs are not a relationship that has simply not been scheduled yet.

What this entry does not do

It does not replace the entry on ghosting, and it does not describe how to keep someone waiting.
